Materials carried the meaning of early modern art. Transformed and
crafted from the matter of nature, art objects were the physical
embodiment of both the inherent qualities of materials and the
forces of culture that used, refined and produced them. The study
of materials offers a new approach to this important period in the
history of art, science and culture, linking the close study of
painting, sculpture and architecture to much wider categories of
the everyday and the exotic. Drawing on research and models from
anthropology, material culture and the history of art, scholars in
The matter of art explore topics as diverse as Inka stonework, gold
in panel painting, cork platforms for shoes, and the Christian
Eucharist. -- .
