Art History, Museology and Art Criticism within the IMT environment

In this presentation, I will try to give an outline of my research methodology and illustrate some of my main research interests. As an art historian, I focus my attention on four main domains: the relationship between art history and art patronage in the Renaissance and Baroque periods; museology and the history of collecting; art literature between the eighteenth and the twentieth century; the technological tools available to solve problems related to our cultural heritage as well as art historical ones. Among my ongoing research projects, I select the ones that best fit the IMT environment and research activities, in particular as far as MDCH and LYNX are concerned.
