Center for the Art and Architectural History of Port Cities
Naples
The Center for the Art and Architectural History of Port Cities, founded in 2018 as a collaboration between the Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte in Naples and the Edith O'Donnell Institute of Art History at The University of Texas at Dallas, takes the city of Naples as a laboratory for new research in the cultural histories of port cities and the mobilities of artworks, people, technologies, and ideas.
Housed in La Capraia, a rustic eighteenth-century agricultural building at the heart of the Bosco di Capodimonte, the Center is dedicated to exploring global histories of art, architecture, and cultural production while grounded in direct study of artworks, sites, and archives in Naples and Southern Italy.
Through research residencies, site-based seminars, and programs organized with partner institutions, the Center promotes scholarly access to Naples, fosters and communicates new research on Naples and on other port cities, and cultivates an intellectual community of students and scholars working at the intersection of the global and the local.
Download an overview of the Center here. A call for applications for the 2020/2021 Research Residencies at La Capraia will follow shortly.

CFP: Painting in Naples 1600-1656
61st Annual Meeting of the Renaissance Society of America, Berlin, March 26 - 28, 2015
Captivating female saints, violent martyrdoms, painted with quick palpable brushstrokes; intricate iconographies of mythology and devotion. Neapolitan painting is often characterized by art historians as being dramatic in expression, with a strong emphasis on naturalism and intense chiaroscuro. However, this portrayal does little to address its material, intellectual, and spiritual dynamics. This session seeks to explore the wealth of Neapolitan painting between 1600 - just before Caravaggio's arrival in the city - and the plague of 1656. Within this period, important foreign artists like Caravaggio, Ribera, Domenichino, Artemisia Gentileschi and Mattia Preti entered into a creative interaction with local artists like Caracciolo, Stanzione, Falcone and Cavallino. Their art developed divergently within the context of literary academies, the Neapolitan elite, the viceregal court and ecclesiastical institutions.
In this session, we want to address the most recent developments of international research on Neapolitan painting. We welcome papers on individual artworks that illustrate important aspects of Neapolitan art, such as materiality, spirituality, iconography, violence, intellectual context and patronage. By focusing on individual paintings, we aim to create a virtual “Galleria” of Neapolitan art.
Please send your 150 word-abstract with title and key words and your CV (max. 300) to Bogdan Cornea (ibc500@york.ac.uk) and Marije Osnabrugge (m.g.c.osnabrugge@uva.nl). Deadline 1 June.
CFP: 17th century landscape
This session is devoted to explore the boundaries between topographical and generic landscape paintings in the early modern period. It will investigate how landscape relates to real place, and to what extent it provides a portal into an imaginative or ancient world, or is mediated by a text that is a description of place. Landscapes associated with the mythical and archaeological landscape of Italy are an obvious theme, but lots of other topics are warmly welcomed as well (see the attachment for the options: CFP: 17th century landscape (PDF , 99kb)). For further info contact Helen Langdon (organiser): Helenlangdon@hotmail.com. Deadline 2 June.

The ARC Centre of Excellence for The History of Emotions in collaboration with the University of Adelaide, is delighted to announce the "Ritual, Power & Emotions Conference". Our Professor Helen Hills will examine the interplay between the material and spiritual matters, both enganged in the slippery question of the relic. The paper is meant to provide two prominent cases for that: the miracolously liquefying bloods of St John the Baptist and San Gennaro (St Janarius), in Naples, and Stefano Maderno's St Cecilia (1600) in the Basilica of Santa Cecilia in Trastevere.

Call for Papers
We invite contributions for a forthcoming interdisciplinary volume on the reception and cultural memory of Naples' classical past from antiquity to the present.
The volume will examine how the literary, archaeological and cultural traces of antiquity have been preserved in (and have shaped) the city, both within the Greco-Roman period and in later eras.
Potential areas for exploration might include: the use of the city’s Greek heritage to construct a distinctive Roman identity, the medieval use of classical spolia, early Renaissance city-guides and their treatment of classical monuments, the representation of ruins in the presepe Napoletano, De Jorio’s treatise on Gesture in Naples and Gesture in Classical Antiquity, the formation of the great Neapolitan collections of ancient art, and the memory of the classical past in contemporary Neapolitan culture.
The editors would welcome informal enquiries from potential contributors.
The initial deadline for titles and abstracts is 15th November 2010; the deadline for completed papers will be Autumn 2011.
An e-seminar on this topic is also planned for Spring 2011.
