Something Other: The relationship between psychoanalytic theory, art, visual culture, and pedagogyWithin the last several decades, theorists, philosophers, pedagogues, academics, artists, and practitioners from diverse fields have embraced and appropriated Lacanian theories. Indeed, an indelible mark (or stain) has been made through theorizing art, visual culture, and pedagogy from a psychoanalytic perspective. How might we continue to interrogate images, objects, events, and the unknown in the current and future cultural field? What might Lacanian theory do for the force of art, education, and the broader visual culture in our contemporary era?
SYNNYT/ORIGINS, a Finnish on-line peer-reviewed journal, seeks papers for a special issue on psychoanalytic theory, art, visual culture, and pedagogy. Authors are invited to submit a manuscript addressing the relationship between Lacanian psychoanalytic theory and one (or more) of the following areas:
* Art (including the “art world,” contemporary art practices, institutions, images, events, actions, interventions, etc.)
* Pedagogy (including art education, classroom life, curriculum theory, higher education, critical pedagogy, etc.)
* Visual culture (including images, artifacts, objects, and experiences from the contemporary world—film, digital media, games, visual communities/communication, etc.).
Submission deadline is August 15, 2014.
The main text of each manuscript, exclusive of figures, tables, references, or appendices, should be 3000 - 5000 words, in English, and should follow the Publication Manual of American Psychological Association (6th Edition). The manuscript must include the name of the author(s), institutional affiliation, and complete mailing and email address. Please send completed drafts as email attachments to Kevin Tavin, Professor of International Art Education, Department of Art, Aalto University, Helsinki Finland.
