The international two-day workshop for PhD students, post-docs and early career researchers focuses on  the Renaissance as the key to the transformation of European art and society on the threshold of modern times. The normative approach often left aside contemporary regionalisms or local appropriations living apart from the main European currents. The program is composed from the lectures with discussion (11th June) and guided tours (12th June): architecture tour in Prague and commented tour with the curator and author of the exhibition “From Michelangelo to Callot: The Art of Mannerist Printmaking” in the National Gallery Prague.
