The Cinema of Democracy – Event and Reinvention of the Mass

“JSTA – Journal of Science and Technology of the Arts” (Universidade Católica Portuguesa)

Departing from approaches that reduce cinema to the construction of identifiable political subjects, that is, to a representational structure, this proposal instead foregrounds cinema as an index of the “post-foundational” character of the demos of democracy, whose manifestation never converges into a totalising figure, remaining beyond any form of political capture.

Festivals de cinéma et cinémas du Moyen-Orient

Revue « Regards »

Depuis près d’un siècle, les festivals internationaux de cinéma occupent une place déterminante dans la circulation mondiale des cinémas du Moyen-Orient. Les imbrications entre les festivals et le cinéma de la région remontent au moins à 1946, année où le film égyptien Dunia (réal. Mohammad Karim, 1946) fut projeté lors de la première édition complète du Festival de Cannes. Depuis, les films issus du monde arabe, d’Iran et de Turquie se sont imposés comme des piliers du circuit festivalier, présentés en avant-première et projetés dans les cinq grands festivals (Berlin, Cannes, Sundance, Toronto et Venise), ainsi que dans des manifestations de moindre envergure à travers le monde.

Ageing on Contemporary European Screens: Dialogues Between Film Studies and Cultural Gerontology

Journal “Cinéma & Cie”, n°48

What transnational narrative patterns, thematic or iconographic motifs can be identified in European films that portray ageing and age-related subjects ? What role, if any, is played in this by the ‘silvering of stardom’ and ‘the silvering of audiences’ across the European region ? How can these representations be viewed in light of the specific industrial and institutional dynamics that characterise film production in Europe, including supranational funding schemes and co-production agreements ? We will prioritize contributions that focus on films released after 2010 and incorporate transnational or comparative approaches between European countries.

Artworks and the meaningful connections among their parts

As an increasing number of studies are demonstrating with growing clarity, the analysis of certain aspects - or more precisely, components - of paintings through the lens of their materiality can reveal crucial insights into the artwork itself. These include not only the materials in the strict sense, such as canvas, wood, or nails, but also their composition as a whole, understood as a unified entity, essential to the artwork.

Surviving in and Through Arab World Art and Literature

Body, Memory and Affective Regimes

This volume explores the concept of survivance in contemporary Arab art and literature, focusing on how artistic and literary practices embody, sustain, and transmit memory, emotion, and affective experience. Survivance is approached here not merely as biological or material survival, but as the ongoing persistence, transformation, and circulation of cultural, emotional, and collective traces across generations—through practices that engage bodies, perception, and affective registers.

Mobilising Heritage: Dance, Theatre, and Performance in the Age of (In)Tangibility

European Journal of Theatre and Performance, Vol. 8, No. 1

This turn toward the intangible and communal dimensions of heritage exposed deep tensions between preservation and change, expert authority and bottom-up participation, or institutional policies and bodily practices. These frictions are particularly visible in dance and the performing arts, where heritage is literally embodied, enacted, and reimagined through practice. In what this special issue terms the age of (in)tangibility, the performing arts are recognised as intangible heritage precisely as they are rendered tangible through documentation, digitisation, and policy frameworks, revealing a constitutive tension between embodied, relational knowledge that exists only in practice and the material, institutional forms through which heritage is named, governed, and sustained.

Queer Ecologies Across Socialisms

Queer Ecologies Across State Socialisms brings queer ecology into dialogue with the cultural, institutional, and environmental histories of global state socialist worlds. The conference asks how ideas of “nature” and sexuality were co-produced across bodies, policies, infrastructures, and landscapes - and how queer attachments and ecological critique emerged within socialist modernities. We invite academic and artistic work that rethinks socialist environmental governance beyond catastrophe narratives and traces alternative imaginaries of care, coexistence, and solidarity across more-than-human worlds.

