Linking Islamic and Christian Art - Transfer and Comparison
Forum for Young Researchers
The Forum seeks to bring together scholars investigating the artistic relations between Christian and Islamic contexts. The focus will not merely lie on giving concrete evidence for transcultural contacts, but
also on contextualising objects and comparing the function of certain motives and the roles of artists, patrons and beholders within their societies. We will question the categorisation of objects into
'Christian' and 'Islamic' and discuss concepts such as 'style', 'cultural identity', 'the Mediterranean' or 'borders' , as well as the relation between comparative studies and the analysis of transfer.
