Conference: Travelling Back: reframing a 19th-century expedition from Munich to Brazil

On February 9, 2024, a one-day conference was held at the Central Institute for Art History in Munich to mark the opening of the exhibition Travelling Back. The conference explored various representations and interpretations of the Brazil expedition from 1817 to 1820.

Travelling Back was an exhibition that critically examined the narratives and collections brought back from Brazil in the 19th century by the Bavarian scientists Johann Baptist von Spix (1781–1826) and Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius (1794–1868). The exhibition followed their extensive three-year journey through the Brazilian hinterland and the Amazon region.
