Wechselwirkungen. Dialoge zwischen Kunst und (Kultur-)Wissenschaften: Körper, Gender und Medium in den Bildkünsten der frühen Neuzeit

In the organizer's words:

The lecture series "Interactions" provides insights into the workshop of methodological debates in art and cultural studies. Two speakers each from the fields of art history, technical art history, art sociology, aesthetics and philosophy are invited, whose research has points of contact in terms of content and methodology - and whose approaches can be placed in a dialog. As diverse as the epochs, subject areas and methodological approaches to the respective subjects are, the contributions as a whole focus on the question of how the fields of the arts and sciences 'interact' with each other.
