Digital Art History Journal #7: Art History in a Global Network? Deadline: Jan 31, 2021
Zonas de Contacto: Art History in a Global Network?
Digital technologies have catalyzed globalization; yet, the precarity of global networks has become increasingly apparent in the face of pandemics and climate change. International collaboration often reveals deep disparities in access, infrastructure, and institutional resources. The profound (and sometimes disorienting) effect of automated computation on everyday life can only be properly understood within historical frameworks that articulate the interplay between technological mediation and the production of history. But this oft-repeated point begs the question: Who has the privilege to write these histories, and how?

Digital Art History Journal #6: Horizons of Mixed Realities
The International Journal of Digital Art History (DAHJ) responds to cutting edge scholarship concerning extended reality technologies. Today, mixed reality is poised to be just as transformative as analog film and photography, which radically reorganized many domains of modern life (including communication, science, politics, and art). This potential has become increasingly apparent in the face of our current global pandemic, wherein virtual landscapes have begun to serve as critical contact zones for practitioners of social distancing.
Despite an increasing awareness of these technologies (or perhaps, because of it), the role of mixed reality as a tool for art . . . → En lire plus

Chartres est invariablement associée dans l’imaginaire collectif à l’extraordinaire ensemble de verrières des XIIe et XIIIe siècles de sa cathédrale. Mais l’histoire du vitrail chartrain ne se résume pas à la période médiévale, puisque la ville conserve aussi un grand nombre de verrières de la Renaissance. L’étude menée par Françoise Gatouillat et Guy-Michel Leproux sur les verrières des églises Saint-Pierre et Saint-Aignan de Chartres, à l’occasion d’une exposition ouverte en avril 2010 au Centre international du Vitrail, a permis de mettre en lumière un pan important de l’histoire de la peinture sur verre en France, jusqu’alors méconnu. Ces vitraux, en majorité datés entre . . . → En lire plus

Appel à publication : numéro 87 de la revue Histoire de l’art.
Les humanités numériques : de nouveaux récits en histoire de l’art ?
Depuis une dizaine d’années, l’histoire de l’art a peu à peu (mais encore difficilement) adopté les humanités numériques. Or celles ci sont un défi à la discipline qu’elles risquent de profondément renouveler : à la fois dans l’étude des objets traditionnels de l’histoire de l’art (qu’il s’agisse d’images ou de textes), dans la constitution des métadonnées, dans l’exploitation des données et dans les différentes formes de visualisation ou la médiations de celles-ci, notamment avec l’ouverture des données et des contenus culturels . . . → En lire plus
