CALL PROPOSALS
KU Leuven (Belgium) May 21-22, 2026
Deadline: March 30, 2026
Uncommoning Matter invites contributions that examine the ongoing potential, limits, and necessary reconfigurations of New Materialism in relation to contemporary political, ecological, and epistemological challenges. Particular attention will be given to the role of aesthetic practices—such as literature, performance, visual art, and other cultural forms— in rethinking materiality and in testing, extending, or troubling new materialist concepts.
