This symposium takes as its subject “form,” that born of and amidst human endeavors. Dimensionality, scale, color, tone, material. Broader definitions of form are also included in the symposium purview, such as syntax and style in literature, carriage and behavior in dance.
Many and diverse things are encompassed in the term “form.” How, when and what sort of person created the form, how was it received, and how has it been handed on. Hints gained through a detailed examination of form’s characteristics, materials, methods and remaining traces have assisted the numerous attempts at the clarification of form. In scholarly disciplines dedicated to physical form, such as archaeology and art history, the process of constructing chronologies based on form itself has largely been completed, and an understanding has been reached of the vicissitudes of form. And yet, such methodologies have their limitations, so today attention has turned to the motives and usage patterns that make up the background of these forms. (Continue)