Domesticating Irish nature : past and contemporary approaches and practices

This international colloquium held in Grenoble, combining workshops, roundtables in addition to thematic panels, therefore also invites contributions that explore the representations at stake when the environmental history and prospective future of Ireland are involved. This exploration may be achieved through the intersecting lenses of ecocide, resource exploitation, and ecological resistance or use of nature as a place allowing for an escape from the usual modern globalized ultraliberal capitalistic rat race. We seek interdisciplinary interventions—historical, literary, legal, political, ecological, artistic—that investigate how nature in Ireland has been used, abused, and reclaimed in the face of economic pressures and environmental degradation.

Comics and Machines

Rather than framing this transformation solely as a rupture, the conference seeks to situate it within a longer history of computational rationality— a lineage in which the medium has continuously negotiated the demands of efficiency, scalability, and technical constraint. Our aim is to critically rethink comics not as passive recipients of technological change, but as active computational configurations: media fundamentally entangled with systems of automation, standardization, and information processing.

Lands of the Lost

A Field Guide to Dinosaur Parks Physical, Fictional, and for the Future

We invite submissions for Lands of the Lost: A Field Guide to Dinosaur Parks Physical, Fictional, and for the Future, an edited collection that explores extinct animal parks real, imagined, unrealized, or yet to be. Our goal is to bring together multi-disciplinary perspectives to examine parks across time and space, across fact and fiction. We seek to understand how these projects, which reconstitute and enclose long-extinct life forms, intersect with histories of science, capitalism, imperialism, environmental change, and more.

Beyond the “Degas Dilemma”

Dance-Sculpture Encounters in Francophone Contexts, Past and Present

This special issue of H-France Salon aims to broaden our understanding of the intricate patterns of interconnection and mutual exchange between the arts of dance and sculpture. The “Degas dilemma,” is whereby the (female) dancer passively serves as the (male) sculptor’s “muse.” Rather than reducing the relationship between these arts to mere illustration or representation, interventions should consider the range of ways that each responded to the other, and address how such encounters between artistic media illuminate, inform, or amplify hierarchies of gender, sexuality, race, class, nationality, and culture.

Color in Circulation: Transfers, Transformations, Translations

This conference aims to explore what happens to color when objects, images, and what used to be called style circulate across space and time, across cultures, traditions, and diverse conceptions of color and its symbolism, but also across media. The event serves as a celebratory conclusion to the research project Visual Contagions (Swiss National Fund for research, 2021–2025), conducted at the University of Geneva and focused on the global circulation of images, in collaboration with the Artl@s project.

Haunted Archives of Livingness

Visual Culture and the Politics of Care in the Age of Ecological Entanglement

Titled Haunted Archives of Livingness: Visual Culture and the Politics of Care in the Age of Ecological Entanglement, this year’s edition invites reflections on how contemporary artistic practices engage with ecological, political, and affective entanglements through archival thinking. In light of deepening environmental crises and social inequalities, the archive emerges not only as a site of memory and power but as a porous and generative terrain—an unstable corpus of living matter in constant metamorphosis. The conference aims to examine how artists, researchers, and cultural practitioners mobilize photography and visual media to activate archives that are haunted by histories of violence, yet reanimated through care, resistance, and speculative reimaginings.

Unveiling the void: Erasure, latency, potentiality

7th Postgraduate International Conference of the Departement of Philisophy and Cultural Heritage (PhD Programme in the History of Arts), aims to explore the concept of the relative void and its various manifestations within the visual arts. The Conference invites contributions that explore the relative void as a structural condition of its relational nature, tracing its presence across historical periods — from the medieval and early modern eras to contemporary art — and through diverse visual media. Particular attention will be given to exploring its multiple manifestations, including: erasure, latency and potentiality.

Drawing on the polysemy of trouble in critical theory, this interdisciplinary conference proposes to interrogate the sense of touch as a site of sensory and social subversion, urging us to acknowledge the unresolved discontents of the haptic, to embrace its critical disturbances, and to test its emancipatory potentialities.
