CfA: IV. International Symposium on Clothing Culture in Social Sciences btw. 21.–23.10.2026
V. International Symposium on Clothing Culture in Social Sciences btw. 21.–23.10.2026 at the Marmara University, Istanbul (Hybrid)
Planned as a continuation of the SOB?TÜRK Symposium, the SOB?TÜRK 2026 themed around Clothing Culture aims to examine the phenomenon of clothing from a multidisciplinary social sciences perspective. Among the primary objectives of the symposium are to investigate the transformations of clothing culture throughout cultural geography from past to present and to discuss the interaction between traditional clothing patterns and modern/global fashion understandings.
Within this context, our symposium aims to reveal the aesthetic values and symbolic meanings of clothing culture while also discussing how this cultural heritage can be preserved and adapted to contemporary life. With the contributions of scholars from various disciplines within the social sciences, clothing culture will be addressed from historical, sociological, anthropological, economic, geographical, artistic, and literary perspectives, thereby providing an interdisciplinary platform for understanding broader social transformations.
Abstracts should be submitted in accordance with the abstract submission form until 30 July 2026 to: sobiturk@marmara.edu.tr.

Call for contributions: Workshop: The Theft of Art? Art Theories in Light of Global Art History
Call for contributions: Workshop: The Theft of Art? Art Theories in Light of Global Art History
(University of Strasbourg, 8 January 2027)
Building on Jack Goody’s (2007) highly influential thesis of The Theft of History, this workshop aims to address an “institution” that this critique of the Eurocentric historiographical model imposed on “the rest of the world” left largely unaddressed: the institution of art. By asking why art has escaped this ambitious and coherent theory in terms of its self-reflexivity and decentring, the workshop intends to put forward the hypothesis of a theft of art in the sense of a process of conceptual capture through which the authoritative, hegemonic, European theorising and historicising doxa has normalised its own, situated, artistic experience while obscuring its minority, or “provincial”, status, thus “stealing” the plurality of artistic concepts, terminologies, languages, and narratives produced by other cultures. Despite its heuristic value, Goody’s theft thesis, along with his work on the image—particularly his theory of the cognitive contradiction caused by representation (Goody, 1997; Chevalier & Mayor, 2009)—paradoxically appears to be a case in point of the cognitive contradictions embedded in discourses on art that purport to be self-reflexive and decentred, yet which perpetuate Eurocentric, asymmetrical and hierarchical frames of reference and teleological narratives. This workshop proposes to scrutinise this paradox.
