H-AMCA is a network devoted to the study of modern and contemporary art from the Arab world, Iran, and Turkey. We aim to create a network of interested scholars and organizations to enable historians and other scholars to easily communicate current research and teaching interests, and to promote scholarly cooperation between both persons and organizations.
An online series of talks entitled Histories and Archives of Arabic Publishing co-curated and convened by Daniel Lowe at the British Library and Hana Sleiman at Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge.
How do you employ open access technologies in building community archives? What principles do you take to consideration when building accessible resources for communities, including for those with disabilities? Hazine is seeking 4 pieces on the open access movement concerning archives and resources from or pertaining to the Maghreb, Mashriq, East Africa, West Africa, Southern Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Turkey, or Iran.
Drs. Anne Marie Butler (Kalamazoo College) and Sascha Crasnow (University of Michigan) invite contributions for consideration to be published in an edited volume on queer visual art from the South West Asia North Africa reigon and its diaspora. The book, tentatively titled Queer Contemporary Art of Southwest Asia and North Africa: Beyond Borders and Binaries, will be published open access in the Critical Studies in Architecture of the Middle East series from Intellect Books, which is edited by Drs. Christiane Gruber (University of Michigan) and Mohammad Gharipour (Morgan State University).
