The
Dutch Aesthetics Federation (DAF) is a co-operative
forum for institutes and organisations of scholars,
students and art critics that work in the field of
aesthetics and art theory. By 2005 it consists of three
institutes: Center for Philosophy & Arts (CFK),
Dutch Association of Aesthetics (NGE) and Dutch Society
of Aesthetics (DSA). It aims at enhancing the
specificity of Dutch debates on aesthetics by organizing
symposia and seminars and internationally publishing the
results. Membership is open to institutions and
organisations.
The Federation was founded in March 2003 in Rotterdam,
The Netherlands.
Beside small scale debates and seminars the Federation
aims at organizing an annual conference in cooperation
with recognized art institutions, such as musea and
academies. The founding conference, entitled Intermedial
Reflections in which 50 experts will participate, will
be held in September 2005 in Rotterdam at the Museum
Boijmans-Van Beuningen.
The founding members - delegates of
the above mentioned organisations - are
Henk Oosterling (chairman: hafo@xs4all.nl),
Renée van de Vall (secretary: R.vandeVall@LK.unimaas.nl)
and Henk Slager (treasurer: lierboog@dds.nl).
