The Conference, The Legacy of Leonardo da Vinci: International Collaboration, and Global Access,
December 4, 2014
The Conference, The Legacy of Leonardo da Vinci: International Collaboration, and Global Access, will be held in conjunction with the public launching of the project Leonardo da Vinci and His Treatise on Painting, an interactive digital platform dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci's legacy on art and science.
The conference focuses on Leonardo's legacy on the art, science and culture of the sixteenth and seventeenth century. Taking Leonardo's Treatise on Painting as its point of departure, it pays special attention to the relations between theory and practice, to recent critical editions of Leonardo's original manuscripts, and to the diffusion of his Treatise on Painting. In sessions open to the public leading specialists from a wide range of disciplines will examine Leonardo's pictorial practice, his theoretical writing, and his drawings and paintings. In a closed-door meeting a group of selected guests will explore the future of digital projects centered on Leonardo's writings. The conference intends to explore new avenues for interdisciplinary research and collaborative scholarship to give global access to Leonardo's legacy. Visit site

Leonardo da Vinci and Optics - International Conference
May 26, 2011
Organized by Francesca Fiorani and Alessandro Nova
Leonardo regarded optics as foundational to painting. Throughout his life, he observed optical phenomena and recorded them in geometrical diagrams, jotted notes, sketches, drawings, and lengthy passages. He constantly tried to transfer his optical observations from one system of representation (geometrical and optical diagrams) to another (painting and drawing), indeed to ground in optics his 'sfumato', chiaroscuro, aerial perspective, reflected colors, and theory of proportions. Leonardo read carefully ancient and medieval optical treatises, hunting them in the libraries of his patrons: Aristotle, Euclid, Ptolemy, Roger Bacon, John Pecham, Witelo, Biagio Pelacani of Parma, and Alhazen.
