During my solid academic training in Japan and Scotland, I studied both Eastern and Western traditions of Oriental Studies, namely East Asian History (Toyoshi) in Kyoto and Islamic Studies in Edinburgh, as well as several traditions of Art History - not only the western-defined canon in the fine art, but also Chinese art and Middle Eastern art. This unusual educational background has taken me to a circuitous academic path, yet this has also given me such an invaluable opportunity to experiment with new ideas to implement new methodologies, in order to shape my own field. With the focus on socio-cultural mobility and materiality, I have been researching the art and material culture of the Persian cultural world after the 7th century or broadly the heritage of itinerant people. My research topics range from the artistic exchanges between the Islamic Middle East and East Asia under the Mongols, the Timurids and beyond, Islamisation / Persianisation in the arts of East Asia, the history of Persian art scholarship and connoisseurship in the early 20th century to the museum and Islamic / Asian art in contemporary times. I am currently running an FWF-sponsored project on the historiography of Persian art 1900-1945, a subject of my next single-authored monograph. A recipient of FWF Lise Meitner Award (M2428-G25) & FWF Elise Richter Award (V-995), named after Vienna-born female scientists who lost their academic positions due to antisemitic measures designed to exclude people of Jewish origin from public life in the 1930s. edit

The Mongol invasion in the thirteenth century marked a new phase in the development of Islamic art. Trans-Eurasian exchanges of goods, people and ideas were encouraged on a large scale under the auspices of the Pax Mongolica. With the fascination of portable objects brought from China and Central Asia, a distinctive, hitherto unknown style - Islamic chinoiserie - was born in the art of Iran. Highly illustrated, Islamic Chinoiserie offers a fascinating glimpse into the artistic interaction between Iran and China under the Mongols. By using rich visual materials from various media of decorative and pictorial arts - textiles, ceramics, metalwork and manuscript painting - the book illustrates the process of adoption and adaptation of Chinese themes in the art of Mongol-ruled Iran in a visually compelling way. The observation of this unique artistic phenomenon serves to promote the understanding of the artistic diversity of Islamic art in the Middle Ages.

Rather than centring on the well-known collections in Western European and North American museums, Collecting Asian Art turns to museum collections of Asian art in Central Europe which emerged from the late 19th century onwards. Highlighting the dimensions of Central European connectedness, this volume explores how these collections evolved and changed under changing cultural and political conditions from the pre-World War I to the post-World War II periods. With a primary focus on collections of East and South Asian art in Vienna, Prague, Berlin, Warsaw, Cracow, Budapest, and Ljubljana, it outlines the transregional connections and networks that gradually developed.
Collecting Asian Art locates Asian art across the twentieth-century in Central Europe via discourse and ideology, and discusses key collections and the way individual collectors built their networks. It thus explores transregional connections that developed through collecting activities and strategies in the prewar, interwar and postwar eras. Contributors also examine the personal connections between a group of Indologists from postwar Prague and modernist Indian artists from the early 1950s to the 1980s and also discuss the systematic archiving of East Asian art collections in Slovenia. A concluding conversation looks at colonisation and decolonisation from a broader perspective by approaching it through recent art historical discussions on the global dimensions of modernism. By defining the region through its external relationships and its entanglements with regions across Asia rather than as a self-contained unit, the contributions in this volume outline how these transregional connections and networks evolved and changed over time, thus highlighting their singularity in comparison to developments in Western Europe. Based on recent research, Collecting Asian Art reveals neglected sources while reinterpreting well-known ones.

This book explores the legacy of Arthur Upham Pope (1881–1969) by tracing the formation of Persian art scholarship and connoisseurship during the twentieth century. Widely considered as a self-made scholar, curator, and entrepreneur, Pope was credited for establishing the basis of what we now categorize broadly as Persian art. His unrivalled professional achievement, together with his personal charisma, influenced the way in which many scholars and collectors worldwide came to understand the art, architecture and material culture of the Persian world. This ultimately resulted in the establishment of the aesthetic criteria for assessing the importance of cultural remains from modern-day Iran. With contributions by Lindsay Allen, Sheila S. Blair, Jonathan M. Bloom, Talinn Grigor, Robert Hillenbrand, Yuka Kadoi, Sumru Belger Krody, Judith A. Lerner, Kimberly Masteller, Cornelia Montgomery, Bernard O’Kane, Keelan Overton, Laura Weinstein, and Donald Whitcomb.

While the impact of the Persian style is undeniably reflected in most aspects of the art and architecture of Islamic Central Asia, this Perso-Central Asian connection was chiefly formed and articulated by the Euro-American movement of collecting and interpreting the art and material culture of the Persian Islamic world in modern times. This had an enormous impact on the formation of scholarship and connoisseurship in Persian art, for instance, with an attempt to define the characteristics of how the Islamic art of Iran and Central Asia should be viewed and displayed at museums, and how these subjects should be researched in academia. This important historical fact, which has attracted scholarly interest only in recent years, should be treated as a serious subject of research, accepting that the abstract image of Persian art was not a pure creation of Persian civilization, but that it can be the manifestation of particular historical times and charismatic individuals. Attention should therefore be given to various factors that resulted in the shaping of "Persian" imagery across the globe, not only in terms of national ideologies, but also within the context of several protagonists, such as scholars, collectors and dealers, as well as of the objects themselves. This volume brings together Islamic Iranian and Central Asian art experts from diverse disciplinary and professional backgrounds, and intends to offer a novel insight into what is collectively known as Persian art. With contributions by Alice Bombardier, Magda Frolow, Larisa Dodkhudoeva, Mircea Dunca, Sabina Dvorakova, Joachim Gierlichs, Katherine Hughes, Yuka Kadoi, Tatjana Kardos, Barbara Karl, Rustam Mukimov, Iván Szántó, Eva Troelenberg and Friederike Voigt.

