Appel à contribution : « Mettere mano. Reworking Early Modern Drawings », Rome, Bibliotheca Hertziana, 4-7 mars 2025, date limite le 10 novembre 2024

“… con questo, che Taddeo potesse correggere e mettere mano nei disegni e cartoni di Federigo a suo piacimento …” In the Vita of Taddeo Zuccari, Giorgio Vasari describes the reworking of drawings — in contrast to that of paintings — as a common and spontaneous practice in the sixteenth century. In his Libro de’ disegni, Vasari himself reworked his own drawing collection into elaborate framing collages organized by artist and subject. Some of these...

Colloque : « Pose, Power, Practice: New Perspectives on Life Drawing », Londres, The Courtauld Institute, 20 juin 2024

From the sixteenth century to the present, drawing the human body from life has remained a mainstay of Western institutional art practice.

Pose, Power, Practice is a one-day symposium that seeks to reassess the state of the field on life drawing and apply new critical frameworks to this...

Colloque international : « Nuovi studi sul disegno di paesaggio: materialità, esperienza, pratica, 1500-1800 », Venise, Fondation Cini, 14-15 mars 2024

Il disegno di paesaggio è stato per lungo tempo considerato come passatempo amatoriale o esercizio delle abilità compositive in relazione alla produzione pittorica. L’orientamento degli studi più recenti verso questioni di pratica artistica e materialità delle opere ha permesso di esplorare il disegno di paesaggio in quanto opera d’arte autonoma o come restituzione dell’esperienza della natura. Del resto, disegni e stampe di paesaggi prodotti da artisti come Leonardo e Dürer, Rembrandt, Cozens e Fragonard, continuano ad affascinare...

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...
