Conférences : Alexander Nagel, « The Scales of European Painting », Madrid/en ligne, 2-30 novembre 2023

Scale—not measurable size, but the sense of relation to size—fundamentally shapes relations between people and material works of art. In the case of painting, scale is a primary means by which depicted worlds meet the viewer’s experience, suggesting possible new configurations of social, political, and environmental relations. During the period 1300-1600, European painting underwent a series of radical reinventions—the emergence of new picture categories, new roles for drawing and new modes of scalable image-replication, new...

Parution : Elizabeth Merrill, « Creating Place in Early Modern European Architecture », Amsterdam, Amsterdam University Press, 2021

The importance of place—as a unique spatial identity—has been recognized since antiquity. Ancient references to the ‘genius loci’, or spirit of place, evoked not only the location of a distinct atmosphere or environment, but also the protection of this location, and implicitly, its making and construction. This volume examines the concept of place as it relates to architectural production and building knowledge in early modern Europe (1400-1800). The places explored in the book’s ten essays...

Appel à contribution : « The Virgin and the City. Urban Marian Spaces in Late Medieval Europe », en ligne, 9-14 mai 2022, date limite le 1er septembre 2021

The session wishes to analyze the Marian presence in Late Medieval European cities. The scholarly importance of the session lies in understanding how the Virgin became a part of urban landscapes and how the political and civic powers enhanced religious place‐making practices. How was the Mother of God accommodated and exhibited in civic space? What does Marian images’ location reveal about the relationship between devotion and public places? Why did the Virgin become the guarantor...

Parution : Livia Stoenescu (dir.), The Interaction of Art and Relics in Late Medieval and Early Modern Art, Turnhout, Brepols, 2020

The collection of essays gathered in this volume investigates the interaction between art and relics as a distinct historical relevance for devotional art of Early Modernity and the Renaissance. Recent studies in the material culture of artifacts from these periods have drawn increasing attention to a sense of material tangibility derived from relics. Putting that conclusion into perspective, this edited collection focuses on the aesthetic meaning generated by a specific material culture of sanctity –...

Parution : Christopher P. Heuer, « Into the White: The Renaissance Arctic and the End of the Image », Londres, Zone Books, 2019

European narratives of the Atlantic New World tell stories of people and things: strange flora, wondrous animals, and sun-drenched populations for Europeans to mythologize or exploit. Yet between 1500 and 1700 one region upended all of these conventions in travel writing, science, and, most unexpectedly, art: the Arctic. Icy, unpopulated, visually and temporally “abstract”, the far North – a different kind of terra incognita for the Renaissance imagination – offered more than new stuff to...

Journée d’étude : Pictorial Space in the Late Middle Ages and Renaissance, Amsterdam, Amsterdam School of Historical Studies, le 26 avril 19

Amsterdam School of Historical Studies, University of Amsterdam, April 26, 2019 The purpose of this workshop is to reconsider the traditional conception of pictorial space in Western art from the Late Middle Ages to the Early Renaissance, in the fourteenth, fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. How might we bring a more material and social significance to such an abstract consideration as perspective? Pictorial space was a pivotal area of art historical research from the early...
