Subject: [Wac] Call for Applications: The Arts of Rome's Provinces (Getty Foundation Seminar)
PLEASE DISTRIBUTE:
The question of how we understand the art of the Roman provinces urgently
requires reexamination in light of new thinking about colonialism and imperialism,
set within the framework of an increasingly global world. At the
same time that Anglophone art historians and archaeologists are querying
whether we still can use the early 20th century concept of “romanization” — the
processes by which cultures were brought in contact and materially changed by
the Roman imperial presence — innovative art historical and archaeological
techniques, theories, and analytic strategies permit us to explore the art of
the provinces with fresh excitement and sometimes unexpected results.
This seminar, sponsored by the Getty Foundation, is designed to bring together
a diverse international group of historians, art historians, museum
professionals, and archaeologists interested in both theoretical issues of
“romanization” and the particular manifestations of material culture in the
various provinces. Our intention is to promote and provoke a broad
conversation about the future of this developing field. Two intensive
two-week sessions are envisaged: one in Great Britain (May 2011) and one in
Greece (January 2012). The seminar will be led by Professor Emerita
Natalie Boymel Kampen (Columbia University) and Professor Susan E. Alcock
(Brown University), in conjunction with a team of distinguished international
scholars.
We
now call for applications to join this traveling seminar. We
particularly welcome expressions of interest from individuals at the junior or
mid-career level, from the diverse range of fields mentioned above.
Applicants must have an appropriate terminal degree such as the M.A.,
M.Phil., M.F.A., or Ph.D. Current students (including those of ABD status) may
not apply.
Application due November 1, 2010
