How can creative practices disrupt power structures within the archive? In March 2025, Autograph and Parse Journal will host a new symposium Encounters: Art, Power and Archives in London to discuss strategies and methodologies to rethink, reimagine and reshape the histories embedded in archival collections.
We are calling for presentations that examine how reactivating archival materials through diverse perspectives and disciplines can challenge dominant narratives. With a focus on decolonial and queer methodologies, the symposium will emphasise approaches that encourage a continual reengagement with archives.
We are looking for a broad range of interdisciplinary voices to present their work. This could include – but is not limited to – proposals that share artistic or scholarly research, creative or social projects, and provocations. You might be a historian, archivist, researcher, educator or artist: or any mix of disciplines. Submissions are encouraged by contributors from all backgrounds.
Encounters: Art, Power and Archives will take place on 18 March 2025 in London.
