Abstract (en)

Publishes seven essays presented at a March 1987 symposium. Participants were invited to discuss the ways in which the visual arts function as cultural signifiers; that is, ways in which they articulate the identity of corporate entities and mediate exchanges between communities that represent themselves through art. Topics range from antiquity through the 17th c.
