Cancellation of The Spirits as Artists CESNUR Seminar

2015-02-13 21:23 | ESSWE admin (Administrator)

Dear Friends,

We regret to announce that the seminar in Biella on Spiritualist Artists and the connected exhibition on Giuseppe Maffei and Rosazza have both been cancelled.

The local organizing entity who had agreed to provide the funding for the seminar and the exhibition experienced severe financial hardships and finally was placed under a court-controlled administration, which immediately blocked all projects and expenses. Incidents of this kind are unfortunately not uncommon in Italy, where the end of the financial crisis is not on sight.

We apologize to all those concerned, although the events in Biella developed rapidly and completely outside the control of CESNUR.

We know that some of you had prepared interesting papers and projects. The CESNUR conference in Tallin, Estonia had a call for papers expiring on January 23, 2015.

We are however keeping open for you the possibility to submit the papers for Tallinn until January. 31, next. Please let me know within this time whether you are interested in resubmitting the papers for Tallinn and we will organize a special session on the same theme.

Best regards
Massimo Introvigne
