  The dynasty of architects and artists in the provinces (19th-20th centuries)

  Between heritage, transmission and the family of creators

  Cette journée d’étude appréhende les processus de création par le prisme de la dynastie. Autorisant l’investigation des logiques à l’œuvre tant dans leur dimension intime et privée que normatives ou fondatrices, la dynastie en tant que suite ou ensemble de personnes issues d’une même famille et occupant les mêmes fonctions, exerçant les mêmes activités ou diffusant les mêmes idées, apparait généralement peu abordée à l’exception des artistes de renom installés le plus souvent dans les capitales européennes. Ce constat constitue une entrée offrant la possibilité de déplacer le regard sur des acteurs et dynamiques encore méconnus, peu identifiés jusqu’alors et parfois même considérés à la marge.

  Studying medieval buildings (1850-1950)

  Actors, stakes and methods

  The history of medieval architecture was written, from the mid-19^th century, by men whose training, career and objectives were variable. In fact, they each developed their methods of analysis and their reading grids of medieval buildings, which are at the origin of our practices in art history and archeology. To be interested in these men and their works: this is the purpose of this study day that will allow to implement, at the scale of Western Europe, this epistemological approach of the medieval sciences dedicated to the castral, civil or religious building. Beyond the monuments themselves, which take the place of a major source, correspondences of scientists, archives of learned societies, photographs, old drawings, or the funds of historical monuments, for example, may be used to deal with one or more of the topics presented below.

  Space and place

  Raddar, Revue annuelle de design #2

  The chosen topic for the next issue of RADDAR is the design of interiors and of space, both those located in the private spaces of the home and those within buildings in the public sphere, from museums to airports to shopping malls. While the areas of architecture and products (particularly furniture) have been widely addressed, the interface between them– the interior–has, to date, received very little serious attention. It has been largely left to coffee table books and television programmes to deal with it. However, given its close relationships with so many other design fields, and the important role that it plays in our everyday lives, as well as in the formation of our identities, the opportunity exists to examine interiors from a wide range of perspectives, historical, theoretical and contemporary.

  Publication of a work on the history of the Sorbonne library

  A l’occasion du 250^e anniversaire de son ouverture au public, qui sera célébré en décembre 2020, la bibliothèque interuniversitaire de la Sorbonne (BIS) a le projet d’éditer un ouvrage collectif contribuant à développer et approfondir la connaissance de son histoire. Les éditions de la Sorbonne ont accepté d’en être l’éditeur. La longévité et la complexité institutionnelle de la bibliothèque de même que la richesse des archives qu’elle a rassemblées, ou des archives la concernant conservées dans d’autres institutions, permettent d’appréhender son histoire sous des angles multiples, certains classiques, d’autres plus novateurs. Les contributions -sous forme d'articles longs ou de focus plus ramassés- pourront concerner des axes thématiques identifiés par le comité scientifique (les problématiques liées aux bâtiments, aux collections, aux personnels, aux publics, à la politique culturelle, aux aspects institutionnels et aux politiques de réseaux, aux conséquences d'évènements historiques sur la bibliothèque...) ou encore explorer des thématiques non envisagées. L'ouvrage comportera en outre une partie prosopographique : la rédaction de notices est aussi concerné par le présent appel.

  In the shadow of the masters: "secondary" artists in peinture, sculpture and architecture (12th-19th century)

  The essential locus of the workshop has to be enquired into. How is a workshop organized? Which role is given to each of its members? From preparing colours to realising some parts of the painting, from building a mould to pouring liquid bronze into this casting mould, or from drawing a project to managing a work site, which evolution and which autonomy can students benefit from regarding their masters? Vasari has revealed a progressive vision of Art History, which still prevails in the discipline: students are inevitably ending up overstepping their master (Michelangelo and Ghirlandaio) or outshining their father (Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Pietro Bernini in the 17^th century). But what about those who were not taken on and those who remained unskilled workers in their lifetime? Was their role really secondary? The ways and means of these artists’ dependence and emancipation regarding their masters, their model, or their technique has to be addressed.

  Arquitetos de Lisboa

  Anos 20 do século XIX – Anos 50 do século XX

  A Arquitetura constitui uma das atividades mais definidora e determinante da história e identidade de uma cidade. Esta realidade é particularmente evidente em Lisboa, no século XIX e na primeira metade do século XX, que apresentam uma extraordinária variedade de estilos arquitetónicos, justificando a ampla divulgação dos projetos, edifícios e de alguns dos arquitetos que a marcam de forma mais significativa.
