The online series “Lunch Lectures on Ancient Sculpture”, organized by Elisa Bazzechi and Caterina Parigi in cooperation with the Forschungsarchiv für Antike Plastik, aims to create a broadly accessible platform for the discus-
sion of current research about ancient sculpture.
We would like to grant visibility to new projects dealing with sculptures as well as the possibility to present and discuss outstanding problems and questions. Furthermore, it will help us to stay up to date about new research and
to network with scholars who are working on same topics on an international scale.
The lectures will be organized in thematical series (the first series “New Research on Contexts” took place from May to July 2024). The fourth series with the title “Ancient Portraits:Perspectives and Current Research” will take place from May to July 2026 on the last Wednesday of each month from 12:30-14:00. Lectures can be held in English, French, German
or Italian, and are expected to take 30-45 minutes, followed by an in depth discussion.
If you would like to stay up to date about the series, please send an email to the organizers
to sign up for the newsletter.
