The Words of Vitruvius: Between Archaeological Findings and Vulgarizations.
Fano, Centro Studi Vitruviani, Oct 16–17, 2025 Deadline: Jun 15, 2025
Besides representing a testimony of extraordinary relevance for the knowledge of construction techniques and theoretical principles of the art of building according to the Romans and Greeks, Vitruvius’ De Architectura contains a lexical repertoire of notable extent and complexity, fundamental for the reconstruction of the ancient architectural vocabulary and for the investigating the link between language, building practices and the transmission of knowledge. But how did these relations evolve over time? And how has the degree of understanding of Vitruvian terms changed, affecting their transcription, translation and interpretation?
The conference moves from the purpose of exploring these questions from an interdisciplinary perspective, sifting the Vitruvian lexicon in its multiple . . . → En lire plus

EXHIBITING THE HOLOCAUST 1945–2025: GENEALOGIES AND LEGACIES
Freie Universität Berlin, Berlin, Nov 13–14, 2025 Deadline: Jun 30, 2025
The first exhibitions on the Holocaust were organized in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. These were mostly created by survivors, either individually or through newly established institutions such as historical commissions, which were active in many DP camps and across Europe. These early exhibitions presented materials gathered to document the persecution and genocide of Jews in Europe. This unprecedented effort laid the groundwork for the establishment of memorials and museums in later decades and shaped the display strategies of future exhibitions. This conference seeks to look back and historicize the practice of Holocaust exhibitions from 1945 to the present, reflecting on different strategies, genealogies, and legacies. . . . → En lire plus

Women in Photography 1839-1939 Practitioners, Labourers, Entrepreneurs in a Global Perspective.
Brera Academy of Fine Arts, Milan, Nov 20–21, 2025 Deadline: Jun 15, 2025
Final conference of PRIN 2022 PNRR NextGenerationE U funded project Fotografiste: Women in Photography from Italian Archives, 1839-1939, conduced by IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca (PI) and Brera Academy of Fine Arts Milan.
Why are there so few women in the history of photography? Scholarly contributions have highlighted the obstacles that hindered women’s success in photography, as well as the ideological foundations of photographic history that have kept them invisible within dominant narratives. Despite this, the role of women in photography remains under-researched, particularly on those practitioners active between the invention of the medium around 1839 and the outbreak of World War II . . . → En lire plus

Appel à communication : « Autres objets, autres enjeux ? Les catalogues d’exposition hors du champ des arts visuels » (Grenoble, 6-7 novembre 2025)
Appel à communications pour une journée d’étude qui se tiendra à Grenoble (Université Grenoble Alpes et Musée dauphinois) les 6 et 7 novembre 2025
Après plusieurs journées d’études appréhendant le catalogue d’exposition d’arts visuels comme un objet d’étude en soi (Paris 2023 et 2024, Bordeaux 2025), ce titre sous forme de question est volontairement provocateur. Il reprend en effet, pour évidemment le questionner, un partage entre musées des Beaux-arts et musées autres qui a structuré la vision des musées du point de vue de l’action publique, et qui a renvoyé dans une catégorie définie par défaut des musées extrêmement . . . → En lire plus

Ports et territoires méditerranéens : circulation des biens culturels, constitution des collections extra-européennes (XVIIe-XXIe siècles)
Ce colloque propose d’analyser la constitution des collections publiques et privées des biens culturels extra-européens autour du bassin méditerranéen. Depuis l’Antiquité, et jusqu’au monde contemporain, la Méditerranée demeure un carrefour stratégique de la circulation des biens, des personnes et des idées, un « espace-mouvement » comme l’a défini Fernand Braudel. Les villes ports (Marseille, Toulon, Gênes, Barcelone…) constituent les plaques tournantes pour l’arrivée des objets et leur diffusion auprès des marchands, . . . → En lire plus

