Art and Archaeology Seminar
Thursday 13th November 2008, 10am - 4.30pm | The Study Gallery, Poole. Bournemouth
Art inspired by archaeology, archaeology as art. What relevance has our past for contemporary artists? Past lives have shaped our landscape, left their mark though accident or design – how is our landscape interpreted visually as well as scientifically. What stories are evoked by the art and artefacts of our ancestors?
Using the works in the accompanying exhibition as a starting point, Engaging with Art and Archaeology will offer a stimulating series of presentations and discussions exploring the relationship between art and archaeology.
The day is aimed at professional artists from ALL disciplines and will include the opportunity for questions, discussion and debate.
