SUMMARY:Polychromy? ... It’s all Greek to me! - Dr Hannelore Hägele\, S

DESCRIPTION:A light-hearted rejoinder to a problematic issue - to begin wi
 th - for the PowerPoint talk will focus on Polychrome Sculpture\, a topic 
 which has seriously engaged scholars for more than two centuries\, and scu
 lptors and painters for much\, much longer. I propose to highlight some hi
 storical\, philosophical and technical aspects to which my own research ha
 s led me. The subject has a multi-disciplinary nature\, art historical in 
 the first instance\, while scientifically grounded in conservation techniq
 ues and what these can reveal. Culturally seen\, polychrome sculpture has 
 been celebrated and condemned\, revived and misunderstood\, and shunned by
  purists who would have nothing to do with colour in sculpture. But is it 
 really just form versus colour?
