Second EAM<\/span> Conference, 9. \u2013 11. September 2010 \u2013 Adam Mickiewicz University, Pozna\u0144 \/ Polen<\/a><\/h3>\n

The second EAM<\/span> conference aims to revise the relation between
\nhigh and low culture in the European avant-garde and modernism.
\nAlthough we welcome all scrutinising this relationship, we are
\nparticularly interested in innovative research on the following
\naspects:<\/p>\n

1. Popular culture\u2019s influence of the textual and artistic production
\nof avant-garde and modernism has been up for debate for quite
\na while. What forms and themes in popular culture inspired the
\npoetic and aesthetic agenda of modernism and the avant-garde?
\nWhich representational tactics from popular culture informing the
\navant-garde and modernism still require attention today? What
\nintermedial aspects still warrant scrutiny in this context? How
\nwere the avant-garde and modernism received in the popular press
\nand other popular media? And what is the role of kitsch in this
\nconstellation?<\/p>\n

2. To what extent were modernist and avant-garde poetics and
\naesthetics determined by consumer culture? Which aspects of
\navant-garde and modernist practice affirmed expectations and
\nlaws governing the market? How did individual writers and
\ngroups, theoreticians and art practitioners resist commodity
\nculture? Are there notable shifts in avant-garde writers\u2019 and
\nartists\u2019 attitude toward capitalism from the post-war era onward,
\nand how do these relate to shifts within capitalism itself? What
\ndo avant-gardes and modernisms from European regions in which
\ncapitalism developed somewhat slower teach us in this context?
\nThe tension between the avant-garde\/modernism and capitalism
\nwas extremely varied across Europe given economic, social and
\npolitical differences. Do these differences allow for alternate
\nhistories of the European avant-garde and modernism, marking
\nnot just and East\/West divide bus bringing into scope the specifity
\nof the so-called Eastern bloc as well?<\/p>\n

3. To what extent have the avant-garde and modernism
\nthemselves become part and parcel of popular and consumer
\nculture? In what ways do avant-garde and modernist practice
\nand aestetics define the outlook of popular culture today? What
\nprocesses and institutions led (and lead) to the incorporation of
\nthe avant-garde and modernism in the canon, mainstream culture
\nand the international art market? How do more recent avantgardes
\nattempt to resist such incorporation and maintain part of
\nmodernism\u2019s and the avant-garde\u2019s legacy?<\/p>\n
