CONFERENCE THEME:
This year's conference deals with the ideas of POWER as manifested in the images, signs and symbols of sex, politics and the pursuit of global domination. What are the issues that arise as we begin to navigate this territory? How do artists begin to understand their role within this conceptual framework?
