Abstract

Introduction to Public History: Interpreting the Past, Engaging Audiences is a brief foundational textbook for public history. It is organized around the questions and ethical dilemmas that drive public history in a variety of settings, from local community-based projects to international case studies. This book is designed for use in undergraduate and graduate classrooms with future public historians, teachers, and consumers of history in mind.The authors are practicing public historians who teach history and public history to a mix of undergraduate and graduate students at universities across the United States and in international contexts. This book is based on original research and the authors? first-hand experiences, offering a fresh perspective on the dynamic field of public history based on a decade of consultation with public history educators about what they needed in an introductory textbook. Each chapter introduces a concept or common practice to students, highlighting key terms for student review and for instructor assessment of student learning. The body of each chapter introduces theories, and basic conceptual building blocks intermixed with case studies to illustrate these points. Footnotes credit sources but also serve as breadcrumbs for instructors who might like to assign more in-depth reading for more advanced students or for the purposes of lecture development. Each chapter ends with suggestions for activities that the authors have tried with their own students and suggested readings, books, and websites that can deepen student exposure to the topic.Bron: https://rowman.com/isbn/9781442272224/introduction-to-public-history-interpreting-the-past-engaging-audiences

Abstract

Demystified: The European Ceramic Workcentre as Centre of Excellence' deciphers for the first time the specific and fundamental reasoning for the successes behind this world leader. It describes the complex system of operation that exists throughout the entire organisation, a system that has matured and been refined over the course of the previous four decades. It explains how such an ideal working environment has developed, why this is unique to the EKWC, and why such excellence in practice is difficult to find in other related organisations around the world. Rather than focus attention on the already documented, innumerable results and artefacts of countless collaborations and working partnerships over previous decades, this survey describes with text and a comprehensive image base how it is that such results have been achieved. It explains how the nature of this work is influenced by prevailing circumstances and decision-making, be they of a logistical, directorial or theoretical nature. It is a demystification of previously unidentified interrelationships which explains how the interactive nature of an organisation such as the EKWC impacts on those working within it, and subsequently how it influences a much wider community outside.

Abstract

Groundbreaking new insight into a rich spectrum of early Soviet art and its spaces of display Published on the centenary of the Russian Revolution, this landmark book gathers information from the forefront of current research in early Soviet art, providing a new understanding of where art was presented, who saw it, and how the images incorporated and conveyed Soviet values. More than 350 works are grouped into areas of critical importance for the production, reception, and circulation of early Soviet art: battlegrounds, schools, theaters, the press, storefronts, exhibitions, factories, festivals, and homes. Paintings by El Lissitzky and Liubov Popova are joined by sculptures, costumes and textiles, decorative arts, architectural models, books, magazines, films, and more. Also included are rare and important artifacts, among them a selection of illustrated children?s notes by Joseph Stalin?s daughter, Svetlana Allilueva, as well as reproductions of key exhibition spaces such as the legendary Obmokhu (Constructivist) exhibition in 1921; Aleksandr Rodchenko?s Workers Club in 1925; and a Radio-Orator kiosk for live, projected, and printed propaganda designed by Gustav Klutsis in 1922. Bountifully illustrated, this book offers an unprecedented, cross-disciplinary analysis of two momentous decades of Soviet visual culture.

Abstract

Explorations of the “formering” of the West in contemporary art in the post-communist, postcolonial, posthuman, post-ideological, and posthistorical era. What has become of the so-called West after the Cold War ? Why hasn't the West simply become “former,” as has its supposed counterpart, the “former East” ? In this book, artists, thinkers, and activists explore the repercussions of the political, cultural, and economic events of 1989 on both art and the contemporary. The culmination of an eight-year curatorial research experiment, Former West imagines a world beyond our immediate condition. The writings, visual essays, and conversations in Former West―more than seventy diverse contributions with global scope―unfold a tangled cartography far more complex than the simplistic dichotomy of East vs. West. In fact, the Cold War was a contest not between two ideological blocs but between two variants of Western modernity. It is this conceptual “Westcentrism” that a “formering” of the West seeks to undo. The contributions revisit contemporary debates through the lens of a “former West.” They rethink conceptions of time and space dominating the legacy of the 1989–1990 revolutions in the former East, and critique historical periodization of the contemporary. The contributors map the political economy and social relations of the contemporary, consider the implications of algorithmic cultures and the posthuman condition, and discuss notions of solidarity―the difficulty in constructing a new “we” despite migration, the refugee crisis, and the global class recomposition. Can art institute the contemporary it envisions, and live as if it were possible ?

Abstract

Catalogue de l'exposition Jardins, présentée aux Galeries nationales du Grand Palais, Paris (15 mars - 24 juillet 2017). Une vision unique et nouvelle de l'art des jardins. Le Grand Palais retrace, de la Renaissance à nos jours, six siècles de création autour du jardin. Un jardin est un enclos, une entité autonome, découpée dans un territoire ; il est également miroir du monde et rend compte d'une manière de voir la nature, de la mettre en scène et de la penser. Le catalogue Jardins explore l'histoire et les formes de cette figure symbolique. Ce n'est ni une histoire de l'art des jardins ni un état des lieux qui prétendrait à l'exhaustivité. L'ouvrage se concentre sur les expérimentations menées en Europe - et plus particulièrement en France - de la Renaissance à nos jours, sans s'interdire l'exploration ponctuelle d'autres lieux et périodes.
