>Object Excavation - Intervention: Dialogues between Sculpture and
>Archaeology
>4 to 5 June 2004, Leeds, United Kingdom
>
>This two-day international and interdisciplinary conference aims to
>bring together archaeologists and art historians to discuss the links
>between sculpture and archaeology. We invite papers, for example,
>that look at:
>
>- The history of archaeological thought and archaeological discovery
>in relation to the history of sculpture
>- Archaeology as a metaphor in modernity and psychoanalysis
>- Issues of depth/surface and the role of discovery and revelation
>- Myths of origins and the ways in which the archaeological dig, the
>cave and the quarry have been variously appropriated
>- The philosophy of place and the ways in which questions of
>site-specificity are significant to both sculpture and archaeology (in
>urban, rural and industrial environments)
>- How notions of 'archaism' and 'classicism' etc. have been
>constructed through archaeology and have been taken up politically
>by sculptors, archaeologists and writers at different times
>
>We are very interested in papers that trace those historical
>moments when there seems to have been a 'symbiosis' between
>sculpture and archaeological discovery, from c. 1700 to the present.
>We are also particularly interested in reading proposals from
>archaeologists who are interested in sculpture and who are
>interested in sharing new approaches to archaeology with sculpture
>historians.
>
>Conference chairs include: Anne Wagner (Berkeley), Barbara
>Bender (UCL) and Thomas Dowson (Manchester).
