Art of the Lost Conference at Canterbury Cathedral
Wednesday 27 November - Friday 29 November 2019 How and why art is defaced, destroyed or lost? Canterbury Cathedral's latest conference will explore current and developing studies of how art changes, is reused or repurposed, disappears or is rediscovered, with a particular focus on art within the context of cathedrals, churches or other places of worship. Covering art from the 6th Century to modern day it will consider changing ideologies, iconoclasm, war, fashion and symbolism. Over three days curators, conservators, scientists, historians, archaeologists, and artists from the UK, Europe and the USA will look at how, and why art is defaced, destroyed or is lost within architectural settings. With a particular focus on art within the context of cathedrals and other places of worship, the conference considers changing ideologies, iconoclasm, war, fashion and symbolism. It will discuss art from the 6th century to the modern day. Delegates will also be treated to exclusive access to the Cathedral's collections, behind the scene tours of conservation in action, of the wall paintings and graffiti, all within the beautiful setting of Canterbury Cathedral.
