Call for contributions: Sources on Art Technology
The sixth symposium of the ICOM-CC Working Group Art Technological Source Research, Monday 16th and Tuesday 17th of June 2014 at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
After five earlier successful symposia in Amsterdam, Madrid, Glasgow, Vienna and Brussels the biennial ATSR symposium returns to Amsterdam in 2014 for discussion about the working group's base: the art technological sources themselves and their research. The context for the 2014 symposium is the large collection of art technological sources from the Middle Ages until today in the library of the Rijksmuseum. Discussions will therefore concern: artist's notebooks, practical treatises, studio interiors, workshop inventories, documents on the trade in artists materials, and databases for art technological sources.
The preceding symposia showed that the profound disclosure of such material is of paramount importance for both art historical as well as material-technical research. This concerns insight into the coherence between the style of a work of art and the materials and techniques used in its production. Knowledge of documents containing information on production methods and knowledge of the conservation of art works are also indispensable. A better understanding of source material is therefore basic to all further study of art objects.
We wish to bring together members of the ATSR working-group again, but very much welcome and encourage all professionals interested in art technological source research to submit abstracts. We emphatically invite art historians to contribute, but also welcome relevant contributions from other disciplines, such as conservation science, book history, and the history of science and technology.
Contributions to the symposium are considered, either as oral presentations or as poster, on the assumption that they are not planned for publication elsewhere. They should be original material that has not been published. Contributions should be related to the research of art technological sources – printed or written, texts or images – through all times and places.
Call for papers and time table
It is intended that all papers presented will be published as postprints.
We invite abstracts of maximum 500 words in English, both for oral presentations and posters. The conference will be in English.
Abstracts can be submitted from 1 December 2013.
Deadline for abstract submission: 6 January 2014
Notification of acceptance/ rejection: 6 February 2014
