- Summary:
- Visual studies emerged in the context of a growing awareness of the impact of visual media on society and culture; from the 1990s onwards, art historians no longer had an exclusive patent on the study of the visual medium. This volume follows the developments in the iconological methods in visual arts and offers a platform for collaboration between individuals and institutions interested in the evolution of iconological interpretation. Sharing lectures, ideas, methods, and old and current research on iconology, this account promotes the further study and exploration of making, meaning, and migration of images in art history.
