Abstract

Que signifie l'attachement que nous avons aux choses ? Ces pages se proposent d'explorer les différents types de relation aux choses en tentant de saisir à travers elles combien elles peuvent être des sources d'aliénation ou d'enchantement. Contrairement aux pensées qui prônent le détachement et le rejet de la matière, la centration sur les choses, dans leur matérialité même, semble le plus sûr moyen de saisir la réalité de soi, dans ses dimensions les plus secrètes. Qu'il s'agisse des objets sacrés, des objets d'art etc. il se cache dans l'attrait qu'ils exercent sur nous quelque chose d'énigmatique, mais qui est sûrement révélateur

Abstract

"This volume assembles leading Near Eastern art historians, archaeologists, and philologists to examine and apply critical contemporary approaches to the arts and artifacts of the ancient Near East. The contributions in the volume, which include a comprehensive first chapter by the editor and twelve paired chapters (each of which explores a key theme of the volume through a specific case study), are divided into six sections: Representation, Context, Complexity, Materiality, Space, and Time / Afterlives. A number of sub-themes and questions also thread through the volume as a whole: how might art historical, archaeological, anthropological, and philological approaches to the Near East complement and inform each other? How do word and image relate? And how might the field of Near Eastern studies not only adapt and apply approaches developed in other fields but also contribute to critical contemporary discourses? The volume is unified both by the themes that thread through it and by the comprehensive first chapter in the volume, which explores the status of Near Eastern arts and artifacts as simultaneously non-Western and ancient and as neither of these, and which provides a larger theoretical framework for issues addressed in the volume as a whole"--

Abstract

In the last few years various disciplines have made early modern objects from different geographic areas the subject of their research, which has initiated a renaissance of materiality research. The social, cultural as well as the knowledge dimension of things have gained greater attention. Following the trajectories of certain objects, their ability to create connections and the transfer the knowledge initiated by them has widened our understanding of the productivity of things. In a transcultural move, objects have the power to create new perceptions, practices and concepts that affect the cultural self-understanding of a society. This volume wants to contribute to the history of material culture in a transcultural perspective. In tracing the physical and cultural trajectories of objects it will add to the greater project of a global history. In various ways, the contributions pursue five perspectives: first, travelling objects in transcultural interaction between Europe and Asia, Africa or the Americas; second, the cultural transformation of objects themselves during their travel; third, objects created in transcultural collaboration; fourth, knowledge-making based on widely travelled objects, and fifth, the perspective of material geography. The contributions deal with commodities of daily use, luxury articles, religious objects and written documents.

Abstract

La question de la reproduction technique obsède la modernité. Mais, en vérité, elle relance une question plus ancienne et mal aimée : celle de la répétition. Simuler, copier, doubler, redire... On doit encore affirmer l'intérêt de tels gestes, mais aussi leur diversité. Plus que jamais, on voit proliférer aujourd'hui non seulement les reprises et les réappropriations dans tout art et tout média, mais aussi les reformatages et les retransmissions, les relocalisations et les réexpositions. Les arts -- à l'ère de leur médiatisation exponentielle -- et les médias -- à l'ère de la possibilité de création diffuse -- semblent devenir un vaste chantier d'archivage et de partage, de transformations et de réactualisations. Approché sous différents angles, le "re-" peut ainsi révéler ses multiples facettes--Back cover.

Abstract

Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen is het eerste geheel publiek toegankelijke kunstdepot ter wereld. Het depot, ontworpen door MVRDV, staat naast Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in het Museumpark in Rotterdam. Bezoekers zien het resultaat van ruim 170 jaar verzamelen: meer dan 151.000 objecten beeldende kunst en vormgeving zijn ondergebracht in veertien depotruimtes en gerangschikt op materiaal, formaat, en soms op chronologie of geografie. Naast de objecten zijn alle werkzaamheden die komen kijken bij het beheer en behoud van een collectie te zien. In deze publicatie staan de realisatie van dit unieke, nieuwe type museumgebouw en de collectie van Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen centraal.Dit boek neemt u mee langs alle fasen van de totstandkoming, van de eerste wilde ideeën tot het laatste ingehuisde kunstwerk. De publicatie is als een reis door het gebouw en biedt op elke verdieping een blik in de depotcompartimenten. De essays gaan in op de groeiende collectie en de bewaaromstandigheden gedurende de afgelopen 172 jaar en het ontwerp- en bouwproces van het depot. Ook spraken we met de betrokken vormgevers en kunstenaars over hun bijdragen aan het gebouw.

Abstract

Que nous disent les textiles, sculptures, parures, masques, amulettes,instruments de musique, encensoirs ou missels de nos musées? Comment percevoiraujourd'hui les usages et la densité de vie dont ces objets, déracinés de leurcontexte d’origine et magnifiés dans des dispositifs muséographiques élaborés,sont porteurs? Passant d’objets cultuels à objets culturels, tous ont pourtanten commun d’avoir participé à un moment de leur histoire à une pratiquerituelle accompagnée de croyances, de gestes, de paroles, de sons, d’odeurs.Toutes ces composantes s’inscrivent dans un ensemble d’actions qui donnentsens aux objets, au sein d’un espace et d’un temps déterminés, dans unesociété particulière.Art & Rite dévoile la beauté et l’étrangeté de ces objets témoins de lacréativité rituelle et artistique de l’homme. Nouant un dialogue entrecultures, ces objets content l’histoire des pratiques rituelles de l’humanité.Mais l’ouvrage interroge aussi la perte de sens qu’engendre leur «embaumement»dans un musée, et observe dès lors un nouveau phénomène de ritualisation ou de«re-sacralisation» des objets à travers leur recontextualisation en milieumuséal.Ce catalogue, coordonné par Caroline Heering et Anne-Marie Vuillemenot,commissaires de l’exposition Art & Rite. Le pouvoir des objets, publie pluslargement aussi le résultat des travaux interdisciplinaires menés dans lecadre du projet: «Enseignement et recherche au coeur du Musée-laboratoire»(Louvain 2020 – UCLouvain).
