  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.

In order to assess the significance of spatial and temporal dimensions of light, a cross-reading of architectural, archaeological, textual and iconographic sources might be particularly fruitful. The theme of light which, somewhat complex, constitutes a privileged entry point not only to the study of man's relationship to space and the sacred, but also to the development – within or between monotheisms – of influences, exchanges, ruptures, continuities and legacies. The goal of the conference is to explore the theme of light in the East and in the West, during the Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, in a transdisciplinary perspective and within five thematic panels.
