Call for Papers for the CBAA Session at College Art Association, February 2026, in ChicagoRETHINKING THE ARTIST’S BOOK IN THE DIGITAL AGE: AI, AUTHORSHIP, AND AUTHENTICITY Session will present: On location Digital technologies, AI, and materiality have transformed how we create, consume, and understand art and information. In this digital age, the artist book remains a tactile, immersive medium, emphasizing the importance of haptic engagement. Positioned between tradition and innovation, artist books invite reflection on authenticity, authorship, and material presence. This call invites submissions that engage with artist books, exploring themes like art history, literary critique, production methods, exhibition practices, and accessibility. We are particularly interested in work examining cultural, racial, and gender dynamics, as well as how AI and technology are reshaping materiality and the artist book. We encourage contributions that explore any of the following topics and more:
We invite scholars, artists, curators, and practitioners to submit papers exploring the intersections of visual, textual, and critical practices in the artist book. Submissions can cover methodologies such as art history, literary studies, critical theory, cultural studies, and digital humanities, with a focus on both historical and contemporary innovations in book art.
