Si les questions de reconnaissance et de consécration se situent au cœur de toute analyse des univers artistiques et culturels, c’est que ces derniers sont fondés sur des propriétés spécifiques et pour le moins paradoxales. En effet, relativement à d’autres domaines, les mondes de l’art se caractérisent par l’importance majeure que les professionnels comme les publics accordent à la valeur symbolique des œuvres et des artistes et par le désintéressement affiché ou, du moins, la dénégation assumée concernant la valeur et les profits économiques. Ainsi, au sein de ces univers, la hiérarchisation des artistes et des œuvres s’organise essentiellement selon la logique de l’accumulation du capital symbolique. Or, paradoxalement, l’évaluation de la qualité ou . . . → En lire plus

39th Annual Conference and Bookfair University of Reading 11-13 April 2013 Celestial Bodies and their Orbit in Art The visible planets and the stars have provided important themes and images for artistic practitioners in almost all human cultures.

Awareness of astral influences upon the Earth also supported the allocation of various attributes to individual planets, stars and constellations, as well as their deification. Thus, the celestial bodies, and their representations, have played key roles within a wide range of discursive practices, . . . → En lire plus |
