CFP: International Journal of Surrealism – Open Edition

To mark the fourth year of our journal, the editors of IJS announce an open edition for Spring 2026. Editions of the IJS to date have covered many critical approaches to Surrealist Studies with thematic editions 2023-2025 focusing on the dynamic between Surrealism and gender, space, manifestations, race and collage in turn. For this open edition, scholars across career stages, as well as artists and writers, are invited to submit new research essays which engage with other aspects of Surrealist Studies – including but not limited to its historiography, its impact on popular culture, more recent legacies in design and visual culture. Practitioners are invited to submit creative work in text and image for the ‚portfolio’ section of the journal; and we welcome interviews/conversations for the ‘Récit’ section. As always, we especially welcome contributions that expand the critical study of Surrealism, broadly considered, across media, scholarly disciplines, nations, and languages.
