<H2 CLASS="MsoNormal">‘Auricular Style: Frames’. </H2>
Dates: 5 &amp; 6 October, 2016. 
Venue: The Wallace Collection (Goodison Lecture Theatre), Hertford House, Manchester Square, London W1U 3BN. A National Museum since 1900, the Wallace Collection contains one of the finest collections of international decorative arts in the world. 
 
This two-day international conference is the first dedicated to the Auricular style, centring on one of its most significant manifestations, the picture frame. The conference aims to stimulate awareness &amp; study of this important but neglected style by bringing together research in fine &amp; decorative art histories. Speakers from Europe, UK &amp; USA will consider the origins &amp; development of the Auricular style in different materials, including silver, wood, stucco, &amp; leather. Papers will explore how other areas of the decorative &amp; applied arts fed into the creation of picture frames. They will examine the influence of prints, drawings, &amp; the style’s dissemination between European centres in Bohemia, Germany, Italy, France, the Netherlands, &amp; Britain. Poster presentations will be exhibited during the conference. Running simultaneously with the conference there will be related displays at Ham House, &amp; Guildhall Art Gallery.
