University of Antwerp, Belgium
28-30 October 2026
Deadline: 1 December, 2025
We invite proposals in all forms, including but not limited to: artistic research presentations, performance lectures, roundtables, workshops, scholarly presentations, and provocations that address the key themes and ideas of the symposium. We encourage proposals from artists, unaffiliated researchers, graduate students, and faculty of all ranks. Proposals should include a title, a short abstract or description of the work (~300 words), and a short bio.
As an experiment in collective thinking, writing, and performance-making, all symposium participants will be invited to contribute to a shared online space and to participate in a collaborative process in advance of the event in Antwerp. More information will be shared once your proposal is accepted.
If you have any questions about the symposium or proposals, please email us at: PerformingEnds.2026@gmail.com
