CAA Conference 2013

[BuddingScholar]

I am out of the country this time, and was wondering if anyone here attended CAA this year?  If so, would you care to share what you liked, did not like as much, etc?  Any interesting new work? etc, etc, etc.

I did! It was my first time, so I took it easy so as not to overwhelm myself. My favorite panel was "Mad Med and the Visual Culture of the Long Sixties" (minus the first speaker, who was...unprepared, let's say). Architecture and interior spaces, social art history, post-war America...right up my alley!

Unfortunately, I did not attend CAA, but noted there's a hot conversation going on the topic of whether artists and art historians should remain tied together, on the Facebook page of "Williams College Graduate Program in the History of Art".
