ANNUAL CONFERENCES
TFAP@CAA Day of Panels brings together an exceptional
group of artists, art historians, curators and critics for
a day of dialogue and performance creating an
energizing and extraordinary feminist art event.
___________________________
Beginning in 2007, Anne Swartz, Professor of Art History,
Savannah College of Art and Design, organized the first
TFAP Day of Panels and performances for the CAA
conference in NYC. Since then, the TFAP@CAA program
has become a staple in the CAA conference itinerary
and is scheduled through 2014.
| The Feminist Art Project wishes to thank Anne Swartz for creating the annual TFAP@CAA Day of Panels and serving as Project Coordinator 2007-2011. Through Anne's efforts, the art world, the CAA and WCA communities, and emerging professionals gained access to cutting edge work and ideas of artists, curators, performers and scholars, up close and through a feminist lens. Anne contributed many planning hours, acting as the liaison between TFAP and panel chairs and ensuring that the annual day of panels ran smoothly. Anne's gift to all of us has been an ongoing forum for feminist issues and discussions of global art and art history. Brava Anne! to read more about Anne Swartz..... |

TFAP@CAA
College Art Association (CAA) has been
a Founding Program partner of The Feminist
Art Project since its inception in 2005.
CAA hosts conference sessions and special events originating from The Feminist Art Project,
as well as from CAA’s membership,
that center on women’s aesthetic and
intellectual impact on the cultural record.
In 2008, the CAA Committee on Women
in the Arts established a Distinguished
Feminist Award, which honors a person
who, through his or her art, scholarship,
or advocacy, has advanced the cause of
equality for women in the arts. The
award was given for the first time
in 2009 to the Guerrilla Girls.
We are grateful for CAA's generosity
in providing meeting rooms, publicity,
technical support, and assistance
that gives greater visibility throughout
the conference week to women
artists, feminist concerns and supports the
mission of The Feminist Art Project.
