Renaissance Principles and Their Early Modern Receptions

Prague, Jun 11–12, 2024 Deadline: May 10, 2024

The international two-day workshop for PhD students, post-docs and early career researchers focuses on the Renaissance as the key to the transformation of European art and society on the threshold of modern times. The normative approach often left aside contemporary regionalisms or local appropriations living apart from the main European currents.

We are interested in the problem of 1. New research on the arts and architecture of the Renaissance 2. Aspects of the Renaissance in Central Europe: modalities of receptions and appropriations 3. The reception and historiography of the Renaissance in the 18th, 19th and 20 centuries.

Appel à communication : After the Middle Ages: Architecture and Medievalism (Rome, 18-19 Nov 24)

After the Middle Ages: Architecture and Medievalism (Rome, 18-19 Nov 24)

Bibliotheca Hertziana – Max Planck Institute for Art History, Rome, Nov 18–19, 2024 Deadline: Mar 31, 2024

“After the Middle Ages” implies both a temporal horizon, extending from the early modern period to the present day and beyond, and responses to the Middle Ages (medievalism). The conference aims to navigate and shine a spotlight on the historical interactions between these responses and architecture, encompassing attitudes towards the medieval built environment, remnants of the Middle Ages, and practices of reception and revival. Response to the past does not naturally serve as an epistemic point of departure for architectural history. The discipline’s methods lean towards comprehending the pre-existing, often idealised as a coveted “original”, to . . . → En lire plus

Appel à communications : Caricatures et cultures numériques

Caricatures et cultures numériques II : « L’heure est grave » Musée McCord Stewart et l’Université du Québec à Montréal

La caricature jouit d’une notoriété et d’une polyvalence croissantes en tant qu’action satirique de choix dans presque toutes les sociétés contemporaines. Lancinante, violente, drôle, désopilante, impudente, et parfois même sage, la satire visuelle porte aussi le poids de son histoire et des usages qu’en font ces sociétés. Polémique, elle oscille entre le comique et le tragique, participant à la circulation d’actes et de pensées subversives face à l’autorité des gens et des institutions de pouvoir. Elle peut proposer consensus face aux transformations sociales, économiques, politiques, culturelles d’une collectivité. Elle est aussi œuvre artistique : elle joue sur la représentation mimétique virtuose et la pensée critique.

La caricature est à la . . . → En lire plus

Tablinum Fellowships, Stiftung Bibliothek Werner Oechslin and CISA Palladio

Tablinum Fellowships, Stiftung Bibliothek Werner Oechslin and CISA Palladio

Two institutions with different cultural backgrounds but shared fundamental principles and objectives – the Centro internazionale di studi di architettura Andrea Palladio, Vicenza and the Stiftung Bibliothek Werner Oechslin, Einsiedeln – have joined forces to launch the TABLINUM initiative. The aim is to promote greater interest in rigorous research, in particular conducted on historical sources (i.e. the key tool in humanistic research), by offering fellowships. The distinctive feature of the TABLINUM fellowships is that they provide the opportunity to get to know and benefit from both institutions, each with its own specific orientation and strengths. The fellowship is therefore for the purpose of developing a research project in the humanities involving the two institutions, possibly with a stay in both.

L’idée d’art moderne et le concept de nouveauté qui la sous‑tend ont été combattus non seulement de l’extérieur, par les regardeurs (public et critiques), mais aussi de l’intérieur, par les artistes eux‑mêmes, et non des moindres. Car, en définitive, c’est des acteurs historiques de la modernité que proviennent les objections les plus stimulantes. Renoir, Seurat, Denis ou Derain, pour ne retenir . . . → En lire plus
