Twenty-Second International Conference on the Arts in Society
- Peripheral Visions: Art Beyond the Centre
- 9-11 June 2027
- University of Western Australia, Perth, Australia + Online
The Arts in Society Research Network offers an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of the role of the arts in society. It is a place for critical engagement, examination, and experimentation, developing ideas that connect the arts to their contexts in the world – on stage, in studios and theaters, in classrooms, in museums and galleries, on the streets and in communities. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
The Twenty-Second International Conference on the Arts in Society features research addressing the following annual themes and special focus.
The Twenty-Second International Conference on the Arts in Society will feature plenary sessions by some of the world’s leading thinkers and innovators in the field. We will offer both place-based and online options for viewing and engaging.
