Abstract

Moving the chronology a bit, it is possible to trace with these pieces by Miguel Castro Caldas (MCC) a narrative arc of conjugality: the first steps of a couple in the epilogue of The Killers (2011), the marriage proposal in Coal On Canvas (2012), infidelity in the Restoration of Conjugal Society (2010), life with children in Wilderness (2016), again infidelity in If I lived you would die (2016), loneliness (widowhood?) of I don't usually talk to you (2017). Why this interest in the institution of marriage? Perhaps it is precisely because it is such a conventional situation that even subversion (or betrayal) is commonplace: from "boy meets girl" to "happily ever after" or not at all, between getting married and getting tired, this is a tired subject from which all variations have been experienced. [...] Marriage is a narrative formula that MCC uses less to dismantle its ideology than to dispense with the need for a narrative itself-and so use time in another way. MCC's writing practices a certain disrespect for institutions, starting with its own writing.

Abstract

Arrasada Troia, mortos os homens, procede-se à distribuição das mulheres da Casa de Príamo entre os triunfantes chefes gregos. O fundo clássico da tragédia é ligeiramente alterado quer pelos conflitos entre os vencedores, quer por versões inesperadas do destino das mulheres, quer pela presença dos lobos que não entendem os motivos belicistas dos humanos.

Abstract

Frente a una era plagada de imágenes vía satélite, esta obra busca atraer la mirada de un círculo de lectores más amplio sobre las herencias culturales y recursos escénicos alternativos de Asia y África. Las creencias, los ritos y las tradiciones de países aparentemente tan lejanos como Cuba, Brasil, México, Japón, Indonesia, China e India, representan no sólo una rica pluralidad de las manifestaciones artísticas, sino además significa la posibilidad de generar reacciones en cadena en cuanto a encuentros interculturales se refiere.

Abstract

Das Ouevre der international renommierten Künstlerin Ulrike Rosenbach ist facettenreich. Sie arbeitet hauptsächlich mit dem Medium Video, hat während der vergangenen vier Jahrzehnte ihres Schaffens zahlreiche Performances aufgeführt. Bereits Anfang der 1970er Jahre entwickelte sie ihre spezifische Form der Videoperformance. Auch gehören Fotografien und Zeichnungen zum weiterhin wachsenden Werkkonvolut. Die vorliegende Untersuchung zu ihrem künstlerischen Wirken fokussiert auf ikonographische Fragestellungen. Dabei werden besonders die Videound Performancearbeiten der Künstlerin in den Blick genommen, die an der Düsseldorfer Akademie studierte und bei Joseph Beuys Meisterschülerin war. Wenn Ulrike Rosenbach bisher hauptsächlich als feministische Künstlerin rezipiert wurde, so sind ihre frühen Arbeiten sicherlich durch feministische Fragestellungen und Motive bestimmt, doch verändern sich ihre Themen im Folgenden sukzessive. Zunehmend treten allgemeinmenschliche Fragestellungen in den Mittelpunkt ihres Schaffens und ihr Werk ist geprägt durch eine spezifische Bildsprache, die in eine Semantisierung der Materialien mündet. Zu dieser künstlerischen Welt bietet diese Analyse einen fundierten Zugang.

Abstract

Le présent ouvrage apporte une contribution à l’histoire des arts du spectacle à Rome entre l’avènement en 1644 du pape Innocent X, issu de la famille des Pamphilj, et la mort du cardinal mécène Pietro Ottoboni en 1740, qui marqua la fin de l’époque du népotisme. Les innombrables spectacles organisés à l’époque par les familles de la haute aristocratie ont laissé des traces de leur exécution et de leur appréciation par le public dans des archives encore peu exploitées. En analysant, sous l’angle du concept de performance, l’événement spectaculaire dans toutes ses dimensions (mécénat, financement, livrets, partitions, enjeux socio-politiques, collaborations artistiques, exécution singulière ou réitérée, réception par le public, mémorialisation), il devient possible de resituer ces entreprises artistiques dans le cadre d’une histoire sociale et culturelle de l’époque. À partir de l’exploration des archives de plusieurs grandes familles aristocratiques de Rome, des actes notariés et des archives institutionnelles, comme celles des académies, des établissements d’enseignement ou des théâtres, une vingtaine de spécialistes appartenant à des disciplines diverses s’interrogent sur l’existence, à l’époque, d’un modèle d’organisation commun aux différentes familles en matière d’arts du spectacle, un modèle qui est le signe d’une culture collective ainsi que d’un système de normes et de valeurs largement partagé.

