BORDI GIULIA
(syllabus)
The course will be divided into two modules.
The first module "Outlines of medieval art history from the 4th to the 11th century" aims to provide the students with a basic knowledge of Medieval art, with important examples of art works and monumental contexts between late Antiquity and the Year 1000 (IV-XI century).
The second module will offer a wider framework of Medieval Art, illustrating works of art and monumental contexts from the rebirth of the cities to the end of the Middle Ages (XI-XIV century).
These courses are designed to introduce the student to a critical reflection on Medieval Art (4th-14th century), providing methodological tools for understanding of the works and their study within historical and artistic processes. From this perspective, therefore, we will be focusing in depth on some major topics such as the relationship with classical antiquity; the role of patronage; function and use of space in the apse; models and their variants; the medieval workshop and its dynamics.
There will be also some visits of Medieval churches in Rome which are constitutive part of the exams program.
