🔥“Modernism Remodelled” is back in 2024!! This conference seeks to bring together scholars, creatives, & arts-based researchers working on topics related to modernism and/or the contemporary cultural scenes that may have risen from the modernist period, such as literary studies, psychology, musicology, art studies, architecture, philosophy, film studies, media studies and beyond. Send us your proposals by Jan 21! Proposal form and full cfp on https://t.co/uJujqogwHm Call for Papers: If we look at today’s cultural, political, and scientific scene, we find that the pandemic, social and political unrest, technological and medical breakthroughs, new trends in poetry, a renewed interest in classicism and mythology (to name a few) resonate with an era not long ago. We detect a familiar pattern, which can be seen as a recurrence of, or maybe even an extension to the modernist period. Perhaps, as designer Ellen Lupton put it, “A second modernism has emerged, reinvigorating the utopian search for universal forms that marked the birth of design as a discourse and a discipline nearly a century earlier.” Thus, we would like to explore the following questions: Can we say that we experiencing a sequel to, or a “second wave” of #modernism today? What happened to some of the movements and schools of thought that were born during the #modernist period? How have some of them evolved? How have they contributed to the cultural scene today, in both the sciences and the arts? We welcome 15-minute presentations on comparative studies & research topics related to a full range of approaches to contemporary trends in (but not limited to) the following fields: - 🖼️ Modernist art movements (#surrealism, #cubism, #impressionism, #futurism, #vorticism, etc) -⛓️ Breaking away from conventions (such as in art, lifestyle, etc.) - 🧠 #Psychoanalysis - 📜 #Philosophy - 🎶 #Music - 📚 #Literature - 🎥 #Media - 🏛️#Architecture & #design - 🙏#Spirituality - ✍️ Experimentation with language & form - 💣Inter-War periods - 🌠Historical comparisons - 🧵The emergence of #creative collectives - 🗞️ The effects of modernism on contemporary society Full info and proposal form on: https://t.co/uJujqogwHm
