In the art of painting the rendering of space has always been considered of great importance, and perspective, shading and foreshortening have been widely studied. The rendering of materials is quite another matter. It was equally deemed essential for the art
painting in the past, but it has received little scholarly or scientific attention until now. <o:p class=""></o:p></div>

November last year a symposium was organised, The Skin of Things, devoted both to art historical and to perceptual aspects of the rendering of materials. <span class="" style="font-size: 12pt;">The symposium was exciting, with high quality contributions by
art historians, vision scientists and computer scientist.</span></div>

A special edition of the peer reviewed journal Art and Perception has been planned for contributions on the subject of the symposium: the depiction and/or perception of material properties. The volume will be edited by Claus-Christian Carbon and Robert Pepperell,
while Maarten Wijntjes and Jeroen Stumpel, will be added as guest editors for this issue.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

This call for contributions is directed at all participants of our symposium, but other researchers are also very welcome to submit papers, provided these will clearly fit within the general topic.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">
The organizers are thinking of papers for instance on 17th century theories regarding the depiction and perception of materials; on the aesthetics of surface materials in various art periods; on computer rendering of surfaces; on the perception of gloss and
highlights in nature and art; or, say, a topic like the biology of food perception in relation to the production of images.
