**DEADLINE FOR SPRING 1998 SPECTATOR HAS BEEN EXTENDED**
 
Please submit a 250-500 word proposal no later than **February 1** to
Alison Trope ([log in to unmask]).
 
SPECTATOR is a bi-annual journal of film and television criticism published
by the University of Southern California. We are currently seeking
manuscripts for a special topic issue:
 
SIZE MATTERS: The Film Screen in Public and Private Exhibition
 
While revisionist writing on film exhibition has significantly
incorporated an industrial economic paradigm, these studies do not always
account for the wider context of film exhibition that exists outside the
average commercial theater. With new developments in cultural studies and
reception theory as well as current theories on popular geographies,
virtual spaces and new technologies, the scope of exhibition studies can be
reconfigured along original and more comprehensive lines. This issue will
re-examine the history as well as the future of exhibition within two
distinct, yet interrelated spaces: the public and the private (or
domestic) exhibition sphere.
 
Possible essay topics include:
 
Public Exhibition Spaces: * the drive-in * big screen and
technological experimentation * the revival, repertory house * the film
society * the film festival * museum or archive exhibition *
avant-garde, political activist exhibition and independent outlets * the
sports venue, the concert venue * the theme park, public fair, expo *
pedagogical and propaganda films
 
Private Exhibition Spaces: * home theater systems * home movies,
home video * film on cable TV * film on publicTV * film on network TV
* film on CD ROM, DVD, etc. * film on the Internet
