🗣️ The call for papers for the 2026 edition of the Counter-Image International Conference is now open, with the theme ' How to speak with(in) the earth? Situated knowledges, unnaming methods, and visions of the threshold'.

✍️ Gaia Giuliani and Farah Polato, editors of the special issue of the journal 'From the European South' on the theme “On Catastrophe: Visual Reflections and Practices”, are inviting abstract submissions for articles, essays, visual essays and conversations until 15 April.
