The Gallery, London, 17 March 2018
The Society is pleased to announce the programme for this year’s Architectural History Workshop on Saturday 17 March 2018 at The Gallery, 70 Cowcross Street, London, EC1 6EL. This is our annual event for Postgraduate Students and Early Career Scholars, convened by the Society’s PhD Scholars, to share and develop their ideas through ‘lightning’ rounds, where contributors are invited to speak for ten minutes either as a short developed paper, discursive ramble, thematic exploration, or any format that explores and presents their PhD research.
The Workshop will also include a Careers in Architectural History Roundtable, featuring Ben Cowell, Director of the Historic Houses Association, and Neal Shasore, Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at Liverpool School of Architecture. The full programme and registration form can be found on our website. As places are limited, booking is essential. Register online until 10 March 2018.
New Book | Piranesi: Studies in Honor of John Wilton-Ely
As noted in Salon, the newsletter of the Society of Antiquaries of London, issue 402 (6 March 2018) . . .
On 31 January John Wilton-Ely FSA was presented with a festschrift at a ceremony at the Instituto Centrale per la Grafica, Palazzo Poli, Rome, in recognition of his services to scholarship on the life and works of Giovanni Battista Piranesi, FSA (elected 1757). The publication is volume 32 of the art historical journal, Studi sul Settecento Romano (Sapienza Università di Roma), entitled Giovanni Battista Piranesi, predecessori, contemporanei e successori: Studi in onore di John Wilton-Ely. The papers were formally delivered in 2016 at a special conference arranged by the Royal Swedish Academy in the Royal Palace at Stockholm, which contains a significant collection of Piranesi’s imaginatively restored classical antiquities, acquired by Gustav III from the artist’s former museo in Rome.
