Understanding Nasrid art on the basis of recent research and, particularly, the role played by the Alhambra as a source of inspiration and artistic creation down through the years, is the main theme of the course to be held from 19-23 September as part of the activities organised by the University of Granada Centro Mediterráneo in conjunction with the Patronato de la Alhambra y Generalife (PAG).
The Alhambra: art and artists, the registration period for which is now open, is directed by María del Mar Villafranca, director of PAG, and coordinated by art historian Eva Carreño. Over 5 days, a group of experts will analyse trends such as Orientalism and its subset, Alhambresque, or how artistic media such as photography, cinema and music have contributed to disseminate understanding of the Alhambra.
The course will be held at the Conference Room of the Palace of Carlos V in the Alhambra. It is scheduled over 30 hours and has a fee of €120.
