Getty Museum Conference: The Nude in the Pre-Modern World, 1400-1700
January 13, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
The Nude in the Pre-Modern World will explore representations of the undraped body outside of Europe ca. 1400-1700. Leading international scholars in West African, Persian, Japanese, South Asian, Mayan, and Inca cultures will discuss the varied attitudes toward the depiction, significance and reception of the unclothed body. This conference accompanies the major international loan exhibition The Renaissance Nude, which explores the artistic and cultural factors that led to the rise of naturalistically represented nudes in Italy, France, Germany, and the Netherlands from 1400-1530, at The Getty Center through January 27, 2019.
