SUMMARY:Against the Medici: Art and Dissent in Renaissance Italy
DESCRIPTION:Conference program. As patrons of art\, the Medici left a le
 gacy that is unrivaled. Their well-known narrative lies at the center of
  Renaissance scholarship. The Medici patronized painters and sculptors\,
  founded academies\, preserved and curated their collections\, and used 
 both artists and artworks as political tools to convey their agendas and
  augment their prestige amongst the courts of Italy and Europe. Yet\, ju
 st as Medici identity was expressed in terms of this cultural patrimony\
 , so too were the attacks of their enemies. A rich corpus of anti-Medice
 an works of art remains underappreciated and understudied: works of art 
 that communicated messages of opposition\, hostility and even hate that 
 struck at the very heart of the political identity of the Medici dynasty
 . Recognizing the role that art\, artists\, and artistic patronage playe
 d in opposing the Medici (roughly from Cosimo the Elder to the end of th
 e sixteenth century)\, this two-day event\, sponsored by the Medici Arch
 ive Project and the Archivio di Stato in Florence\, will address this la
 cuna. The keynote speaker will be Paolo Simoncelli (Sapienza - Universi
 tà di Roma).
