University of California, Santa Barbara’s University Center (UCEN) and Art, Design & Architecture Museum, Santa Barbara,
CA, United States
Abstracts due: 08/01/2018
The Art and Psyche Working Groupin collaboration with Pacifica Graduate Institute will offer a four-day conference along with an exhibition of C.G. Jung’s The Red Book and Black Books at the Art, Design & Architecture Museum, University of Cali. . .
fornia, Santa Barbara. Also included are images created prior to and following the creation of Liber Novus that have been gathered into a book along with relevant essays to be published as „The Art of C.G. Jung“ (Norton 2018).
During the course of the conference, participants will have the opportunity to walk a few short steps from the primary venue on the UCSB campus to the Museum and view first-hand the images now at the heart of analytical psychology. A book launch for „The Art of C.G. Jung“ will be a part of the festivities and authors who have contributed essays to this exciting new volume will be featured speakers as part of the conference program. The Red Book has moved beyond the circumscribed world of professional analysts and psychotherapists to fascinate and influence the general population worldwide since it became a best seller in 2009 and the exhibition will run from January through April2019 free of charge for anyone interested.
Just as Jung’s The Red Book was a living symbol of renewal out of the ashes of World War I, we are planning a conference for the creative expression of psyche as it persists through the troubled times surrounding us – from environmental disasters to political turmoil. We hope for illumination through the interplay of word, image, and body as it manifests in artistic productions, conference presentations, and as it emerges spontaneously through collective interactions throughout the conference itself. Inspired by The Red Book – in many ways conceived by Jung as an illuminated manuscript – we aim to create an experience of unfolding awareness of soul that reaches back to medieval times and forward into an uncertain but potentially meaningful future guided by the illuminated imagination. We hope to revalue Jung’s practice of active imagination as a powerful tool for both a clinical and cultural revitalization that serves as a connection with depth and that opens us to the possibility for surprise.
As has always been the case with Art and Psyche conferences, we invite artists of all kinds, including poets, painters, sculptors, writers, actors, architects, dancers, and musicians, along with psychologists, psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, expressive arts therapists, dance therapists, and anyone interested in depth psychology ,to submit proposals that revolve around “The Illuminated Imagination” as the center that connects us. With in Spiration from this over-arching theme, we invite you to follow creative threads as they lead into expressions and modalities of your choice.
The following may serve to spark your ideas for proposals but please do not feel constrained by our suggestions:
- Artistic practices and processes as forms of individuation
- Embodied imagination and movement
- Word and image: from ancient to modern forms
- The symbolic function of art within the life of the maker
- Eco-psychology, individuation and imaginal processes
- The animated vision of the indigenous psyche
- Deepening the use of active imagination within clinical practice and beyond
- Illumination and its symbolic meaning
- The Red Book as inspiration
- The religious function of the psyche
- The value of play with mind, body and soul
- The value of art during times of political upheaval
- Arts-based research
The conference and exhibition site is a wonderful one! Located on the sea, the plenary and break out rooms have water views and on the other side, mountains are clearly visible. Temperatures will be warm and comfortable in early April and we will host an opening reception, the book launch and a gala dinner outside on the patio adjacent to the main meeting area. A food court is housed in the same building as the conference.

Art and Artists in the Republic of Letters
An International Graduate and Young Scholars Conference
in memory of Yolanda de Man
Keynote speaker:
Prof. Pamela Smith, Columbia University
Seth Low Professor of History, dire. . .
ctor of the Center for Science and Society, founding director of the Making and Knowing Project, founding director of the Center for Science and Society, and chair of the Presidential Scholars in Society and Neuroscience.
With the rising of Renaissance Art and Culture, scholarly communities all around Europe assumed the name respublica litteraria—the Republic of Letters. Its citizens produced new literary genres, such as Utopia and Emblem books, as well as numerous Medical, Nature and Science books, where art and artists collaborated to offer a new visual form. This connection, between erudite and artists, was articulated by Noël d’Argonne, one of its citizens, who wrote in 1699: “The arts are joined to letters, and artisans also have their place in it [the Republic of Letters].”
This conference seeks to explore the citizenship of artists in this ‘strange imaginary land’ (Grafton, 2009): What was the artists’ and art’s position in the Republic of Letters? Were they ‘naturalized citizens’ as Alberti had hoped? Was art, whose craft-tools are the brush, the chisel and the construction bar, an active participant in its enterprises? Or were the artists and their work only secondary and used merely to illustrate the texts, which the ‘autochthonous’ citizens produced?
We invite papers from graduate students and young scholars from all art and humanities disciplines that consider diverse conceptualization of the relations between Art and Letters and the position of Art within the Republic of Letters, as well as the varied ways and case studies in which art and artists collaborated, influenced and were influenced by scholars, scientists and collectors. Although the conference focuses on the Early Modern period, we also welcome papers that examine preceding or posterior manifestations of these relations.
Topics for papers could include, but are not limited to:
- Emblems
- Ekphrasis
- Kunstkammer and Wunderkammer
- Utopia
- Art and Science
- Art Academies
- The Republic of Letters and the Promotion of Art and Artists
- Network Topology
- Women Artists and Scholars
- Perspective/Camera Obscura
All submissions are invited by June 30, 2018 and should be sent to: respublica.litterariail@gmail.com
All submissions should include:
Abstract – must be in English and should be limited to 300 words.
Please head your abstract with your name, university affiliation and position, and the paper’s title.
A one‐page curriculum vitae
E‐mail address for correspondence.
All presentations are to be in English and limited to 20 minutes, followed by discussion.
All applicants will be notified whether accepted or declined by July 30, 2018.
Travel and Accommodation: Applicants should take under consideration that we are not able to cover travel expenses (we may be able to offer a limited amount of travel stipendium). However, participants coming from abroad, should they desire to do so, will be hosted by their Israeli student peers.
