Poster: "Eyelashes of Inlaid Eyes - Technique and Meaning" 18.04.2018, XXth International Congress on Ancient Bronzes - Resource, Reconstruction, Representation, Role. University of Tuebingen, Germany

XX th International Congress on Ancient Bronzes 17.04. - 21.04.2018 Institute for Classical Archaeology Tübingen Resource, Reconstrution, Representation, Role Our understanding of ancient bronzes has grown signiicantly in the last decades through several studies and collaborative research projects – including the International Congresses on Ancient Bronzes –, but it is far from complete. We still need to explore questions concerning bronze(s) as resource, on their reconstruction, the motives and subjects represented, and on the function of bronzes in society. In the ancient world, bronzes – from over-lifesize sculptures to small-scale objects – were an omnipresent and integral part of public and private everyday life. Bronze was also a valuable resource. From a scientiic point of view, the last decades saw new methods of analyses to reconstruct the production processes of ancient bronzes. Besides modern analysis, research on ancient bronze sculpture is still relying on theories and methodologies developed in art history to discuss the style and chronology. Irrespective of the nature of the object – may it be sculpture, tool, or weapon – the role and function of the bronzes need to be studied in conjunction with the archaeological context with which the objects were once associated. The conference aims at addressing these four key topics and bringing together experts from diferent backgrounds in order to develop further the study on ancient bronzes.
