Asian art: Forbes Symposium - Scientific Research in the Field of Asian art
Freer Gallery of Art September 29–October 1, 2005
Studies of the Sculptural Arts of Asia Using Scientific Methods
Papers which report the results of recent analytical or technical studies of works of art representative of the sculptural traditions of Asia are being sought. As with previous Forbes symposia on scientific research in the field of Asian art, it is hoped that the papers will show the impact of the use of scientific methods of study on broader questions of a technical, historical, or art historical nature. The theme is not intended to be limited to pure sculpture; a study on the sculptural aspects of other works of art would be a viable topic.
Speakers should plan on a 25-minute presentation and submit a final manuscript (3000–4000 words) at the time of the symposium to enable publication to proceed in a timely way. Funding to offset speakers travel expenses will be available. The language of the symposium is English.
Registration
There will be no conference fee, but advance registration is necessary.
