The Italian Art Society is delighted to share the call for proposals for the 13^th Annual IAS/Kress Lecture in Italy, to be held June 28, 2024, in Torino. This series seeks to promote intellectual exchanges among art historians of North America and the international community of scholars living or working in Italy. This Lecture is supported by the IAS and the Samuel H. Kress Foundation. 

Applications are invited from senior or established scholars based in North America (esteemed publication record and PhD required). Proposed lectures may address any period in Italian art from antiquity to the early 19^th century (1800-1830), but must be related to the host city of Torino or its environs. Lectures may be given in English or Italian. Please note: Lectures must not have been previously published or presented, and applicants must be members of IAS at the time of application and presentation of lecture. Current IAS officers are not eligible to apply. The presenter will receive an honorarium of $800 and a $1250 supplementary lecture allowance that may be used for travel, lodging, or translation expenses.

To apply, please submit a 1-page cover letter, 250–500-word abstract of the proposed lecture, and current CV to Tenley Bick at president@italianartsociety.org by March 30.
