Lecture | Jeffrey Collins at University of Bern’s ‘Interior’ Series
Jeffrey Collins offers the second in a three-part lectures series at the University of Bern’s 2012-13 lecture series:
Lecture Series: The Interior
University of Bern/Switzerland, 2012-13
This lecture series is part of the SNSF Sinergia project The Interior: Art, Space, and Performance (Early Modern to Postmodern) which is based at the Institute of Art History, University of Bern, and is conducted in cooperation with the Institute of Media Culture and Theatre, University of Cologne. Proceeding from a heterogeneous and dynamic conception of the interior drawn from various media, styles, and contexts, this interdisciplinary project investigates diverse theoretical and interpretative models of interiors in art, theatre, and visual culture from the Early Modern to the Contemporary eras.
