The conference will develop a holistic reflection on the impact of material and visual expressions of the Etruscan civilization, from its discovery in the 15th century until the end of the 19h century, when Etruscology was established as an archaeological discipline. The aim will be to re-evaluate and seek to better define the characteristics of Etruscan material and visual culture into the process of artistic and cultural reception in the early modern and modern period, by looking specifically at the status, still not quite well defined, of Etruscan materiality, by trying to highlight and, if necessary, leave behind predetermined historiographic categories.

The deadline for paper proposals is Thursday 30 June 2022.
