  The unfinished in the arts

  Le monde des arts  s’offre  au regard,  peut-être beaucoup plus aujourd’hui  que par le passé,  comme une scène bigarrée où tous les possibles concourent  à l’expression du monde, une expression subjective engageant un je, singulier ou pluriel, mais revendiquée comme telle, et quelle qu’elle soit : directe, donnée au figuré, sous enveloppe métaphorique, hybride, protéique ou … carrément inachevée. Le « non finito » dans l’art, s’il avait eu du temps, de Michel Ange, un aspect anecdotique,  achève aujourd’hui de constituer une véritable mouvance  tant dans les galeries d’art, les fabriques du livre, le septième art,  les arts dramatiques  avec des appellations souvent confondantes, devenues presque consacrées :  esquisse, story board,  rushes,  work in process, mise en  bouche, mise en espace, première (en parlant de théâtre), œuvre en devenir, etc...

  Multi-ethnic cities in the Mediterranean world

  History, culture, heritage

  This meeting aims to foster a discussion about the continuities and disruptions which have conditioned the multi-ethnic dimension of Mediterranean cities. We would like to focus on the specificities of places and time in our millennial history that have produced both tangible and intangible cultural heritage. We would like to broaden the traditional horizons of our disciplines under the issues of our times, questioning the role of historical research and the forms of scientific communication nowadays, when old practices seem more challenged than ever by the overwhelming expansion of new technologies.

  Tools, actors and practices of port city economies in Mediterranean and Atlantic Europe, 17th century to the present day

  Comment les acteurs des économies portuaires maritimes s’organisent-ils individuellement et collectivement pour mener leurs activités ? Comment se gèrent localement les crises et les dynamiques du commerce international ? Quelles sont les pratiques concrètes qui déterminent les réussites et les échecs d’une place ? Les économies portuaires maritimes ont elles une capacité à se transformer plus facilement, plus rapidement ou plus radicalement que les autres ? Toutes ces questions sont autant de chantiers qui demandent à être travaillés et ce colloque entend apporter des éléments de réponse en focalisant l’attention sur un domaine particulier, celui des outils utilisés par les acteurs de l’économie dans les villes portuaires maritimes de l’Europe méditerranéenne et atlantique depuis le XVII^e siècle jusqu’à nos jours.

  Water Management in the Mediterranean during the 1st Millennium BC

  IIIe symposium international HYDRΩMED

  The aim of the meeting is to compare the different modes of adaptation of the Ancient Mediterranean populations to the environmental resources, especially their hydric resources. In a climate marked by unequal distribution of water, the ancient societies, whether Phoenician-Punic, Greek or Etruscan, responded in different ways to the various situations, let alone the hydric crises which may have affected them. The meeting will associate systemic theoretical reflections as well as case studies on ancient sites, to outline the mutations and the permanencies, the possible technological transfers from one society to another. Here, as in other fields of human activity, we shall query the existence of an ancient Mediterranean koine around the knowledge and the technical practices, around the cultural and cultural traditions. The chronology considered runs from the 8^th to the 1^st century BC, i.e. before the diffusion of the Roman models and techniques.

  Ambiance as a key issue in the contemporary Mediterranean public space

  International Conference, International Ambiances Network

  Taking Tunisia — a tiny yet dense country — as a case study, this international conference addresses the possibility of sharing contemporary public spaces in the Mediterranean. It addresses the role played by architecture and urban forms in the sharing process itself and also invites to think of future forms and ambiences in a context of hyper-plurality in which the notion of neighborhood is put into question and the notion of space marking is more than ever re-explored.
