UNNEEDED CONVERSATIONS - Theory and Practice of Art is an  
international conference to be organized every year by the Faculty of  
Fine Arts - University of Porto (FBAUP). This first edition will take  
place in May 2010 in the city of Porto, Portugal.

After the conference, a book will be printed — UNNEEDED TEXTS | Vol.  
one — with all the papers presented and further documentation on the  
conversations, talks and exhibitions included in the program. The  
book will be divided in three different chapters, following the three  
topics of this year's UNNEEDED CONVERSATIONS.

A call for papers to be included in this book is now open. Only texts  
in English will be accepted.

The papers must be sent by e-mail texts at unneeded.virose.pt before the  
22th May, 2010.

The papers will be blind-peer reviewed by a panel of international  
referees and we hope to announce the selected texts until mid-July.

Electronic submission guidelines:
Files in Rich Text format (rtf) sent by e-mail, between 3000-5000  
words+ 300 words abstract, using Humanities Style citation style with