Abstract

LE VISAGE ET LE PORTRAIT sont les deux points d’ancrage de la problématique abordée dans cet ouvrage. Ces termes révèlent une certaine classification dans la pensée occidentale, et ils traduisent en même temps leur relative fragilité. Que recouvrent aujourd’hui ces mots et quels contenus cachent-ils ? On découvrira que le portrait ou le visage restent deux régimes de valeurs, et bien qu’ils entretiennent des liens de fraternité, ils ont eu chacun leur propre fortune, parallèle et lointaine, antagoniste parfois, se rejoignant souvent. L’histoire de l’art doit revenir sur ces vocables incertains pour montrer qu’ils touchent de très près la question humaine et par conséquent la tête, la face, la figure, l’apparence, l’intériorité et pourquoi pas, l’identité. Les auteurs ont largement adopté une vision pluridisciplinaire, convoquant l’archéologie antique et médiévale, l’histoire de l’art de l’Antiquité à nos jours, l’anthropologie et une approche des médias variée qui associe sculpture, peinture, numismatique, livre illustré, affiche, architecture, textes, photographie et graphisme.

Abstract

This book brings together essays by an international group of scholars and artists, focusing on live performance inspired by living in exile, or created by exiled artists. Bringing together a range of perspectives to examine the full impact of political, socio-economic or psychological experiences of exile, Performing Exile: Foreign Bodies presents an inclusive mix of established and emerging voices from varied cultural and geographic affiliations. Chapters blend close critical analysis and autoethnography to document and interrogate performances and the political, religious, economic and cultural contexts that inform them. With a foreword by Yana Meerzon, and featuring essays on artists of Mexican, Korean-American, Lebanese-Quebecois, Spanish, Azerbaijani and Canadian Aboriginal origin, to name a few, Performing Exile is truly diverse.

Abstract

Since the show's debut in 2007, Mad Men has invited viewers to immerse themselves in the lush period settings, ruthless Madison Avenue advertising culture, and arresting characters at the center of its 1960s fictional world. Mad Men, Mad World is a comprehensive analysis of this groundbreaking TV series. Scholars from across the humanities consider the AMC drama from a fascinating array of perspectives, including fashion, history, architecture, civil rights, feminism, consumerism, art, cinema, and the serial format, as well as through theoretical frames such as critical race theory, gender, queer theory, global studies, and psychoanalysis. In the introduction, the editors explore the show's popularity; its controversial representations of race, class, and gender; its powerful influence on aesthetics and style; and its unique use of period historicism and advertising as a way of speaking to our neoliberal moment. Mad Men, Mad World also includes an interview with Phil Abraham, an award-winning Mad Men director and cinematographer. Taken together, the essays demonstrate that understanding Mad Men means engaging the show not only as a reflection of the 1960s but also as a commentary on the present day. Contributors.

Abstract

Animating Film Theory provides an enriched understanding of the relationship between two of the most unwieldy and unstable organizing concepts in cinema and media studies: animation and film theory. For the most part, animation has been excluded from the purview of film theory. The contributors to this collection consider the reasons for this marginalization while also bringing attention to key historical contributions across a wide range of animation practices, geographic and linguistic terrains, and historical periods. They delve deep into questions of how animation might best be understood, as well as how it relates to concepts such as the still, the moving image, the frame, animism, and utopia. The contributors take on the kinds of theoretical questions that have remained underexplored because, as Karen Beckman argues, scholars of cinema and media studies have allowed themselves to be constrained by too narrow a sense of what cinema is. This collection reanimates and expands film studies by taking the concept of animation seriously. Contributors. Karen Beckman, Suzanne Buchan, Scott Bukatman, Alan Cholodenko, Yuriko Furuhata, Alexander R. Galloway, Oliver Gaycken, Bishnupriya Ghosh, Tom Gunning, Andrew R. Johnston, Hervé Joubert-Laurencin, Gertrud Koch, Thomas LaMarre, Christopher P. Lehman, Esther Leslie, John MacKay, Mihaela Mihailova, Marc Steinberg, Tess Takahashi
