International Springtime Academies
The International Springtime Academies in the history of art constitute the central meeting of Consortium members and students. It is an annual meeting and brings together a limited number of selected participants -- masters, doctoral, and post-doctoral students -- within a rigorous context of research, exchange, and instruction. The Academy's location rotates to different cities each year.
The purpose of the Academies is not that of a conference but of training. It also reinforces links amongst professors, while fostering collaboration in the teaching, training, and advising of students; in some cases joint collaborations lead to cotutelles.
