Advanced Topics in Digital Art History: 3D and (Geo)Spatial Networks
June 4-16, 2018 in Venice, Italy
Digital Technologies for Historical and Cultural visualization are
transforming the ways that scholars can study and represent works of art,
as well as growth and change in urban spaces and structures.
With the support of The Getty Foundation as part of its Digital Art History
initiative, The Wired! Lab for Digital Art History & Visual Culture at Duke
University, the University of Padua’?s Architecture and Engineering program
and Venice International University are collaborating on a Summer Workshop
that will support interdisciplinary teams focused on the hard questions of
Digital Art History as a discipline, a set of methods, and a host of
technical and institutional challenges and opportunities.
After five editions of two-weeks summer workshops introducing concepts and
methods for digital art and architectural history through hands-on
tutorials and collaborative project development, the program for 2018 will
shift to focus on advancing the field of digital art and architectural
history through a combination of project-sharing, technology exploration,
and academic discussion. After the initial two-week gathering in Venice, we
still stay in touch as a community over the course of the next year,
reconvening for one week in 2019 to write up and assess our work.
This workshop is different than our earlier Visualizing Venice workshop
iterations in that we are asking people to apply as teams of 2 or 3, and
with a Digital Art History Mapping and/or Modeling project already in
place, and which they hope to develop further in conversation with the
group. The focus of applicant projects does not need to be on Venice or
Visualizing Cities, though projects related to those themes are welcome. We
will expect participants to share their working projects files with the
group, and will work with selected participating teams in advance of the
meeting to customize the curriculum to fit the needs and interests of the
group.
Alums of our previous introductory workshops are welcome to apply, as are
new participants, from the US and abroad. Thanks to the generosity of the
Getty Foundation, we are able to offer support for tuition, travel, board
and accommodation expenses.
