International Workshop: The Necropolis as Memoryscape
from: 16-9-2024 to 18-9-2024
Brief:
The workshop aims to study antique funerary art (burial edifices and the painting and sculpture associated with them), and its various modes of reception and study (academic or aesthetic) by the multifaceted, multicultural, and often deeply divided contemporary world of the Eastern Mediterranean. the chief aim would be to examine how funerary art reflects on the one hand mortuary habits, and, on the other, religious beliefs and social norms.
