Lisbon conference 2025
NEW Deadline for conference abstracts: April 15
We encountered several technical issues with the registration of new users. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. To ensure that everyone who intends to submit has the proper conditions to do so, we are extending the deadline.
Save the dates! It will be a hybrid event, we warmly welcome everyone who can join us in Lisbon. More information will be shared through our newsletter. The generic theme for the 2025 Urban Creativity initiative is "Territory".
Ideological, physical, disciplinary territories. Private and public territory. Territory of the arts, territory of the sciences. Borders as conventions, abstractions, personal or collective. Defining boundaries, overcoming boundaries, dilution of boundaries. Political territory, communal, liberal, democratic. Territorial absence, materialism, material nihilism. Graffiti territory: when ends historical graffiti and it starts "modern" graffiti? Were are the limits of the "urban" territory? What can be defined as "the territory of the user"? Art and Place isn't it in the same territory of Public Art?
As you know, Urban Creativity is represented by several publications.
Submissions are welcome trough the following links:
GSA - Graffiti and Street Art Journal
UXUC - User Experience and Urban Creativity Journal (co editorial issue)
VAS - Visionary Architecture Studies (new journal)
EGI – Epigraphy, Graffiti, Iconography (new journal - specific call)
Accepted abstracts will be invited both for presentation at the conference and for publication. Articles will be published on a rolling basis as they are received and approved by the scientific committee. Therefore, we encourage authors to submit their full papers as soon as possible.
However, there are two key deadlines for publication:
- For inclusion in the August edition, articles must be submitted by July 5.
- For inclusion in the November edition (the final edition of 2025), articles must be submitted by October 5.
