Artworks + Networks: Materializing Connectivity in Art Historical Research
With the revision of canonical accounts of art history and the rise of
digital humanities over the past two decades, networks have emerged as
useful tools for visualizing the redistribution of dominant art
historical narratives. Networks, however, represent nodes and edges, at
times obscuring the social realities in between, and art historical
scholarship on them has been critiqued for its lack of attention to art
objects themselves. This session therefore asks: How can the concepts of
network science be applied to art historical research? What new
questions might be drawn from an exploration of social networks of the
past? And how might artistic production itself be an instrumental
component of, or even a vehicle for, networked action? We aim to
consider the ways and means that network science might be used as a
methodological tool of inquiry within the discipline of art history, and
as a space to consider how networks have been understood historically
both by artists and art historians. This session calls for short paper
presentations, to be followed by a productive discussion/debate amongst
presenters and attendees about the ramifications of social network
science within art historical discourse. All disciplines, periods, and
perspectives are encouraged to submit proposals.
Session Chairs: Miriam Kienle, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign;
Claire Kovacs, Canisius College; Lauren Applebaum, University of
Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
