  The italian fascism through the prism of contemporary arts

  Reinterpretations, montages, deconstructions

   

  In a more or less explicit way, daily news bring to our attention the survival of forms and values which rely on fascist imagery. Thinking about fascism through the prism of contemporary arts means to deal with a term whose significance has to be read at least in a double sense: on one hand, the historical experience of the regime that ruled Italy from 1922 to 1943; on the other hand, by extension, the very form of totalitarian power. Contemporary arts’ gaze seems to work on these two different albeit related topics: the Italian fascism as historical event (faced with all the troubles of its memories), and the fascism as the fundamental process of power’s relationship and rituals.

  The art of battle - visual strategies of the battlefield from the Renaissance to the present day

  Stratégies visuelles de la scène de bataille de la Renaissance à nos jours

  Comment les artistes depuis la Renaissance ont-ils mis en espace ou en séquence temporelle le récit guerrier de manière à susciter une expérience du regard, voire une expérience physique de l’événement chez le spectateur ? De la peinture de la Renaissance au cinéma contemporain, ce colloque entend retracer la mise en images de la bataille selon différents médiums, en étudiant l'ambition politique, voire éthique, de cette immersion visuelle dans l'événement militaire.
