CFP: Moving Violence: Transgressing the Boundaries of Experience in Medieval Imagery, Tel Aviv University, (11-13 December 2018), deadline 18 June 2018
Violence imagery in medieval art reveals a parade of brutal acts: various stages of decapitation, splitting skulls, amputating limbs, enucleating eyes, yanking teeth, cutting off breasts, and other repugnant horrors. Often stripped of direct devotional context and thus presented as violence inflicted upon the imagined bodies of the depicted saints, these portrayals also attacked theContinue reading “CFP: Moving Violence: Transgressing the Boundaries of Experience in Medieval Imagery, Tel Aviv University, (11-13 December 2018), deadline 18 June 2018”

Call for Papers: Mary of Guelders – Her Life and Prayer Book (ca. 1400) – Nijmegen, 23-24/11/2018 (Deadline 30/03/2018)
Mary of Guelders’ richly illuminated prayer book, written by Helmich die Lewe and completed in 1415, is extraordinary for several reasons: it originally consisted of more than 600 folia, it is richly illuminated, it was written in the Lower Rhine vernacular, and it contains an unusual compilation of prayers, hours and components of a breviary.Continue reading “Call for Papers: Mary of Guelders – Her Life and Prayer Book (ca. 1400) – Nijmegen, 23-24/11/2018 (Deadline 30/03/2018)”
Call for Papers: ‘On Monumentality’, Acropolis Museum, Athens, 4-6 of April, 2019 (Deadline 15/06/2018)
A century separates us from the “rupture of history” and the historical ambiguities that the early heroic modernism introduced in the urban space, and eighty years from the destruction of the European monumental deposit from the bombings of WWII, a defining moment for the introduction of new kinds of monumentality alongside the old ones. Yet,Continue reading “Call for Papers: ‘On Monumentality’, Acropolis Museum, Athens, 4-6 of April, 2019 (Deadline 15/06/2018)”
Call for Papers “To be [titled], or not to be [titled]? Art History and its “well-(un)known” masters…” at Nordik 25-27/10/2018, Copenhagen, Deadline 23/03/2018
It seems to be impossible to imagine an art history without names. In scientific practice the attribution to a “name” can significantly influence the perception and assessment of traditional works of art. Since the beginning of the 20th century art historians – starting with Adolf Goldschmidt (1863-1944) or Wilhelm Vöge (1868-1952) – often have used toContinue reading “Call for Papers “To be [titled], or not to be [titled]?
