The first colloquium will take place on Monday, October 31 - all of the events will be from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m. in the seminar room of the Villa, Harnack Straße 5.
"Baroque Color Theory and Still Life Painting"
Karin Leonhard (MPIWG) discusses the possible implications of Baroque concepts of color and color change in seventeenth-century Dutch and Italian still life painting.
The guiding question is: when and why did colour stop being an inherent quality of bodies and become the product of surface textures interacting with light?
