GhentCDH will attend the upcoming conference '(Re)searching connections. Artists’ which will provide a forum for scholarly exchange about the international social networks of artists active in the period 1750–1914. The conference, organized by Musea Brugge will be held in Rome, Italy, on 30 September and 1 October 2025. The conference is organized in collaboration with the Academia Belgica.
Embracing a broad chronological and geographical scope, we invite insights spanning the long nineteenth century and various global contexts. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue across art history, sociology, and digital humanities, and by connecting diverse methodologies and findings across specializations, we aim to deepen our understanding of the transnational social connections that “make” art history.