*Die Schönsten Deutschen Bücher 2020 (The Most Beautiful German Books 2020)*
****
Conceptual artist He Xiangyu has developed projects that take as their subject the goods and products that symbolize the mass production and consumption of the world while evoking the state of contemporary Chinese society. For his Coca-Cola Project, (2009 – 2012), the artist spent over a year simmering down a 127-ton batch of Coca- Cola, and transformed the black, charcoal-like substance that was extracted from this process into an apocalyptic installation. The Lemon Project, started in 2016, turns towards the practice of scientific research to produce an encyclopedic collection of the multitude of meanings and functions of lemons and the color yellow, leading him to immerse himself in the abyss of historical, psychological, medical, and cultural meanings associated with the color yellow. The book in a Japanese binding includes essays on the color yellow. On the inside of the uncut pages are more than 500 of He Xiangyu`s drawings entitled “Research on Yellow.”

Originally woven in Iran during the sixteenth century, one of the most celebrated classical Persian carpets to survive today — the “Sanguszko Carpet”, currently housed at the Miho Museum in Japan — made an extraordinary intercontinental journey. It found its way to Europe during the early modern period and continued its journey across the Atlantic Ocean in the early twentieth century; furthermore, it went on an odyssey across the Pacific Ocean afterwards. In this illustrated talk, Yuka Kadoi makes a fresh analysis of the sociocultural migratory journey of the Sanguszko Carpet, while shedding new light on the mechanisms of cross-continental object sharing and networking across different oceanic spheres.

In the public lectures of the Research Training Group ‘Cultural and Technological Significance of Historic Buildings’ at the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg, selected historical buildings are analysed as bearers of the architectural and technical achievements of their time as well as places of memory for building cultures of the past. In addition to reconstructing important phases of architectural history from antiquity to modern times, the current value of historic buildings is analysed; ‘Why do we place significance on certain historic buildings and not on others?’ and ‘What are the symbols and narratives that play a decisive role in this?’

The engagement with art objects and cultural practices has the capacity to bring about innovative contributions to various other branches of historical scholarship. Such explorations inevitably transcend the disciplinary compartmentalisation of knowledge. Artistic and curatorial research are well capable of also winding down boundaries between academia and the world “out there”. Discussion participants will
draw on experience from their varying research fields to reflect on interdisciplinarity as a knowledge-seeking strategy and the promise of combining it with transnational approaches and collaborative working methods.

We are delighted to announce the launch of our pilot-project, 'Ex libris Strzygowski: how his theory of world arts was formulated', from January 2024, as part of the FWF project (V-995), Persica Centropa (https://persicacentropa.univie.ac.at/). This project intends to make an inventory of the unique off-print collection from the library of the Vienna School professor Josef Strzygowski, currently housed at the University of Vienna Library, but also to make use of this inventory scientifically, so as to trace the formation process of his history of world arts.

Overviewing various modes of public presentation in the past, this international conference seeks to consider in what ways multi-cultural collaborations, innovative exhibitions and collecting strategies can influence academic and public opinions on the future of museums in Central Europe. With the focus on artworks and objects that originally came from Asia and Africa, as well as those deemed to be viewed as non-European, it brings together museum professionals and educational experts to revisit the institutional history of museums and to map out new
directions in the public presentation of such artefacts against the complex historical and current political background of Central Europe. It is widely acknowledged, as much as the academic discourse of art history, museum displays have made a significant impact on our perception and definition of "Art", "Culture" and "Heritage" for the past decades. Recent curatorial strategies demonstrate that museums can and should radically alter traditional modes of viewing through innovative approaches to installation. Yet this debate so far remains largely concerned with institutions located in the cultural capitals of West Europe and North America.

*****
This conference looks at collections of Asian art in and outside Prague from the perspective of the national cultural politics interconnected with individual encounters as well as institutional cultural and diplomatic exchange in Central Europe during the 20th century. The focus will lie on collections of Asian art – hereby used as an umbrella term for East Asian, South-East Asian, South Asian, Central Asian and West Asian art. The location includes Prague and its neighbouring cultural centres in Central Europe, thereby allowing a comparison of the mechanisms of collecting and presentation across time and place in the 20th and 21st centuries.
Rather than viewing the collection as connected to a deterministic account of cultural flows through centers and peripheries, the conference will focus on international and transcontinental networks. It will look closely at the role these networks played in establishing the grounds for collecting, displaying and narrating Asian art in Central European museums, which were used as platforms for cultural diplomacy or propaganda. By revisiting historical entanglements and relational comparisons that connect Asia and Central Europe, the conference’s framework will focus on exhibitions, diplomatic exchange, and discursive aspects on art from Asia in the context of cultural politics.
This conference marks the one-hundredth birthday of Lubor Hájek (1921–2000), founder and director of the Oriental Department (a predecessor of today’s Collection of Asian Art) at the National Gallery Prague in 1951. Hájek was head of the collection until 1986. In memory of Lubor Hájek’s one-hundredth birthday, this conference will set out to revisit the rich collection of Asian art held by the National Gallery Prague and view it in connection with other Central European collections of Asian art. The timing of the conference also coincides with the collection’s move from the Kinsky Palace in the Old Town area of Prague to the Salm Palace at Hradčanské Square. By moving depots and reinstalling the exhibits in their new premises, the history of the collection and the question of museum mediation comes to the fore again.
