Appel à contribution : “Tractive Forces : Potentials of Art in the Trecento”, Hambourg, Université d’Hambourg, du 6 au 8 mai 2026, date limite le 15 décembre 2025.

Organised by Wolf-Dietrich Löhr and Gerd Micheluzzi Pull, draw, attract, and captivate. The question of ‘tractive forces’ in fourteenth-century Italian art has so far received only limited scholarly attention. Yet these forces illuminate qualities that allow us to examine production processes, materiality, and mediality, as well as motifs and their beholders, in their physical, metaphysical, technical, and aesthetic dimensions. It is not by chance, we hypothesise, that Francesco Petrarca speaks of a “force” (vis) in...

Conférence : Cecilie Hollberg, “Seta operata nella pittura trecentesca della Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze”, Florence, Villa I Tatti, le 5 juin, 18h

La seta operata era seducente e di valore inestimabile, un investimento accattivante e vistoso.

While serving as the director of the Galleria dell’Accademia in Florence from 2015 to 2024, Cecilie Hollberg renewed the...

Workshop de l’association Trecento, “L’art du Trecento en France”, le 14 mai 2024, Paris, INHA, Salle Jullian, de 9h à 18h

L’association Trecento est née en septembre 2023 du désir de plusieurs chercheurs travaillant dans des institutions françaises sur l’art du XIVe siècle italien de se constituer un réseau scientifique. Le Trecento étant considéré tantôt comme «médiéval» tantôt comme «renaissant», ses spécialistes peuvent en effet ressentir un certain «isolement» au sein des institutions qui établissent une frontière rigide entre ces deux périodes qu’il transgresse. Il en va de même de la frontière entre monde universitaire et...

Parution : Karl Whittington, “Trecento Pictoriality: Diagrammatic Painting in Late Medieval Italy”, Turnhout, Brepols, 2023

In dozens of monumental examples across central and northern Italy, late-medieval artists created complex diagrammatic paintings whose content was conveyed not through proto-perspectival spaces but rather through complex circles, trees, hierarchical stemmata, and winding pathways. Trecento Pictoriality is the first comprehensive study of the practice of monumental diagrammatic painting in late-medieval Italy, moving the study of diagrams from the manuscript page to the frescoed wall and tempera panel. Often placed alongside narrative, devotional, and allegorical...

Parution : Sarah K. Kozlowski’s, « Portable Panel Paintings at the Angevin Court of Naples. Mobility and Materiality in the Trecento Mediterranean », Turnhout, Brepols, 2022

Sarah K. Kozlowski’s new study of panel painting in fourteenth-century Naples explores the materialities and mobilities of the medium at and beyond the Angevin court, and reframes trecento art in the broader context of artistic circulation, exchange, and transformation across the late medieval and early Renaissance world. This book explores the mobilities and materialities of panel painting at and beyond the Angevin court of Naples in the context of objects, materials, patrons, and painters on...
