Art and its Contexts: Cross-Disciplinary Dialogue
Cluj-Napoca, Romania, 4 - 6 September 2014

The Research Network Sociology of the Arts aims to provide the
sociological context for understanding the multifaceted and interwoven
social aspects which characterize the art worlds. The focus of this
conference will be on sociological approaches to art and their tense but
promising relations with other approaches by cultural studies, art
history, philosophy and aesthetics. Therefore, researchers from all social
sciences disciplines, philosophy and the humanities, as well as PhD
students and artists who are interested in inter- and trans-disciplinary
dialogue are welcome to participate in this conference.

The organizers would like to create special sessions and invite papers on
this theme with the expectation that they may include a broad nexus of
sub-issues around alternative approaches to art and its contexts, the
social and the aesthetic, willing to cross the divide between sociology
and aesthetics. The ESA RN Sociology of the Arts conference has always
been open to other themes that are not related to the main theme. This
openness is highly valued since the Research Network aims to bring
together researchers and support interchange and mutual learning. For this
reason, the programme will be thematically broad and open for
presentations to all core areas of arts sociology (development in
particular domains in arts, the process of production, distribution,
promotion and commercialization of works of art, the process of
presentation and mediation of arts etc.).

The Call for Papers is thematically broad and it includes various topics
of arts sociology. Researchers from all social sciences disciplines,
philosophy and the humanities, as well as PhD students and artists, who
are interested in inter- and trans-disciplinary dialogue, are welcome to
participate in this conference.

The deadline for abstract submission is 15 February 2014, the acceptance
of abstracts will be notified by 31 March 2014. Registration opening is on
1 April 2014, registration deadline for presenting authors is 31 May 2014.
