The University of Nicosia Art & Design Research Lab and the Department of Design and Multimedia are pleased to announce DADH 2023, the international conference of “Decentering art and design history: research, practice, education”, on June 15-17, 2023.

The conference considers the development of art and design history in the Mediterranean region during the twentieth century. It focuses on how colonialism, postcolonialism, conflicting nationalist ideologies and western discourses of modernity have shaped: a) the development of historiography, b) the methodological and interpretative approaches, including artistic and curatorial, through which history has been written and c) the narrative forms that have been adopted for its articulation.

Agenda and keynote speakers will be announced soon.
