From Allan Edmunds: Art Opportunity for historians, Curators, Young artists

Dear Friends and Associates:

I am writing a grant application to convene meetings in Philly and at least two other cities during 2009 to discuss trends in narrative art and the use of new media and multidisciplinary media in the creation of new work by young artists. Please let me know of any historians or curators dedicated to African American contemporary art, you feel should be invited to participate. I am particularly interested in young professionals who are close to young artists. A modest honorarium and travel expenses will be provided. The deadline for confirming interest in the project and submitting resumes is January 30, 2009.
 
I am also, looking to invite dynamic and talented young artists in the  mid-Atlantic region (under 35) to Philly this year for a conference on trends in narrative art.  If you are aware of artists working with historic images, photojournalism, family albums, etc., please ask them to contact me. Feel free to forward this email!
