"Des années 1960 à nos jours, nombre d'artistes à l'échelle internationale ont exploré la fabrique de l'objet du quotidien en dialoguant avec un certain design dans le champ élargi de la culture matérielle. Ils interrogent la veine utilitariste des objets afin de la contrer, mais aussi le formatage des normes de goût, pour revisiter les dimensions mémorielle, affective, fétichiste, sociologique, anthropologique, de la culture matérielle. De Claes Oldenburg à Richard Artschwager, de Robert Gober à Jeff Koons, de Wiebke Siem à Rachel Whiteread, de Martin Boyce à Tobias Rehberger, de Franz West à Fabrice Hyber, entre autres, les créations mettent au jour le passage du modernisme au postmodernisme dont il convient désormais de retracer une généalogie critique. Chaque œuvre se veut par ailleurs l'emblème de la circulation des échanges de valeurs culturelles dont on peut observer la transformation au fil du temps. Il en résulte un phénomène de mutation esthétique, politique et historique ouvrant une nouvelle appréhension de l'objet du quotidien, où la liberté de l'expérience devient fondatrice pour réinventer les modes de vie. Les artistes revisitent ces emblèmes et créent peu à peu des objets du don, dont la dimension symbolique engendre une conception des relations sociétales contemporaines porteuses de nouvelles modalités de l'échange."

Located in the heel of the Italian boot, the Salento region was home to a diverse population between the ninth and fifteenth centuries. Inhabitants spoke Latin, Greek, and various vernaculars, and their houses of worship served sizable congregations of Jews as well as Roman-rite and Orthodox Christians. Yet the Salentines of this period laid claim to a definable local identity that transcended linguistic and religious boundaries. The evidence of their collective culture is embedded in the traces they left behind: wall paintings and inscriptions, graffiti, carved ­­tombstone decorations, belt fittings from graves, and other artifacts reveal a wide range of religious, civic, and domestic practices that helped inhabitants construct and maintain personal, group, and regional identities. The Medieval Salento allows the reader to explore the visual and material culture of a people using a database of over three hundred texts and images, indexed by site. Linda Safran draws from art history, archaeology, anthropology, and ethnohistory to reconstruct medieval Salentine customs of naming, language, appearance, and status. She pays particular attention to Jewish and nonelite residents, whose lives in southern Italy have historically received little scholarly attention. This extraordinarily detailed visual analysis reveals how ethnic and religious identities can remain distinct even as they mingle to become a regional culture.
