Guest researcher to the Routes project

The Routes project team has been delighted to welcoming Vittoria Di Palma, landscape historian from Columbia University, New York, as a guest researcher to the Routes project in May and June 2010. During Di Palma’s stay, the Routes project team has visited several key collections of Norwegian landscape painting, among others the Royal Palace in Oslo, Oscarshall, Thomas Heftye’s Frognæs (now the residence of the British ambassador to Norway), and Bogstad gård. Di Palma will contribute an essay to the Routes-collection which will be published by Ashgate in 2011.

Routes paper at the Society of Architectural Historians Annual Meeting

Vinje and the making of the modern mountainscape’ at the Annual Meeting of the Society of Architectural Historians in Chicago, 21st-25th April 2010. Due to volcano troubles and cancelled flights, however, she could not get to the conference in person. The paper will instead be delivered by video.
