‘Gesamtkunstwerk Weltausstellung’ – Revisioning World’s Fairs

Die 1851 in London erstmals ausgerichtete „Great Exhibition of all Nations“ synthetisierte nicht nur ‚die Welt‘, sondern verknüpfte als „Gesamtkunstwerk“ Kunsthandwerk und Architektur, Technik und Kunst. Seit ihren Anfängen finden sich die Weltausstellungen zwischen Industrie und Kultur, Kunst und Wissenschaft verankert. Technische Neuerungen werden dabei zur Profilierung genutzt, gilt es doch, den jeweiligen Gastgeber als fortschrittliche Industrienation in den Fokus zu rücken.

CFP: Provenance of Things (Göttingen, 27-31 March 2019)

Published on by Art Market Studies

Provenance of Things. On the Reception of Object Biographies

Section 5 of the XXXV Congress of German Art Historians
at the Georg-August-Universität
in Göttingen (27 – 31 March 2019)
Closing date for submissions: 25 May 2018

http://kunsthistorikertag.de/en/announcement/#_Session_5

This session focuses on the relationship between the individual history of an object and how it is perceived. Papers should clearly show the indivisible interdependence of the object and its history of ownership. We would like to focus on three related questions: What effect does the provenance of an object have on its material as well as non-material value? How do the history of ownership, exhibition and discourse of an object influence its reception on the art market, by private and public collectors as well as its coverage in the media? And how is this modified perception of objects reflected by their exhibition in museums? Continue reading “CFP: Provenance of Things (Göttingen, 27-31 March 2019)” →

University Computing Centre
November 12 – 14, 2018
Deadline: May 31, 2018

The conference organized in Zagreb, Croatia by the Institute of Art History, University Computing Centre, and DARIAH-HR is aiming at bringing together established and early career academics, the researchers from the independent digi-labs and professionals involved with the transdisciplinary research initiatives, who are interested in critically examining recent methodological, analytical and theoretical developments in the field of Digital Art History.

We invite proposals for individual papers on all aspects of the following, broadly defined subjects:

  • digital art history tools – the application of digital tools, techniques and methodologies drawn from Information Science and related disciplines used to create new approaches and understandings of art history, architecture, design and visual culture
  • digital art history infrastructures – institutional and technological framework of Digital Art History: development, and accessibility of digital research infrastructures, services and resources (libraries, archives, data repositories, databases, digital museum and cultural heritage collections); institutional support and availability of new technologies
  • digital art history practices – collaborative research groups, research networks and platforms; interdisciplinarity, transdisciplinarity, theories and epistemologies of Digital Art History
  • digital art history polices – ‘power centres’ and ‘new’ peripheries – economic, social, political and cultural dimension of Digital Art History and its capacity for self-reflection
