6th International Forum for Doctoral Candidates in East European Art History

Chair of Art History of Eastern and East Central Europe, Humboldt 
University, Berlin

The annual Berlin „International Forum for Doctoral Candidates in East 
European Art History“ was initiated by Prof. Dr. Michaela Marek 
(1956-2018). The professorship of Central and East European Art History 
will continue the Forum also in 2019 – already for the sixth time. 
Previous editions of the forum have shown us that young scholars from 
all over the world working in this field have a strong need for a 
direct, lively exchange of specific conceptual issues and methodological 
problems of art historical “area studies” of Eastern Europe across the 
different epochs. With the Forum, we have established a platform open 
for these purposes. The annual meetings are intended to offer the 
opportunity and space for a continuous exchange of ideas and 
experiences, for making and continuing contacts and bringing together 
expertise. Current research projects – and as well their progress and 
modifications over the years – are documented on the forum’s website 
(http://www.kunstgeschichte.hu-berlin.de/institut/lehrstuehle/lehrstuhl-fuer-kunstgeschichte-osteuropas/internationales-doktorandenforum/). 
In this way and with a Facebook group 
(https://www.facebook.com/groups/773095506060350/ ), it is possible to 
build networks besides the annual forums.

Doctoral candidates engaged in a topic of art history (or a neighboring 
discipline) of Eastern Europe are cordially invited – explicitly also 
those who have come to the Forum in Berlin in the previous years. If you 
would like to participate, please send us your abstract. We ask you to 
outline concisely the subject and main question of your PhD project. 
Please discuss your methodological and analytical approach in a separate 
paragraph and name the problems and questions you would like to address. 
Dependent on the focuses resulting from the proposals submitted we will 
select up to eight contributions for presentations (20 min). All other 
participants will have the opportunity to present in brief themselves 
and their doctoral projects (5 min). It is important to us to have 
plenty of time for discussions and exchange.

Please submit your proposal - of ca. 4000 characters (including blanks)
- in a file format that can be edited (no pdf!)
- indicating your name, working title of the dissertation project, 
affiliation, e-mail

by January 31st, 2019 in German or English to:

Vertret.-Prof. Dr. Katja Bernhardt (katja.bernhardt at culture.hu-berlin.de)
Constance Krüger M.A. (constance.krueger at hu-berlin.de)

Please include in the abstract the following phrases and delete as
