SUMMARY:Call for Proposals | TFAP@CAA 2026 Affiliated Society Session
DESCRIPTION:TFAP@CAA Call for Proposals\nCAA 114th Annual Conference\, Chicago\, February 18–21\, 2026 \nThe Feminist Art Project Affiliated Society Session\nDeadline: August 29\, 2025\nFeminist\, Queer\, and Trans Art Activists in Action! \nChairs:\nJoanna P. Gardner-Huggett\, DePaul University\nConnie Tell\, The Feminist Art Project \nPLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL FOR THIS IN-PERSON PANEL.\nCAA MEMBERSHIP & CONFERENCE REGISTRATION REQUIRED FOR ACCEPTED PRESENTERS. \nImportant dates:\nAugust 29th\, deadline for proposal submissions\nSeptember 16th\, notification of accepted proposals \nFor nearly twenty years\, The Feminist Art Project has supported intersectional and inter-generational conversations regarding feminist\, queer and trans activist art practices. Understanding the rich history of these collective tactics remains instrumental for continued organizing against political oppression and providing essential services to female-identifying individuals. For instance\, in the 1970s\, the arpilleristas produced embroidered narratives denouncing Chile’s totalitarian regime\, while in the 1980s the Greenham Commons Women’s Peace Camp demanded an end to nuclear proliferation. In the 1990s\, Chicago’s Sister Serpents engaged in guerrilla sticker and poster campaigns calling out misogyny and sexual violence and the Dyke Action Machine focused on lesbian agitprop in New York City. In 1999\, the Dutch organization Women on Waves was founded to provide reproductive health services in regions where it is not safe or available\, and in 2001\, LaGender Inc. was established to support the trans health of women of color in the metro Atlanta area. As the voices of feminist\, queer\, and trans artists\, activists\, and scholars are being silenced in this political moment globally\, this session seeks presentations by artists and scholars examining current or historical examples of activist art practices that offer models of protest and mutual aid\, especially work overlooked in current art historical scholarship. \nThe CAA Annual Conference is the largest convening of art historians\, artists\, designers\, curators\, and visual arts professionals. Each year CAA offer sessions submitted by members\, committees\, and affiliated societies that deliver a wide range of program content. The CAA 114th Annual Conference will take place in Chicago Hilton February 18–21\, 2026.

SUMMARY:CFP: "Language and Text in Feminist Art Part III: East\, South-East\, and Central Asia\, Asian Diasporas" / CAA 2026 Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Seeking presentation proposals from art historians\, writers\, and artists. The CAA 114th Annual Conference will take place on February 18-21\, 2026 in Chicago. In order to allow and encourage participation of scholars and artists from Asia\, without the need to travel at great personal and ecological cost\, our session will convene remotely. On the CAA CFP page you can find the session abstract (also pasted in below)\, watch instructional video\, and click to upload your proposal: a 250-words-long abstract and a short bio. You can also include images. The deadline to apply is August 29. \nTHE SESSION ABSTRACT: \nLanguage and Text in Feminist Art Part III: East\, South-East\, and Central Asia\, Asian Diasporas \nThis session examines artworks exploring language from a gendered perspective—a subject that has lacked comprehensive treatment—to inspire new research in feminist art. It will analyze ways in which women (cis or queer) employ text and language as a means of feminist critique\, across art mediums. \nThere is a stubborn belief that feminist art focuses on the image of the body. Meanwhile\, the core of feminist art is conceptual and social practice; art that is designed not just to be looked at\, but also to be acted upon. Text- or language-based art—including what Hélène Cixous called écriture feminine—has been its crucial component as women probe their erasure from historical texts\, objectification in law\, the experience of speaking a language as racialized and sexualized subjects\, or the male-centrism of language\, including AI and the internet. \nThe session is the last in the series of three; part of broader research that seeks to fill a gap in literature about feminist language-based art by privileging transnational\, multigenerational\, and intersectional comparisons\, globally. The first session in 2024 provided a comparative perspective on the Middle East and North Africa; part II—on Latin America and the Caribbean. Part III in 2026 seeks scholarly analyses and artists’ presentations with a focus on the Far East\, Central Asia\, and Asian diasporas. Of equal interest are proposals regarding artists representing cultures where oral expression and poetry dominate the written\, and those engaging with ancient traditions of calligraphy and secret languages of women; both sound-based and text-based projects. \nChair: Monika Fabijanska
