Interim meeting
of the ICOM-CC working group Art Technological Source Research
Vienna, Academy
of Fine Arts, 23. - 24. September 2010
Technology and
Interpretation
Reflecting the
artistÕs Process
After three successful
Symposia in Amsterdam (2004), Madrid (2006) and Glasgow (2008), the ICOM-CC
working group Art Technological Source Research is organising its fourth international symposium,
which will be hosted by the Institute for Conservation and Restoration of the
Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna.
The focus of this
meeting will be to reflect on the artistic process as manifested in the artwork
itself and as documented in visual and written sources. The aim is to open a
forum for discussion of ongoing technological research interpreting art from
all disciplines and periods and exploring artistsÕ practice as recorded in
treatises, manuals, artistÕs correspondence, journals and also images such as
photographs, films or prints etc. We especially welcome papers on the artistic
process of modern and contemporary artists.
We hope to bring
together members of the ATSR working-group but welcome and encourage all
interested in art technological source research to submit abstracts. It is
intended that Archetype Publications Ltd. will publish the papers as
proceedings.
We invite abstracts of
500 words in English, both for presentations and posters.
Deadline for
submission is Monday, March 8th, 2010
The conference will be
in English.
Please send abstracts
to Sigrid Eyb-Green, coordinator ATSR interim meeting 2010:
The organizers seek to
widen participation at this conference, so we would be grateful if you could
