Art and Politics: The Imagination of Opposition in Europe on April 29 to
30, 2004 ^Ö University College Dublin.
(The Art Projects Network, Dublin, Ireland) Dublin European Institute &
University College Dublin will host, in association with the Slovenian
Embassy, an international conference on the theme of Art and Politics:
The Imagination of Opposition in Europe - April 29 to 30, 2004.

We look forward, with an international panel of artists, art historians,
critics, academics and arts professionals, to comparing and contrasting
the European experience of art^Òs intersection of politics.  A key case
study of this conference will be the example of Slovenia^Òs, Neue
Slowenische Kunst.  This collective project, starting from 1980, is an
important starting point for analyses of how art and artists react and
interact with different political hegemonies ^Ö underlying shared and
differentiated experiences in both contemporary and historical Europe.

While the programme is being finalised, panellists thus far confirmed
include: Judith Devlin, Bojana Kunst, Marina Grzinic Mauhler, Paula
Murphy, Misko Suvakovic and Alexei Monroe.  The conference registration
fee is just ^À25 for professionals and ^À10 at a concessionary rate ^Ö
including students.
