Regional Conference 2011
A River Runs Through It: Perception vs. Reality TV, Inconvenient Truths and Other Re actions on the Battle of the Alamo
September 29-October 1, 2011
San Antonio, Texas | Hosted by University of Texas at San Antonio with Southwest School of Art
Like a river, the photographic image runs through many artistic media. As a resource, a point of inspiration, a means to an end, a supporting element, or a final product in its own right, its power is undeniable. At times taking us on meandering journies, other times challenging us with swift currents, images provide a fertile soil from which artistic meaning may grow. The planning committee welcomes submissions for panels, lectures, imagemaker presentations, graduate student presentation, and demonstrations that celebrate the photographic medium and its ability to bridge artistic media.
The 2011 conference schedule is now available here.
