Bio/Research
Carolina Mangone specializes in southern Renaissance and Baroque art. She is currently completing a book manuscript that examines how Gianlorenzo Bernini, the “Michelangelo of his age,” perpetuated his predecessor’s achievement in an epoch as deeply ambivalent about Michelangelo’s artistic exemplarity as it was wholly obsessed with his prestige and celebrity. By studying Bernini’s lifelong and multidisciplinary dialogue with Michelangelo’s art, practice and persona, this first monographic study of the subject sheds new light on the multivalent and contradictory ways Bernini and his biographers constructed the modernity of their era through and against Michelangelo.
