For anyone interested in presenting at the Southeastern College Art
Conference, this sounds like a great opportunity to speak about a watershed
exhibition in our area (forwarded from another list).

Exhibitions


A quick plug for a SECAC session.  The deadline to submit proposals for
SECAC’s 2013 conference is April 20, 2013, midnight, EDT. A list of
available sessions and instructions for submission can be found
https://secac.memberclicks.net/assets/documents/secac/conference/secac_2013_call_for_papers.pdf



I would like to call special attention to a session that I am
co-chairing: *Rethinking
Watershed Exhibitions*



Certain exhibitions are widely recognized as turning points or touchstones
in the history of art; while not alone, the Armory Show of 1913, which
celebrates its 100th anniversary this year, is notable in this regard. The
Armory Show of 1913, upheld as a watershed in the history of American art,
was the first large scale display of works of European modernism in the
U.S. Other shows are likewise recognized as having radical historical
impacts such as the Nazi's *Degenerate Art* *and Great German
Art*exhibitions in Munich in 1937, as well as the Museum of Modern

Art's *Primitivism* show in 1984 and the subsequent *Magiciens de la
Terre*show in Paris in 1989. This panel aspires to bring together
papers that
(re)consider either the initial impact or historiographical role of
historically significant exhibitions including, but not limited to, those
mentioned above, in order to gain a better understanding of the role that
exhibitions play in art historical narratives.
