Panofsky Lecture 2025 // Marisa Bass, New Haven: Holbein’s Margins: Printing Alliances in Renaissance Basel
Rather than focusing on Holbein as a learned artist, this lecture begins with the premise that he was an opportunistic one.
Panofsky Lecture 2024 // Denis Ribouillault: Calypso's Grotto: Art, Nature, and the Metamorphic Power of Love
The lecture will focus on the theme of Calypso's Grotto in early modern art.
Panofsky Lecture 2023 // Andrea Pinotti: Cyber-monuments. Memorialisation today between Virtual and Augmented Reality
The digital revolution is often presented as a process of demate-rialisation of experience and media. On the contrary, the notion of “matter” needs to be broadened to include digital entities. This is demonstrated by contemporary digital practices of memorialisation, which on the one hand innovate the concept of monument, but on the other confirm its status as social memory externalised on a support. In my lecture I will try to investigate this condition, exploring some relevant case-studies related to the two main technologies: virtual reality (immersive) and augmented reality (emersive).
Panofsky Lecture 2022 | James Loeb Lecture 2022 // Maria Fabricius Hansen: Issues of Translation: ‘Renaissance’, ‘Antique’, and ‘Classical’ revisited
This lecture juxtaposes the conventional definitions of the Renaissance, through its endeavors to revive or renew Roman Antiquity, with observations of paintings and buildings of the fifteenth century in order to reconsider the characteristics of Italian visual culture of the time.
