INTERDISCIPLINARITY by the British School at Rome - Paul Eastwood & Hester Schadee. [EP2]
Interdisciplinarity is a series of dialogues between fellows who have spent a period of residence at the British School at Rome.
EPISODE 2 - Paul Eastwood & Hester Schadee
-
The BSR is one of the many foreign Academies present in Rome, which represent individuals who are emerging in the public sphere and inserting themselves in the city's extraordinary cultural heritage.
Artists and academics live together for several months, establishing not only interpersonal relationships, but often also professional collaborations, thanks to a constant sharing of knowledge that embraces multiple disciplines. In many cases this exchange leads to the discovery of affinities and overlaps among award holders' researches, which relate in new and unexpected ways.
In this series of podcasts, an artist and an academic from the BSR will be in conversation, comparing their research practices and exploring new possible approaches and collaborations.
-
In their BSR Fellowship projects, Paul Eastwood and Hester Schadee were both interested in hegemonic language and the tangible remains of the past (Eastwood: Boustrophedon: A Legacy Left in Stone and Ruin; Schadee: Roman Relics and Renaissance Collectors). They collaborated for a mini-exhibition entitled Memento Monumenta, which explored notions of remembrance through pseudo-facsimile funerary artefacts and inscriptions.
Paul Eastwood is a Wales-based artist who treats art as a form of cultural storytelling. He creates imagined histories and futures to investigate how place and objects can communicate cultural identities. Eastwood was the Creative Wales-BSR Fellow 2020 and was the winner of the inaugural NOVA Art Prize, Wales in 2018.
Hester Schadee is interested in the uses and abuses of the past, including classical reception and the history of scholarship, with a research focus on humanism in the Italian Renaissance. She is Senior Lecturer in European History at the University of Exeter and was BSR Balsdon Fellow in 2020.
