Abstract
This essay considers efforts to forefront knowledge dissemination at National Art Education Association (NAEA) National Conventions as a form of governmentality on art education scholarship. Starting with an analysis of the presenter policy as well as the review criteria, we consider how this rhetoric reflects neoliberal ideology and actually limits the potentials of the field for change, critique, and diversity of insights. From within this paradoxical space, we offer provocations, strategies, and quandaries. Through usurping the governmentality bearing down on thought and research dissemination, we join counter factions that have worked and continue to occupy the margins and centers of the NAEA National Convention.
