The participants are invited to pr esent ongoing researches more than definite results with a view to stimula ting encounters and thorough discussions with and among their colleagues.

The Colloquium "'Portaits' - Imaging Identity: Artist - Clien t - Beholder" is the second edition of a workshop that took place in 2017 at the Reiss-Engelhorn Museen\, Mannheim\, organised by Dr. Gabriele Pieke . The aim of this workshop is to gather experts in ancient Egyptian art hi story and foster in-depth discussions on various topics related to the stu dy of ancient Egyptian art\, somehow outside the traditional boundaries of archaeological vs. philological studies. The participants are invited to present ongoing researches more than definite results with a view to stimu lating encounters and thorough discussions with and among their colleagues . Moreover\, they are asked to send specifically long abstracts in advance to prepare their colleagues to the discussions\, so that they are already acquainted with the material evidence\, etc.

This second edi tion of the workshop will be held at the University of Basel from 8-10 Jun e 2023. Taking into account the relationships that ancient Egyptian art pi eces—or objects—share with their original commissioner\, creator and b eholder (= the topic of the first edition)\, the discussions will focus on the complex issue of portraits\, from two- and three- dimensional represe ntations (tomb decoration\, temple reliefs\, sculpture\, etc.). In this re gard\, problems related to strategies of self-presentation will be address ed\, questioning notions such as type\, style\, realism vs. idealism\, mim etics vs. semiotics. As the concept of portrait is still often tied to rea listic and naturalistic depictions (cf. Fayum portraits)\, one of the poss ible outcomes of the discussion will be to test how this term can be relev ant to Pharaonic art production as it has long been the source of disagree ment among the scientific community.

In order to provide the stude nts with sufficient background so as to make them able to follow the discu ssions and perceive their scientific challenges\, two preparatory sessions will be held in the Schnitz S01 before the Colloquium on 19 April and 3 M ay 2023.
These two sessions will consist of an introduction to quest ions of typology\, style and self-fashioning in Egyptian art.
