Deadline for paper proposals: 25 February 2014
Panel Description:
As the chaotic canvases of cities are being stretched over a framework of identity, its further exploration seems more than appropriate. Amidst the incredibly rapid urban growth crowding more than half of the world population in towns and cities, the questions are only going to keep multiplying. How are city identities made and re-made, used and abused, imagined . . . → En lire plus

Workshop within the framework of the « Ethics and Architecture » project at the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz – Max-Planck-Institute (4–5 December 2014)
From hypertrophic construction projects such as the Tower of Babel or building speculations and megalomaniacal utopias of the Baroque to hyper-architectures and hyper-realities of the present – that wide is the range of undertakings that raise the issue of the value of « overvalue » and the criteria by which it is measured.

 Tracing the Heroic through Gender. 1650 – 1750 – 1850
An Interdisciplinary Conference of the Collaborative Research Center 948 “Heroes – Heroizations – Heroisms,” February 26 – 28, 2015
Call for Papers
In most societies the heroic is in many ways gendered. When considering the heroic, attributes of masculinity might first come to mind. Yet, from a historical perspective it becomes apparent that heroizations often also have feminine connotations. The social and cultural production of the heroic cannot be analyzed exclusively in terms of masculinity (and masculinity-studies), nor can we regard women or femininity simply as exceptions in this field. Rather, the relational character of . . . → En lire plus

Deadline: 15 April, 2014
Among the increasingly monarchic arena of Early Modern Europe, the powerful Italian cities of Genoa, Rome, and Venice are exceptional. Genoa and Venice, the largest remaining republics in Italy, predominated the financial, mercantile, and military spheres of the Mediterranean. Rome’s religious authority and historical cachet, along with its sizable territory, were the foundations of its leading position. All three of these cities stand out for their oligarchic power structures; while Genoa and Venice were . . . → En lire plus

The Sculpture of the Écorché
Écorché represent the underlying musculature of the human figure, modelled in wax, carved in wood or cast in plaster or bronze for the purpose of anatomical instruction. This one-day conference takes the écorché as its subject, reconsidering the many ways in which it has been understood in relation to sculpture from the sixteenth century to the present day. We are interested in how the écorché has been variously seen and employed:as a teaching tool and as a model for the education of sculptorsas a scientific, three-dimensional demonstration modelin relation to the idealised forms of classical . . . → En lire plus

Houses as Museums/Museums as Houses
The relationship between museums and domestic spaces is a long and complex one. Museums were born in the houses of collectors, while the reconstruction of the house or domestic room – of ‘home’, effectively – continues to be an influential if controversial model for museum display. On the other hand, museums have at times invested heavily in the idea of their spaces as public, scientific and definitively non-domestic. The line between house and museum is therefore also one between public and private, scientific and domestic; and house-museums/museum-houses have acted both to confirm, to alter, . . . → En lire plus

We are looking for two papers to complete a panel on:
‘Apocryphal and Apostolic Modernism. Forgotten connections between religion and architecture, 1945-1970’.
Panel description:
This panel seeks to discuss the connection between religious and philosophical concepts and the theoretical discourse on architectural modernism from the period 1945-1970. The panel is structured around two different questions that, to a certain extent, mirror each other. The first one is: in what way has religious thinking, of Catholic origin, influenced the theoretical discourse on architectural modernism? Here, the panel seeks papers . . . → En lire plus

“Space is a practiced place.”
Following up on Michel de Certeau, the summer school looks at the multi-layered quality of space, and discusses its theoretical and practical implications. Analyzing the anachronistic and multi-directional relations among action, object and time, we aim to define concepts of space, and to understand their medium-specific significance in a media history of arts by means of looking at exhibition spaces, interiors, and international magazine culture.

 Cette journée d’étude (vendredi 23 mai 2014, INHA, Paris) interrogera les rapports entretenus par les artistes italiens avec le fascisme pendant et après le Ventennio. La première moitié de la journée sera consacrée aux artistes italiens qui résident en Italie ou à l’étranger pendant la dictature. On se penchera sur :
La complexité du rapport entretenu par les artistes avec le régime fasciste de sa création à sa chute (soutien, art de propagande, retrait de la vie artistique, résistance, exil). Il s’agira d’étudier comment, à travers des parcours singuliers, les artistes se sont confrontés à la montée et à l’installation du fascisme.

International Conference. Zurich, October 9-11 2014
Organizers: Prof. Dr. David Ganz (University of Zurich) Prof. Dr. Barbara Schellewald (University of Basel)
In a traditional perspective, book religions are seen as agents of logocentrism, establishing a sharp dichotomy between scripture and aesthetics, religion and art. This judgment was based primarily on dogmatic assumptions and posterior idealizations, however. In the light of their material, performative and artistic practice, religions of the book show a surprisingly strong tendency to evolve their own »aesthetics of inlibration«. Especially in pretypographic cultures, »clothing« sacred texts with precious materials and ornate forms was a powerful instrument for creating a close . . . → En lire plus

This conference will explore the ways in which artists and patrons in Britain devised and introduced new or distinctive imagery, styles and techniques, as well as novel approaches to bringing different media together. It is concerned with the mechanisms of innovation, with inventive and imaginative processes, and with the relations between conventions and individual expression. The conversation will therefore also address the very notions of sameness and difference in medieval art and architecture, and how these may be evaluated and explained . . . → En lire plus

« Have Art, Will Travel: Mobility and Dislocation in the Early Modern World »
In recent years, a global turn in art history has dissembled the cartographic boundaries that formerly defined the field, opening the discipline to a more nuanced understanding of transregional exchange. As such, this methodological approach has moved us toward a new “geography of art,” to borrow Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann’s term, and emphasizes the theme of mobility in what has become an increasingly globalized discourse of early modernism.

 La guerre civile anglaise constitue aujourd’hui, d’un côté comme de l’autre de la Manche, un épisode bien oublié de l’histoire britannique. Il n’en a pourtant pas toujours été ainsi : au XIXe siècle, la Grande Rébellion était au contraire érigée en référence, tant par ceux qui tentaient de penser les soubresauts politiques qui secouaient alors l’Europe que par de nombreux écrivains et artistes, qui y trouvaient une inépuisable source d’inspiration. L’expression « Révolution anglaise », qui fait écho à « Révolution française », a été forgée par François Guizot pour désigner la période qui couvre les années 1640-1660.
