Title: *Humanists versus Relativists. Visions and Revisions of the
Vienna School Methodological Doctrine*

The Vienna School of Art History based art historical research on the
belief in method and its scientific nature. The orthodox
epistemological model of the Vienna School as formulated by Alois
Riegl regarded art history as an exact and non-partial objective
science. Riegl's followers developed and transformed or critically
revised his model. The present paper deals with the process of
transformations and revisions of the
Vienna School orthodox model.

Title:* Towards a Horizontal Art History*

The author proposes a theory of a horizontal art history as both a
critique of the vertical one, understood as hierarchical and Western
oriented scholarly practice, as well as the proposed methodological
approach to rewrite a history of modern art along with the pluralistic
and non-hierarchical model. The model suggested here is based on an
equality of different art historical narratives. Its crucial point is
to negotiate different discourses, not in order to create one
alternative super-structure, but rather to unveil a dynamic process of
exchanging values between them.

DISCUSSION 19.30-20.00/ facilitated by Grzinic and the tutors
