ArgumentThere are images today, which are not considered as art; they are artefacts, or just secondary sources for art history. There had been images too that were not considered as art even in the recent past. Video games graphic design, fashion design or fashion shows, medical X-rays or possibly CT scans, for instance, outside a museum context are primarily being investigated for their functionality. Why a common strigil is to be found in a &#8220;classical&#8221; art museum? The same could be proposed for a casual medieval shoe, a sixteenth century wooden repository box or an ordinary eighteenth century lace when it comes to their introduction into an art museum.Is the museum &#8211; gallery context still today a dominant citation for characterising something as art, in academic discourse? Could it be challenged? Is the approval of the so-called an art world very much needed for something to be coined as art or as artefact? Do we study only what an art-world each time over the ages perceives as art? Are we all victims of an art world, in the end?Manuscripts are more than welcome to explore the shift between the notion of art and artefact in images and material objects through a certain case study.Submission guidelinesNote: Contributions to previous Art History Supplement CFPs are accepted anytime, since all our call for papers are mere thought provoking; as an ongoing research on the study of public and oral art history, and in art histories that have shaped art history, as well.&#160;http://arths.hypotheses.org/category/cfp Submissions should be emailed to ArtHS Editor: editor@arths.org.uk &#160;A contribution consists of:A manuscript of minimum 3000 words (without any existing maximum); while there is no maximum to the number of words.A 100-150 word abstract, as well as a word count for both the main text and the notes separately.A biographical statement of no more than thirty words could also be included.A list of illustrations (captions), if any.
