I think I read a note from you that stated you were out of town for a few
days, so I realize you may not be able to respond to this note right away.
But - I'm curious about the PhotoHistory XIII. How many people usually
attend? Are all the presenters in the upper echelon of photography and
science?

Mark your calendars for the Symposium, PhotoHistory XIII, to be held
October
20-22, 2006 at George Eastman House, Rochester, NY, conducted by The
Photographic Historical Society in cooperation with George Eastman House.
Since its inception in 1970, this triennial event is the world's only
ongoing
PhotoHistorical symposium, recognized as the principal forum for original,
scholarly presentations on the broad history of photography. Several
hundred
historians, collectors and enthusiasts from around the world are expected
to
gather for a weekend of lectures, exhibits and a major sale of antique
photographica. (Special interest groups often meet while at the
symposium.)
The feature of PhotoHistory is its full day lecture program. More leading
authors have presented here than at any other venue. We strive for a
program
offering a wide range of photo-historical topics, including the
social/commercial impact, esthetics and technology of photography and
photographers.
We are entertaining contributions for PhotoHistory XIII. If you have a
presentation you would like to have considered for the Symposium program,
please send a description (including the time required) and a one-page
abstract. We need the description and abstract no later later than
December 31,
2005, to enable proper committee review and subsequent correspondence.
Electronic submission of proposals should be sent to: Prof. Andrew
Davidhazy,
at andpph@xxxxxxx stating clearly in the Subject line that the message is
a
submission of an abstract for the XIII Symposium. Communications in
writing
using the postal service should be sent to: Sharon Bloemendaal, 82 Quentin
Rd.,
Rochester, NY 14609.
Our program features 45-50 minute presentations, but also welcomes
proposals
for brief resentations (e.g., 15-30 minutes). We prefer that the lectures
not
have been presented or published previously. We waive registration, hotel
and
meal fees for speakers.
We anticipate another successful and stimulating PhotoHistory Symposium,
and
hope you will participate. Please pass the word to colleagues who share an
interest in the history of photography. Write or call (585) 288-6359, if
additional information is needed, or if you wish to suggest others whom we
can
contact as possible speakers.
