AzLab#66 | Tiled interiors on paper

AzLab#66 | Tiled interiors on paper
April 21st, 2021 | 18h00 [UTC] | via Zoom [session to be held in English]

 

Tiled interiors on paper. Trade catalogues as a key source to understand the use of tiles in european interiors
 
In April, AzLab travels to Belgium, where the researcher Mario Baeck is developing a postdoctoral project on the sources of inspiration and the international trends that have shaped tile production. In this session, Mario Baeck will explore a little-studied topic: the recourse to factory catalogues as unique sources of information for a better understanding of tiled interiors from the 19th and 20th centuries, the prevailing taste and commissions, and the circulation of decorative shapes and motifs in Europe and around the world. Be sure to join!
 
Registration via Google forms  or by e-mail (redeazulejo@letras.ulisboa.pt).
Once the session is scheduled, each participant will receive the link and a password.

Invited speaker:
Mario Baeck [Postdoctoral researcher, Doctor in Art Sciences, Ghent University Belgium]
