About Technological Revolutions and Art History
Historically, science and the humanities were not thought of as two separate disciplines. In the 21st century, an unusual divide in the field of art history has been created between technically savvy scholars and those for whom it seems anathema. This conference seeks to encourage art historians to connect with the computer sciences in the 21st century both by reminding them that technology has always played a significant role in the pursuit of their field, and by providing an opening for them to be a part of the conversations that need to happen between practitioners in both areas.

Presentations in Part II of the symposium will examine how the invention of photography impacted the study of art and how current technological breakthroughs have the potential to promote new developments in the field of art history.
