SUMMARY:The Future of the Antique: Interpreting the Sculptural Canon
DESCRIPTION:The University of ³Ô¹ÏÍø\, the Census of Antique Works of Art and Architecture Known in the Renaissance (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin)\, the The Warburg Institute\, University of London\, and the Institute of Classical Studies (University of London)\, are organising a two-day interdisciplinary conference to celebrate the publication of the new edition of Francis Haskell and Nicholas Penny’s seminal work Taste and the Antique. \nThis landmark publication provides an opportunity to review and coordinate recent achievements and new initiatives in the study and interpretation of the Greek and Roman sculptural legacy. \nThe original 1981 Yale University Press edition of Taste and the Antique significantly shaped the field’s direction over four decades\, influencing both academic research and curatorial practices. The revised and expanded three-volume edition (edited by Adriano Aymonino and Eloisa Dodero)\, substantially updates the scholarship with research from recent decades. This two-day conference aims to assess the current state of research\, rethink established methodologies and explore possible future directions in the field. Its primary goal is to foster discussion among different generations of scholars whose research outputs are often separated by language and methodological barriers. \nThe conference is organised by Adriano Aymonino and Kathleen Christian. \n\nCall for Papers\nWe invite proposals for twenty-minute papers.\nDeadline: 15 May 2025 \nFind out more about the Call for Papers.
