Rebooting the Postwar Academy
After World War II, Rome’s claim to be the caput mundi ceded
to a more complex and contested geography of global culture. And yet,
Rome did not fall off the map. One contributing factor was the city’s
constellation of national academies and cultural institutes that sponsor
residencies for artists and scholars. From 1945-1960, existing
institutions resumed their prewar programs, often in revised
form. During these years, a wider circle of nations also established new
centers. Collectively, they contributed to Rome’s persistence as a
capital of not just historic, but late-twentieth century culture.
This half-day workshop will present new information about
various challenges, people, and issues that shaped different
institutions’ histories between 1945-60. These discussions will add
depth, nuance, and context to currently available histories, showcase
research resources, and identify common themes and problems for future
analysis. In addition to presentations that focus on individual
academies, which will include site visits to three Valle Giulia
institutions built during the 1950s and 1960s, the workshop will
include two scholars whose work synthesizes the history of multiple
academies during the 1940s through the 1960s.
Frederick Whitling, Fellow
of the Swedish Institute in Rome, will present his findings on the
history of classical scholarship and research resources during and after
the war. Denise Costanzo, Fellow of the American Academy in Rome and
assistant professor of architecture at the Pennsylvania State
University, will share her research into the postwar Rome Prize in
architecture.
This workshop will begin at 14:00 at the Swedish Instiute, Via Omero 14. From
approximately 15:30-17:00 participants will visit the Danish Academy,
Egyptian Academy and the Japanese Cultural Institute. At 17:00 the
workshop’s final presentations will take place at the British School at
Rome, followed by a reception at 19:00.
Organizers: Frederick Whitling (Fellow, Swedish Institute in Rome) and Denise Costanzo (Fellow, American Academy in Rome and Assistant Professor of Architecture, the Pennsylvania State University).
