the International Association for Visual Culture

The International Association for Visual Culture (IAVC) is a scholarly organization that brings together researchers, educators, and professionals interested in the study of visual images—such as art, photography, film, and digital media—and their role in society. It provides a platform for sharing research, hosting conferences, and fostering dialogue about how visual materials shape cultural understanding and communication. By promoting interdisciplinary approaches, the IAVC supports the development of critical thinking around visual culture’s influence on social, political, and technological trends worldwide.
