registration with Sartoria (sartoria.contact@gmail.com). It is possible to attend just one day or a single talk. The event is also available online.

This international symposium – entitled ‘Jewellery: Making Art with Body Matter (20th–21st centuries)’ – is part of the recent surge in research into jewellery and, more broadly, into adornment and fashion. By bringing together PhD students and researchers from a range of disciplines, artists and jewellery professionals, the aim is to shed light on this multifaceted object, which remains under-researched in France. One of the current issues that this scientific event aims to address is the need to establish a global field of research that enables jewellery to be understood as a coherent subject of study. Through the six panel discussions scheduled over these two study days, speakers are invited to examine the common definition of jewellery – as part of the ‘cultures of appearance’ [cultures des apparences] – by approaching it through the lens of the body and its materiality.