Artists and Collections: Histories, Practices and Interactions, International Scientific Conference
The establishment of preferential relationships between artists and the possession of objects and works of art can be a complex matter. These relationships may be distant in terms of formal characteristics, or, conversely, they may be the primary reference models for the artists’ production. Conversely, artists have frequently engaged in various activities with collectors, contributing to the formation and understanding of collections.
The objective of the conference, scheduled for 2-3 December 2025 at Università IULM in Milan, is to investigate the intricacies of the relationships between artists and collections of objects and works of art from the Middle Ages to the contemporary era. The investigation will adopt an interdisciplinary approach, integrating traditional research into the history of art . . . → En lire plus

Cultural Entanglements: European and Ibero-American Baroque Architecture (Mexico, 15-19 avril 2026)
Society of Architectural Historians 2026 Annual International Conference. Session: Cultural Entanglements: European and Ibero-American Baroque Architecture. Berthold Hub.
Ibero-American historiography tends to explain Spanish Baroque architecture as the outcome of purely internal Iberian developments. The rich surface decoration, which covers façades and retablos in particular, but sometimes also entire rooms, are explained by the Islamic and Morisco or Mudejar ornamentation and its continuation in the so-called Plateresque style of the sixteenth century, in short: by “invariantes castizos,” according to Fernando Chueca Goitia.
Numerous motifs, however, appear to originate from the so-called “column books” of northern Alpine carpenter architects such as Wendel Dietterlin and Vredeman de Vries. Although John Moffitt rightly attributed the Spanish form of the Estípide . . . → En lire plus

International Working Group on Medical Wax Models
Medical wax model collections have been the subject of renewed scientific interest since the turn of the millennium. As part of the material turn, scholars in history and cultural studies increasingly study historical objects in museums and university collections. Wax moulages in particular, with their specific characteristics, have attracted attention from medical professionals and historians alike. A German-speaking Moulages Working Group was formed in Berlin in 2013, following a major international conference in Dresden 2009. Ten years later, at a meeting in Zurich in 2023, the circle of participants was expanded to represent collections from all over the world. As an international working group, we now take the next step and join the newly founded International Association of . . . → En lire plus

 Appel à communication : British Archeological Association 9th Romanesque Conference, « Romanesque: Transmission, Reception, Imitation » (Toulouse, Hôtel d’Assézat, 13-17 avril 2026)
The British Archaeological Association will hold the ninth in its series of biennial International Romanesque conferences in Toulouse from 13-17 April, 2026.
The theme of the conference is Romanesque: Transmission, Reception, Imitation and the aim is to examine not only the ways in which techniques, iconographic motifs and styles moved around Romanesque Europe but also the ways and reasons they were adopted, and particularly how they were transformed in their new environment. Some aspects of the question are well-researched: the movement of artists or masons, patronal activity and monastic affiliation are obvious examples, and perhaps in . . . → En lire plus

Colloque organisé par Anne-Laure Imbert et Naïs Virenque, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (HiCSA) en collaboration avec l’UCLouvain.
La peinture italienne des Tre-Quattrocento regorge de dispositifs de redoublement dont la visée est de renforcer l’efficacité discursive de l’image : réduplication de personnages, échos des gestes et positions des corps, cadres fictifs et architectures signifiantes, jeux d’écho de l’iconographie symbolique… Ces renforcements sémiotiques de l’image par l’image requièrent des choix compositionnels qui s’appuient tant sur l’érudition des peintres que sur une culture et des habitudes visuelles qu’ils partagent avec le spectateur. Ils impliquent une attention portée aux procédés de juxtaposition, de continuité ou de rupture, mais aussi de mise . . . → En lire plus

 Appel à communication : « Inventing Images » (Universität Stuttgart, 21-22 novembre 2025)
Argumentaire
The medieval Christian image is not only a statement and an argument but also serves to visualize specific perspectives; it could furthermore possess a documentary value. The authenticity sometimes attributed to images made them powerful agents for dogmatic, propagandistic, or representative purposes. The conference Erste Bilder / Inventing Images focuses on newly conceived images and explores the conditions under which such innovations were granted credibility.
Since Late Antiquity, depictions of Christ and the saints have been subject to discussions about their legitimacy and status. These debates also involved controversies concerning the authenticity of images. By the authenticity of images, we mean that they . . . → En lire plus
