Biography
Livia teaches at the University of Warwick and the Courtauld Institute of Art. She holds an AHRC-funded PhD from the University of York and was a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellow at the University of Warwick. Her research focuses on the intersection of artistic and architectural practice in the early modern period. This is the subject of her first book, Painting Architecture in Early Renaissance Italy, and Beyond the Painter-Architect, her digital exhibition with the Sir John Soane Museum, London. Livia is particularly interested in the relationship between design and craftsmanship, the emergence of the architect as a professional figure, and the production of architectural knowledge. She is currently developing a project on antiquarianism in the early modern Mediterranean, exploring the intersection of architectural theory, cultural identity and exchanges between Europe and the Ottoman empire.
