At the 98th Annual Conference of the College Art Association of America, 10th - 13th February which will be held in Chicago, Professor Griselda Pollock will receive the second annual award for Distinction in Feminist Scholarship and Research in Art History.

Each year the CAA conference draws more than 4,000 art professionals from throughout the United States and abroad, including art historians, visual artists, students, educators, art-museum curators, collectors, and art critics. The program  will include three days of presentations and panel discussions on art history and  visual culture; career-development workshops, mentoring, and job interviews with  colleges and universities; a Book and Trade Fair of 120 academic and trade art publishers and artist-materials distributors; and a host of special events throughout  the Chicago area. 

The Distinguished Scholars awards are presented as a result of nomination and peer review within the international membership of the CAA.
