The Fantastic in Popular Culture and Visual Arts
Division of the International Association for the
Fantastic in the Arts is seeking submissions for the
24th Annual International Conference on the Fantastic

The focus of ICFA 24 is on the darker side of the
fantastic, on the strange and horrific elements of
myths, legends, and fairy tales that creep into
science fiction and fantasy. However, proposals on
any aspect of the fantastic in popular
culture--comics/graphic novels, visual arts,
architecture (especially as it relates to the gothic),
photography, gaming, fan fiction and culture, music,
performance art, and computer-based art (e.g., digital
imagery, hypertext, and hypermedia)--are welcome.
The deadline for submission of individual proposals,
paper sessions, or panel discussions is 15 October
2002. Proposals should include a 500-word abstract
and appropriate bibliography indicating the project's
scholarly or theoretical context. Be sure to include
current/working contact information (snailmail AND
email address at least).
