INSIDE ILLUMINATIONS - Art Technical Research & the Illuminated Manuscript
Brussels, KIK-IRPA, 5 June 2014
Program & Registration: http://org.kikirpa.be/illuminations/index.html
Researching the components and technology of Western Manuscript Illuminations in the laboratory has become more widespread during the last decade. The great diversity of techniques, materials and tools used by illuminators to illustrate and decorate texts has become a challenging topic for scholars of manuscripts and medieval painting. Art technical research on illuminated manuscripts provides insights into provenance, workshop practice and the interrelationships between painting on parchment and painting on panel, wall and cloth. For conservators of manuscripts, moreover, collaboration with laboratories of scientific imaging and non-destructive material testing has become an important factor in making decisions about treatments and interventions. The conference Inside Illuminations is intended to advance interdisciplinary research on technical art history and the medieval illuminated manuscript by providing a forum for scholars working on specific manuscripts, on illuminators’ practice and on recently developed research tools and databases.
The conference is organized by the Royal Institute for Cultural Heritage (Brussels), Illuminare (Centre for the Study of Medieval Art, KU Leuven) and UCL (Louvain-la-Neuve).
