Sarah is Associate Professor of Early Modern Art History at the University of Utrecht.

Dr. Anne Markham Schulz is a prolific scholar of medieval and Renaissance Italian sculpture.

How do we talk about and understand monuments, art, and public sculpture as cultural and historic objects that speak to us from the past?

As director, Professor Neumann looks forward to broadening the relationships of the Public Humanities with many departments, in particular, with the History of Art and Architecture department.
