"Meaning in Materials" is a Mellon-funded object-based

study workshop organized in collaboration between the departments of Conservation and European Decorative

Arts and Sculpture at the Philadelphia Museum of Art,

and the Department of the History of Art at the University

The workshop offers first year graduate students the opportunity to consider aspects of Medieval and

Renaissance sculpture through close examination,

handling and collaborative discussion.
