Andrew Ladis Memorial Trecento Conference
Frist Art Museum and Vanderbilt University, Nashville, January 7–9, 2021
The Andrew Ladis Memorial Trecento Conference is held biennially in honor of the art historian Andrew Ladis (1949–2007), an authority on Taddeo Gaddi and Giotto and an inspiring teacher. The conference—the only gathering of its kind—emphasizes trecento Italian art as a fruitful area of research and offers participants the opportunity to exchange ideas formally and informally in a collegial environment. The next conference will be held January 7–9, 2021, at the Frist Art Museum and Vanderbilt University in Nashville. Dr. Susan L’Engle, professor emerita and former assistant director of the Vatican Film Library at Saint Louis University, will be the keynote speaker. Approximately twenty-four other scholars will be selected to present papers, which will be published by Brepols. There will be an opening reception on January 7, 2021, and meals for all attendees on January 8 and 9. Guided visits will be offered of the exhibition Medieval Bologna: Art for a University City at the Frist and of the Samuel H. Kress Study Collection at the Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery.

Please submit an abstract (maximum 500 words) and curriculum vitae by April 6, 2020. Combine the documents in that order into a single Word file or PDF with Lastname_Firstname as the filename and send it to LadisTrecentoConference@gmail.com.
