DESCRIPTION:REMIO Guest Lecture by Armen Kazaryan (Deputy Director\, State
  Institute for Art Studies\, Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation
 \, Moscow\, Russia)\n \n\nThe beginning of Seljuq architecture and of a n
 ew revival of Armenian architecture took place on the territory of the Arm
 enian Highlands and Anatolia starting with late 12th century. This marks a
 n entirely new and intense period of interactions between Christian and Is
 lamic traditions of art on these territories.\n\nThe lecture will focus on
  this artistic exchange\, presenting the typology of constructions of Arme
 nians and Seljuqs\, their architectural details and ornamental motives\, a
 s well as the artistic tastes of these two peoples who co-existed on these
  lands\, indicating various intriguing similarities and differences. Havin
 g rather different sources of inspiration\, as well as distinct trajectori
 es of development\, the architecture of Armenians and Seljuqs of the 13th 
 century became akin to each other in several features.\n\nIt is impossible
  to explain this kind of visual entanglement only by the work of common\, 
 in this case Armenian\, masters. More complex cultural processes must have
  been at play. Moreover\, while such interactions are undeniable\, the arc
 hitectural production of Armenians and Seljuqs also preserved specific ima
 gery proper to each traditions. This trend is reflected not only in religi
 ous and memorial architecture\, but also in the caravan-sarais\, that serv
 ed as way-stations on international trade routes. All these issues\, to be
  discussed in the lecture\, have been barely touched in scholarly literatu
 re\, even if they seem to be of prime importance in today's world.\n\nThe 
 lecture series is sponsored by the RUB Research School and CERES.\n
