The study presents a newly found archive of the Seminar of Art History of the Faculty of Arts of Palacký University in Olomouc, which maps a period (1948–1956) of the existence of this unjustly marginalized university institute of art history (1946–1956). At the same time, it tries to present the programme and specifics of this "forgotten" department of art history.

The Form and Material of Stucco Decoration: Developing Research Projects for Better Understanding, Conservation and Dissemination
  • Jan 1, 2025
  • Bulletin du Centre de recherche du château de Versailles
  • Giacinta Jean + 3 more

This article presents some research projects that have been conducted in recent years with the aim of investigating stucco decoration beyond its formal components, analyzing the fundamental role of technique within artistic expression. In 2015, the team at the University of Applied Arts and Sciences of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI) started to work on ‘The Art and Industry of Ticinese Stucco Artists from the Sixteenth to the Seventeenth Century’ to analyze the artistic process through which different stucco artists from southern Switzerland created important works of art in their homeland. An interdisciplinary working method was established allowing participants to study stucco decoration in a more comprehensive way. This project was followed in 2021 by ‘Resta di stucco’ or ‘Left in Amazement’, an initiative aimed at communicating with the wider public on this heritage that is little valued by local residents. Finally, in 2023, the international Erasmus+ project ‘Stucco Decoration across Europe’, led by the Department of Art History at Palacký University in Olomouc, offered the opportunity to create an interdisciplinary network of specialists ready to understand and preserve stucco decorations. The partners will share their interdisciplinary know-how gained through practice and university lectures to train a new generation of specialists in order to break down the sense of isolation currently felt in the field and to preserve this common European cultural heritage.

Pushing back frontiers: Towards a history of art in a global perspective
  • Oct 1, 2003
  • International Journal of Anthropology
  • Zijlmans Kitty

Traditionally, art history is a discipline focusing on the developments of Western art and architecture. It is time, however, to broaden our perspective. The world is changing, art is changing, somutatis mutandis is art history. This does not happen on its own accord. Art history needs rewriting and art historians have to do it. We need to take a critical look at our premises and points of departure, and we need to change the art historical curricula at universities and art schools. At Leiden University, the Netherlands, the Department of Art History has opted for a new orientation and decided to study the history of art from a global perspective. This means that students will meet with three lines of approach to the visual art and material culture from regions other than the West. Firstly, they are introduced to the art and material culture of Asian, African, and Amerindian civilizations by colleagues from those fields, which Leiden is so fortunate to have. The Faculty of Arts at Leiden University, houses a wide variety of language and culture studies of the world. The second approach focuses on interactions, mutual influences, and interculturalization processes in art and culture. And the third addresses methodical-theoretical reflection on art history in a global perspective. The aim here is to formulate a theoretical framework for the study of art worldwide, thereby pursuing ‘comparative art history’. In order to achieve these perspectives, exchanging ideas and concepts with anthropologists can be very productive.

In 1995, when the Society of Architectural Historians last held its annual conference in Seattle, a much higher proportion of its members had been trained and subsequently taught in art history departments than is the case today, when more have backgrounds in architecture and teach in schools of architecture. Another obvious shift can be seen in the locations of the architecture we study. Of the 183 papers originally scheduled to be presented at the SAH 2020 conference in Seattle, roughly a quarter focused on the architecture of the Caribbean, Latin America, Africa, Asia, and even Antarctica. That count does not include any of the papers that addressed the architecture of ethnic minorities both in Europe and in the English-speaking world, or that focused on the teaching of architectural history.
