The International Insular Art Conference series is the established forum for international scholars of the visual and material culture (e.g. manuscript illumination, sculpture, metalwork, textiles, etc.) of early medieval Ireland and Britain.

The Conference convenes approximately every four years. The 8th International Insular Art Conference will be held in Glasgow and Edinburgh, 10-14 July 2017, with optional day trip to see Pictish sculpture and, providing there is sufficient interest, a further optional excursion to Iona. More details and cfp will be sent out in the very near future, but please save the date!

Conference Organisers: Katherine Forsyth (Katherine.Forsyth(a)glasgow.ac.uk), Heather Pulliam (h.pulliam(a)ed.ac.uk) and Cynthia Thickpenny (c.thickpenny.1(a)research.gla.ac.uk)
