(Re)searching connections. Artists’ international social networks (1750-1914)

Activity: ConsultancyAcademic

Description

The two-day international academic conference presents recent and ongoing research into the social networks of artists who lived, studied, and worked abroad in the period 1750–1914. The conference is organized in collaboration with the Academia Belgica.

Embracing a broad chronological and geographical scope, the conference brings together insights spanning the long nineteenth century and various global contexts. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue across art history, sociology, and digital humanities, and by connecting diverse methodologies and findings across specializations, we aim to deepen our understanding of the transnational social connections that “make” art history.

The conference was organized by Musea Brugge and held at the Academia Belgica in Rome. I acted as a member of the scientific committee and chair at the conference.
