Curriculum Vitae

Biographical Profile

Guido Rebecchini has studied in Rome (Laurea), Siena (MA) and London (PhD). He has worked at the Università di Siena teaching courses on The History of Collecting and on the Rhetoric of the Images, and taught art history in the study-abroad programs in Florence of the University of Michigan, of New York University and, lately, of Syracuse University (graduate program in Renaissance Art History). At SUF he teaches a course that deals with the various settings in which Italian Renaissance art has been displayed since the times of its production, with a particular focus on the reception of Florentine Renaissance art in the late nineteeth century and early twentieth centuries in American museums and collections.
His interests include artistic patronage and collecting, art theory, history of science, antiquarianism, and urban history. He has published extensively on Mantua and his current book-length project is on the New Rome of Pope Paul III Farnese. His last book, “Un altro Lorenzo” Il cardinale Ippolito de’ Medici tra Firenze e Roma (1511-1535), was published by Marsilio in 2010. He has held several fellowships granted, among others, by the British Academy, Villa I Tatti, and the CASVA, and participated in numerous conferences in Italy, England, France, Belgium, and US.
