Call for papers--AIC Paintings Specialty Group and Wooden Artifacts Group joint session

Call for Papers
AIC PSG and WAG joint session

At the 2014 Annual Meeting in San Francisco, the Paintings and
Wooden Artifacts specialty groups are presenting a joint session in
addition to our regular sessions. Given the many links and parallels
between the specialties in terms of substrate, design layers, and
coatings, it is sure to be a rich and interesting intersection.
While papers on the sustainability theme of the general meeting are
encouraged, the joint session also provides an opportunity to
present on several subthemes that exist between paintings and wooden
artifacts such as frames, varnishes, panel paintings, altarpieces,
and cleaning and consolidation of painted surfaces. We welcome all
paper topics for consideration that are relevant to your specialty
group or to the joint session, please submit what you're working on.

Submission Guideline

   You may submit an abstract for a combination of the three session
   types: General Sessions, Specialty Sessions, or Poster Session.
   You may submit your presentation to only one or two sessions if
   you so choose.

   If you are submitting a Discussion/Interactive Session, please
   submit only for that, since the format is not compatible with the
   other General Session choices

   Please indicate on the abstract the session/sessions for which
   you want the paper to be considered.

   Please limit your choices to three sessions and rank them in
   order of preference. For example, your preferences could be one
   of the following:

      1st Choice: General Sessions, 2nd Choice: Objects Session, and
      3rd Choice: Wooden Artifacts Session

      1st Choice: General Sessions, 2nd Choice: Poster Session, and
      3rd Choice: Book and Paper Session

      1st Choice: Photographic Materials Session, 2nd Choice:
      Electronic Media Session, and 3rd Choice: Research and
      Technical Studies Session

      1st Choice: Book and Paper Session, 2nd Choice: Book and Paper
      Session, 3rd Choice: Book and Paper Session

      1st Choice: General Sessions - Concurrent
      Interactive/Discussion Session

Just a reminder: when listing your three session choices, please
remember that if you are interested in a joint session, please list
that as a single option. For example, if you want your second choice
to be the Architecture/Objects Joint Session, don't list it as
either Architecture Session or Objects Session, list it as
Architecture/Objects Joint Session
