Kristine Tanton is an Associate Professor specializing in Medieval Art History, focusing on sculpture and architecture from the Middle Ages in France. Her research centers on two primary areas: the dynamic relationship between sculpture, epigraphy, architecture, and ritual activity during the Middle Ages, as well as the material processes involved in medieval art and architecture, particularly through 3D reconstructions of medieval monuments. Tanton employs new media and information technology in combination with traditional research methods to conduct qualitative and quantitative analyses. This approach allows her to reevaluate long-held assumptions regarding canonical sites, such as the cloister sculpture of Moissac and the architectural sculpture of the abbey church of Vézelay, thus gaining deeper insights into the design and construction methods of medieval architecture.
