“Signs in the City”
We are seeking papers for a panel to be submitted for the 2011 meetings of the American Anthropological Association in Montreal, from Nov. 16-20. This panel seeks papers that examine the visuality/aesthetics of urban settings and market places. We would welcome contributions on material / visual culture such as commercial/store-front art, signage, posters, bill-boards, publicity and advertizing materials, stickers, graffiti. Geographical region is open. If interested in contributing a paper to this panel, please contact Liam Buckley (bucklelm@jmu.edu) and Joseph Hellweg (jhellweg@fsu.edu) at your earliest convenience. We must submit the panel proposal by April 15. see here
