Special Edition of Art History Co-Edited by Emanuele Lugli

Posted on 13 April 2015

This month's special edition of Art History, 'To Scale', has been co-edited by Emanuele Lugli and Joan Kee (Michigan)

Art History April 2015; Volume 38, Issue 2 ‌As well as co-editing the April 2015 edition (Volume 38, Issue 2) of Art History, Emanuele has contributed two articles, 'Scale to Size: An Introduction' written with Joan Kee, and 'Measuring the Bones: On Francesco Di Giorgio Martini's Saluzzianus Skeleton'. The former article has developed from Emanuele's undergraduate module 'Art and Scale', while the latter has evolved from the 'Faith in Measurements' lecture which Emanuele gave in York on October 29, 2012.

This edition of Art History also features an article by another member of the Department, Whitney Davis: Scale and Pictoriality in Ancient Egyptian Painting and Sculpture.

It is planned to publish this volume, which was presented at the 2015 AAH Conference in Norwich this month, as a book.

Co-editor Joan Kee visited the department late last year to present a lecture Felix Gonzalez-Torres on the Art of Due Process in the Department's Research Seminar series.
