French Bronzes: History, Materials and Techniques of Bronze
   Sculpture in France (16th - 18th centuries)

Scope: A three-day international symposium will be held at the Musee
du Louvre and Centre de Recherche et de Restauration des Musees de
France (C2RMF), Paris, France. We are aiming to bring together a
diverse group of specialists--eg. historians, conservation
scientists, curators, and conservator-restorers--to engage in an
inter-disciplinary exchange to promote further research into the
development and cross fertilization of ideas and technology related
to the making of bronzes in France, and by French artists abroad,
from the Renaissance through the 18th century.

Topics: The conference will focus on three inter-related subject
areas:

   The origins and cross-fertilization of ideas and technology
   related to the making of bronzes in France between the
   Renaissance and the 18th century.

   The production of specific sculptors and founders, and of
   individual works of art.

   Current state-of-the-art research methods and their application
   to multi-disciplinary studies including historical and
   archaeological investigations, analytical studies of materials,
   as well as experimental reconstructions of metallurgical
   processes.
