Abstract

Qu'est-ce qu'une oeuvre d'art ? Comment l'approcher, la comprendre, l'interpréter ? Qu'en est-il des méthodes historique, génétique, iconographique ? Que faut-il penser des fondateurs de l'esthétique au XXe siècle ? L'auteur, une des dernières grandes figures de l'école de Vienne, propose aux historiens de l'art une méthode d'investigation qui tire parti des différentes théories en présence.

Abstract

Nous sommes capables de fabriquer le passé à la demande, de le façonner autour d'images, d'objets, de reconstitutions, où le passé est, précisément, « rejoué ». Ces pratiques, inspirées par des imaginaires, s'inscrivent dans ce qu'il est possible d'appeler des « cultures de l'histoire », diverses selon les époques. Cet ouvrage les replace dans la longue durée et s'efforce de comprendre leur intensification contemporaine, liée aux transformations d'ensemble des rapports au passé. Les exemples sont pris notamment dans les domaines de l'archéologie, de l'iconographie, des commémorations, des fêtes et spectacles d'histoire.

Abstract

Fully illustrated in colour, here is the first introduction in English to one of Korea's outstanding cultural assets - the banchado ('painting of the order of guests at a royal event') - relating to all those taking part (1800 people) in the eight-day royal procession to Hwaseong (Gyeonggi Province) organized by King Jeongjo in 1795 for the dual purpose of visiting his father's tomb and celebrating his mother's sixtieth birthday. The banchado is a fine example of the meticulous record-keeping of the period (known as uigwe - the subject-matter of this book being known as the Wonhaeng eulmyo jeongni uigwe) and the skills of the court artists at that time. In addition to the banchado illustrations, the Wonhaeng eulmyo jeongni uigwe contains extensive lists of all the participants in the procession, details of the workers and technicians involved, including their duties and wages. It even includes the different foods offered at meal-times, the quantity of ingredients and the costs. The author provides a full analysis of the context, planning, execution and significance of the event.

Abstract

"This book explores the politics of the image in the context of Israeli militarized visual culture. It unpacks the way in which art and visual culture contend, not with the military itself, but with its foundational impact on Israeli identity, culture, and society: its influence on bodily images and national affiliations; its impression on landscape; its authority as a coercive glue that encompasses collective memories; and, most importantly, the acceptance of those numerous militarized aspects as unproblematic parts of civilian life. Analyzing a range of artworks and art-related objects with the help of cutting-edge theory, it touches on various fields, including memory studies, gender studies, political geography and landscape theory, in search of a civic aesthetics that is able to submit a taken-for-granted military excess to the renewed scrutiny of its viewers. What the images do and how they work is of interest in this book, not what they show: this study discusses the complexities of visuality, arguing for art's capacity to expose the scopic regimes that construct its own visibility. Images and artworks are often read either out of context, on purely aesthetic or art-historical ground, or as cultural artefacts whose aesthetics play a minor role in their significance. This book breaks with both traditions as it approaches all art as an active participant in the surrounding visual culture in which it is created and presented. This innovative approach builds on the specific sociological concerns of the chosen cases to allow a new theory of the image to come forth, where the relation between the political and the aesthetic is one of exchange, rather than exclusion."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
