Colloque : « Alphonse Legros de la France à l’Angleterre /Alphonse Legros in France and Britain » (Dijon, 4-5 mai 2017)

Né à Dijon en 1837, Alphonse Legros aurait fréquenté l’École des Beaux-Arts de sa ville natale avant de gagner Paris puis Londres où il s’installe en 1863. En 1876, il est nommé professeur à la Slade, où il introduit l’enseignement de la gravure et de la sculpture. Membre fondateur en 1880 de la Society of Painters-Etchers, dont l’influence sur le renouveau de la gravure et de l’art du livre illustré est notable, Legros est également un médailliste reconnu, jouant un rôle important dans le renouveau de cet art. Lorsqu’il meurt en 1911, il est un citoyen britannique auquel la Tate Gallery rendra hommage par une très grande rétrospective.

The British Museum and The Paul Mellon Centre, October 30 – November 1, 2014 Deadline-CFP: 25 mars 2014

bmInvention and Imagination in British Art and Architecture, 600-1500

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

Beyond boundaries. Artists and art critics from Central and Eastern Europe in the West.

Souscription Monographie Arthena sur Loutherbourg

Philippe-Jacques de Loutherbourg (Strasbourg, 1740 – Londres, 1812), de Olivier Lefeuvre, préface de David Bindman

A cheval sur deux siècles, le XVIIIe et le XIXe, entre deux pays aux traditions artistiques très différentes, la France et l’Angleterre, le peintre d’origine strasbourgeoise Philippe-Jacques de Loutherbourg (1740-1812) fut un artiste reconnu et célébré par ses contemporains. Il est aujourd’hui oublié en dépit des pages enthousiastes de Diderot sur ses oeuvres exposées au Salon. L’artiste et son œuvre ont longtemps souffert de la réputation sulfureuse de l’homme. Irascible et violent, vénal, attiré par les sphères les plus obscures de la religion, adepte de l’alchimie, en quête de la pierre philosophale. Loutherbourg est . . . → En lire plus

Appel à communication : « Présentations et représentations du Royaume-Uni dans les expositions internationales, de 1851 à nos jours »

Les expositions internationales font l’objet de nombreuses recherches dans des disciplines très variées. Ce colloque se propose d’offrir une plate-forme pour favoriser échanges et discussions entre chercheurs (doctorants, post-docs, confirmés) dont le travail s’appuie sur des éléments à la fois de civilisation britannique et de l’histoire des expositions internationales. Le champ d’étude de cet appel se veut le plus accueillant possible, en s’ouvrant à une multiplicité de corpus et d’approches disciplinaires : histoires de l’art, de l’architecture, du design, du graphisme, de la culture visuelle, du genre, sociale, régionales. Etant donné la localisation du colloque, les expositions internationales de l’aire méditerranéenne sont d’un intérêt particulier (telles que Barcelone 1888, Turin 1902, Milan 1906, Séville 1929-30, Séville 1992, Lisbonne . . . → En lire plus
