Contents:
Based on a close reading of Michael W. Cole's monograph Leonardo, Michelangelo and the art of the figure (2014), the seminar deals with pre-modern concepts of the body. The focus is not so much on an epochal cross-section to show how the relationship between art and the body successively changed, but rather on the question of individual aspects that significantly determined this relationship in different contexts. How and under what conditions did the human body become the main object of visual art in the 16th century? What ideas and discoveries shaped this development? With what aesthetic intrinsic values were bodies associated? What role did gender concepts play in this process?
