Transatlantic Dialogues in the History of Art
May 20-21, 2010
Institut national d'histoire de l'art / Terra Foundation for American Art
Europe, Paris, France

The Institut national d'histoire de l'art, Ecole normale supérieure, and
Université Paris-Ouest Nanterre La Défense, in association with the Terra
Foundation for American Art, are organizing a two-day scholarly event on May
20-21 with the theme "Transatlantic Dialogues in the History of Art." This
gathering will bring together a range of American and European scholars
working on diverse aspects of art and culture of the United States. While the
disciplinary terrain within art-historical scholarship is often circumscribed
by a nationalist framework for study and interpretation, especially within
the field of American art, the aim of this event is to open a dialogue around
the ways in which both culture and scholarship are traversed by
cross-cultural exchanges. This scholarly event will provide a forum for a
series of informal presentations and discussions on current research and
methodologies that foreground the importance of international dialogues.
Organized by Jody Patterson, Terra Foundation Teaching Fellow in American
Art, Institut national d'histoire de l'art, Ecole Normale Supérieure, and
Université Paris-Ouest Nanterre La Défense
