CONF: Andrea Bregno, Giovanni Santi e la cultura adriatica
del Rinascimento, Urbino, 24-25 giugno 2006
The symposium is part of the scholarly events
dedicated to Andrea Bregno, a Lombard practicing principally in Rome,
and focusses on this pivotal, but still little understood,
figure called "gran componitore" and "Polycletus" in his own day at the end
of the 15th century. His relationship with Giovanni Santi, (artist, writer
and father of Raphael) and Michelangelo (little known documents and
a terracotta model--inspiration for his famous Pietà--will be
presented) will be addressed, as well as the many and varied works of Bregno and
his workshop which influenced and enriched Roman sculpture in this watershed
period. Bregno's significant role in the standardization and
dissemination of a truly classicizing style of epigraphy also will be
explored.
The Acts will be published in 2007.
