SUMMARY:Artists\, Avarice and Ambition in Europe\, 1300-1600 April 2015\
 , University of East Anglia\, Norwich
DESCRIPTION:In&nbsp\;Trecento&nbsp\;Italy Giotto di Bondone was working 
 on major commissions in Florence whilst buying property and conducting c
 omplex business transactions in the rural Mugello. Michelangelo\, as rec
 ently published documents show\, also accumulated wealth from a variety 
 of sources in addition to his art. In sixteenth century Northern Europe 
 Dürer exemplified the spirit of commercial enterprise by employing agen
 ts to sell his engravings and find new markets for his works all over th
 e Netherlands. Less commonly women artists made economic contributions t
 o family workshops. The commercial astuteness of the engraver and printm
 aker Diana Scultori\, who held a Papal Privilege allowing her to sign an
 d market her work\, is a notable example. Artists were ambitious and mon
 ey mattered. The economic interaction between artists\, patrons\, instit
 utions and ideologies in Europe 1300 -1600 is the focus of ongoing criti
 cal study\, including recent exhibitions exploring the influence of bank
 ers\, merchants and international trade on art and artists.&nbsp\;This s
 ession&nbsp\;encourages a multidisciplinary approach to debate the idea 
 of the artist as businessman or woman. It will consider the ways in whic
 h artists were developing and exploiting networks of wealthy patrons and
  producing works which engaged with changing and often controversial eco
 nomic discourse. Please contact&nbsp\;session organizers Jill Harrison a
 nd Vicky Ley&nbsp\;for information.
