Conference recap: Atelier 17 at 100
On September 4 and September 9, Christina Weyl (PhD, Independent Scholar) and James Chadwick (PhD Candidate, University of Amsterdam) hosted a private online workshop which explored new and previously unknown dimensions of Atelier 17’s history, legacy, and affiliated artists. Thank you to all the speakers! Both days offered engaging connections between the papers.
While this conference was not open to the public, The Atelier 17 Project hopes some of the papers might form the basis of a publication planned for 2027 to honor Atelier 17’s centennial.
