Conférence : Peter Mason, « Ulisse Aldrovandi Naturalist and Collector », Londres/en ligne, Warburg Institute, 19 avril 2024

Renaissance Lives – Ulisse Aldrovandi Naturalist and Collector Peter Mason in conversation with David Lines (Warwick) The Bolognese naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi was a prolific writer, polymath and prodigious collector who amassed the largest collection of naturalia in sixteenth-century Europe, as well as hundreds of coloured drawings detailing them. Many of these drawings found their way into his illustrated publications, most of which were published posthumously.
This book provides a concise yet comprehensive portrait of Aldrovandi, paying...

Journée d’étude : « Del regalo a la almoneda », Madrid, Facultad de Geografía e Historia, 11-12 avril 2024

En octubre de 1524, Giulio Romano fue llamado desde Roma a Mantua para convertirse en el artista de corte predilecto de la familia Gonzaga. Allí diseñó arquitecturas efímeras y permanentes, como el famoso Palazzo Te, un hito en la nueva cultura cortesana del deleite, heredera de los modelos romanos. Además, formuló nuevas propuestas para entender la pintura mural y diseñó ricas piezas de orfebrería que acompañaban banquetes y espectáculos tanto en el Palacio Ducal como...

Appel à contribution : « Playing Fools? The Art of the Jester in Modern Europe », Charenton/Paris, Médiathèque du Patrimoine et de la Photographie/Institut National d’Histoire de l’Art/Musée du Louvre, 18-20 novembre 2024, date limite le 1er avril 2024

The jester is a paradoxical figure: a subordinate included in elite social circles. Thus, he is an outsider, albeit a remarkably proficient one. Jesters, comprising fools, dwarfs, and other “monsters” – both men and women, often with disabilities – are itinerant, travelling from one court to another or from the precursors of psychiatric hospitals to the realms of royalty. Examining the jesters’ craft – as virtuosos and outsiders – provides an innovative perspective on European...

Exposition : « Moroni (1521-1580). Il ritratto del suo tempo », Milan, Gallerie d’Italia, 6 décembre 2023-1er avril 2024

La mostra “Moroni (1521-1580). Il ritratto del suo tempo” intende celebrare l’artista bergamasco, tra i maggiori interpreti della pittura rinascimentale lombarda. Autore anche di significative opere devozionali, presenti in mostra, Moroni è però noto soprattutto per la sua innovativa attività di ritrattista.  Molti i ritratti realizzati dall’artista qui esposti definiti ritratti “in azione”, moderne raffigurazioni di personaggi che, attraverso un gesto, uno sguardo, entrano in contatto con lo spettatore superando la lontananza emotiva e la...

Exposition : « Strasbourg 1560-1600. Le renouveau des arts », Strasbourg, Musée de l’Œuvre Notre-Dame, 2 février-19 mai 2024

À la fin du XVIe siècle, Strasbourg est un foyer artistique éminent, dont l’activité doit beaucoup à sa position géographique privilégiée au coeur de l’Europe. Cette période de réveil des arts après la baisse d’activité qui fait suite à la Réforme est mal connue, car une grande partie de la production a disparu ou s’est trouvée dispersée. L’exposition souhaite explorer cette ultime saison de la Renaissance, marquée par la diffusion à travers tous les arts de...

Conférence : Maria Aresin, Paul Holberton, « Venetian Disegno: New Frontiers », Londres, The Courtauld, 8 février 2024

The relationship between disegno (drawing or design) and Venetian art has historically been a problematic one. Giorgio Vasari’s notion that painters from Venice and the Veneto were mainly focused on colore and not trained in or accustomed to drawing became a commonplace in the literature on Venetian art. The title of this book, Venetian Disegno, would for him imply an unacceptable paradox. This view can no longer be sustained in light of modern scholarship, and it is clear that drawing...

Exposition : « Conserving Eden: Cranach’s Adam and Eve from the Norton Simon », Los Angeles, The Getty Center, 23 janvier-21 avril 2024

Painting in a distinctive sensuous style, Lucas Cranach the Elder (German, 1472–1553) interpreted biblical subjects with humorous insight and flair.
