  Street signage in urban Africa and Israel/Palestine

  Memories, identities, politics

  The exhibition will examine street signage in urban Africa and Israel/Palestine as an outcome of dialectic processes, short and long termed, of spatial production and attached imagery and symbolism. That is, beyond being a signifier of a spatial orientation per se.

  The Renaissance of Origins

  Beginnings, Genesis and Creation in the Art of the VXth and XVIth Centuries

  This conference seeks to introduce a variety of different approaches and interpretations of the concept of “origins” within the visual arts during the Renaissance. However, to consider the question of origins necessitates establishing a distinction between an original beginning such as the creation of the world, an event which initiated historical time, and the symbolic exercises of re-creation that follow it. These phenomena of echo or aemulatio are defined by their manifest desire to capture the primal energy of the original beginning. Such re-creations attempt to reproduce the vitality inherent in the original beginning, and are characterized, above all, by a fundamental desire to reestablish a link to an ideal and initial origin.

  Emotions in French and French-speaking culture: history and literature

  Le but de cette rencontre internationale est de promouvoir une réflexion transversale autour de la question des émotions dans la culture française / francophone, dans une perspective à la fois historique et littéraire, toutes périodes confondues. A l’instar de la diversité politique et culturelle au sein de la francophonie, on s’interrogera sur les modalités, les tensions, les fluctuations et les stratégies de l’expression des émotions dans la sphère francophone.
