Since the 90s an increasing wave of challenging art events occurred that shows significant similarities with anthropology and ethnography in its theorisations of cultural difference and representational practices. In this theme issue, we aim to revisit the ethnographic turn in contemporary art by focusing on practice-led research. We invite papers from theorists, artists and critics to engage critically with the ethnographic perspective in their work. Next to full research papers we also invite short statements and reflections by artists about their practice.</font></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><span lang="EN-US"><o:p><font face="Cambria" size="4"> </font></o:p></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"><span lang="EN-US">In the issue, we approach ethnography from a thematic and/or methodological perspective rather than looking for fixed categories for defining ‘ethnographic art’. Our aim is to further the critical work on ethnography in relation to contemporary art by specifically looking at authorship in art <i>practices </i>and <i>processes</i>, thereby offering a bottom-up perspective from </span><span>artists, critics and theorists addressing the question </span><i><span lang="EN-US">if, why</span></i><span lang="EN-US"> and <i>how</i> an ethnographic perspective is indeed at work. In these practices we are equally interested in to what extent contextualisation is relevant when dealing with the display of alterity and outsiderness. We are specifically interested in papers dealing with southern-based art practices and/or representations of self and other in relation to the north-south nexus.</span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><u><span lang="EN-US"><o:p><span style="text-decoration: none; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"> </font></span></o:p></span></u></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><u><span lang="EN-US"><font face="Cambria" size="4">Submission guidelines<o:p></o:p></font></span></u></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"><b><span lang="EN-US">Deadline for abstracts: </span></b><span lang="EN-US">Please send your abstracts to <a href="mailto:Kris.Rutten@UGent.be"><font color="#0000ff">Kris.Rutten@UGent.be</font></a> by August 31<sup>st</sup> 2012.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"><b><span lang="EN-US">Deadline for article submission:</span></b><span lang="EN-US"> Please send your papers to <a href="mailto:Kris.Rutten@UGent.be"><font color="#0000ff">Kris.Rutten@UGent.be</font></a> by December 31<sup>st</sup> 2012.</span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"><b><span lang="EN-US">Information and instructions for authors: </span></b><span lang="EN-US"><a href="http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/RCRC"><font color="#0000ff">http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/RCRC</font></a></span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="4"><font face="Cambria"><b></b></font> </font></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"><b>So Why Publish in Critical Arts?</b><o:p></o:p></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><o:p><font face="Cambria" size="4"> </font></o:p></div><div style="text-align: center; line-height: 12pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4"><i><span>Critical Arts</span></i><span> has niched itself in terms of conceptual freshness, textured writing, and experiential analysis<o:p></o:p></span></font></div><div style="text-align: center; line-height: 12pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4">which draws readers into its articles, its narrative<o:p></o:p></font></div><div style="text-align: center; line-height: 12pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-family: 'Segoe UI'; "><font face="Cambria" size="4">themes and its theoretical explorations.
