Off the Front. European Artists and the Vietnam War (Rome, 17-18 May 27)

Off the Front. European Artists and the Vietnam War (1955–1975).

Rome, Bibliotheca Hertziana – Max Planck Institute for Art History, May 17–18, 2027 Deadline: Dec 20, 2026

This workshop examines how the Vietnam War was interpreted, mediated, and mobilized across a range of European artistic practices that reflected critically on the geopolitical alignments the conflict brought into view.

The years between 1955 and 1975, from the aftermath of the First Indochina War to the fall of Saigon, coincide with some of the most radical transformations in European art and visual culture. If this period witnessed a profound shift in the very status of the artwork, the Vietnam War offers a prism through which to examine how emerging artistic practices negotiated the demands of political engagement, the circulation of . . . → En lire plus

38th International Seminar on Architectural History (Vicenza, 26-27 May 27)

38th International Seminar on Architectural History | Baths, Spas and Health Resorts between the 15th and the 18th Centuries.

CISA Andrea Palladio, Vicenza, May 26–27, 2027 Deadline: Nov 15, 2026

The practice of bathing at different temperatures dates back to the use of natural thermal springs, becoming widespread in Roman times thanks to the development of efficient aqueducts and water-heating systems. In early modern Europe, the ruins of ancient thermal baths served as a testament to a lost culture of the body, while their architecture and function became subjects of study. Innovations in construction and hydraulics, underpinned by advances in medicine, led to the creation of new spaces for specific practices and social rituals of bathing – initially reserved for the few but later extended to the many.

Illustrated Magazines in Circulation (Nancy, 24-25 Jun 27)

Images, forms, formats: Illustrated Magazines in Circulation (1850-1950)

Université de Lorraine (IDEA) Co-organized with the Université de Picardie Jules Verne (CORPUS)

Université de Lorraine, 34 cours Léopold, 54000 Nancy, Jun 24–25, 2027 Deadline: Nov 23, 2026

Keynotes: Nora Ramtke (Universiteit Ghent) Benoît Tadié (Université de Paris Nanterre)

The rise of the magazine, as a media format (Jancovic, Volmar & Schneider 2020) or as a publishing genre (Beetham 1990), is inextricably tied to that of capitalist modernity, as their conceptual kinship with magasins and department stores attests (e.g., Brake 2001, Harris 2016). Initially organized as lists (Franzel 2025), and soon featuring increasingly lavish illustrations, magazines played a central role in constructing cultural imaginaries around an ever-expanding array of consumer practices and in dissseminating those imaginaries across geographical borders.

Extraktion und Abstraktion (Basel, 8-9 Apr 27)

Extraction and Abstraction: Material, Form, and Ecology in Modern Art.

Universität Basel, eikones – Zentrum für die Theorie und Geschichte des Bildes, Apr 8–09, 2027 Deadline: Nov 15, 2026

The concept of extraction has been gaining significant traction in the humanities over recent years. The extraction of physical raw materials is only one of the possible forms of extractive labor; the generation of data and knowledge can also be understood as a practice of extraction. From an ecological perspective, the term has gained importance particularly since industrialization, pointing toward a redefined relationship between humans and nature. In modern visual art, engaging with practices of material extraction is a central and recurring concern. Landscape depictions are permeated by forms and sites of resource extraction. With the rise of industrialization . . . → En lire plus

Capturing Iridescence in Early Modern Europe (Paris, 15-17 Sep 27)

Capturing Iridescence in Early Modern Europe (16th-19th century)

Paris, Sorbonne University, Sep 15–17, 2027 Deadline: Oct 5, 2026

“Iridescence” a term evoking Iris, the goddess of the rainbow, was first coined in most European languages in the early 19th century. Its first recorded instances in print point to the English language, via the work of mineralogists and geologists. That the word should have first appeared in the natural sciences comes as no surprise, given that nature has retained a “monopoly on this metallic-like, colored effect” (Parker 2016, 58) until the 21st century, when nanoscience allowed the advent of iridescence-inducing technologies such as pearlescent flakes (Schenk et al. 2013). Our conference will look into the work of artists, scientists & authors as they experimented with iridescence before it was . . . → En lire plus

New Horizons in American Art History (Philadelphia, 15-16 Apr 27)

New Horizons in American Art History

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, Apr 15–16, 2027 Deadline: Dec 15, 2026

The field of American art history was only just emerging in 1976. The Bicentennial generated a series of ambitious and influential exhibitions, including Philadelphia: Three Centuries of American Art (Philadelphia Museum of Art), Two Centuries of Black American Art (Los Angeles County Museum of Art), Selections of Nineteenth-Century Afro-American Art (The Metropolitan Museum of Art), American Art 1750-1800: Towards Independence (Yale University Art Gallery), and America as Art (National Collection of Fine Arts, now the Smithsonian American Art Museum). These shows and others asserted the vitality of American art, which, as one contemporary New York Times critic remarked, had previously been “widely condescended to in high places and often relegated to the . . . → En lire plus

History of Art x History of Science (Lausanne, 27-28 May 27)

History of Art x History of Science: Disciplinary Encounters, Tensions, and Transformations.

University of Lausanne, May 27–28, 2027 Deadline: Nov 16, 2026

The conference aims to trace the ways in which the disciplines of art history and the history of science have observed and influenced one another from the eighteenth century to the present day. While the last decades have seen a proliferation of studies devoted to the relationships between art and science (through research on the visual culture of science, epistemic images, the materiality of knowledge production, or the history of technology), the historical and theoretical interactions between the two fields have received surprisingly little attention as an object of inquiry in their own right.

We seek to understand how two disciplines that emerged at different moments and under . . . → En lire plus

Colloque : «D’après nature : pratique, théorie et limites d’un paradigme artistique»

« D’après nature ». Pratique, théorie et limites d’un paradigme artistique

Au terme des deux années consacrées au sujet bi-annuel « Nature » (2024-2026), dirigé par Peter Geimer et Pierre Wat, les boursières du Centre allemand d’histoire de l’art organisent ce colloque international consacré à l’examen du principe artistique « d’après nature ».

L’histoire de l’art occidentale n’a cessé de mesurer sa propre pratique à l’aune d’une formule dont l’évidence apparente masque une profonde instabilité. L’étude du syntagme « d’après nature » suppose un modèle, une fidélité, une distance, mais chacun de ces termes se dérobe dès qu’on l’examine de près. Prendre la nature pour modèle engage en effet une question que les traités artistiques européens ont continuellement reformulée . . . → En lire plus

Pour la première rencontre du cycle Ce qui demeure vivant. Rencontres d’art contemporain, Laurence Schmidlin, directrice du Musée d’art du Valais, dialoguera avec Nicolas Daubanes. Ensemble, ils reviendront sur la pratique de l’artiste, qui recourt à l’univers carcéral comme à une métaphore pour interroger les formes de contrainte et les structures d’exercice du pouvoir, ainsi que les stratégies de liberté, d’opposition et de résistance qu’elles font émerger.
