Resumen de Prophets, canons, and promising monsters

Michael Camille

  • Part of a symposium providing a range of critical perspectives on rethinking the art historical canon. The writer reflects on the meaning of canonicity in art history, with reference to the Souillac Isaiah and his own efforts to create a canon of monsters for a graduate course entitled “Monstrosity in Medieval Art.” Among the topics he discusses are the relation between canon formation and the technology of the reproduction of artworks, an exceptional work's relation to its historical circumstances, the importance of corporeality for art history, and contrasts between the monster and the canon in art.
