    En quête de mémoires, une histoire de l’art partagée de la Caraïbe ?

    Revue du Macte

    Cet ouvrage examinera les approches méthodologiques, scientifiques et artistiques dans la valorisation et la gestion de ces collections à la mémoire sensible et fissurée. Il s’agira de montrer comment les chercheurs, les curateurs et les institutions muséales abordent désormais le passé esclavagiste et colonial ainsi que les questions raciales à travers une lecture analytique critique et historicisée des œuvres témoignant parfois de positionnements nationaux contrastés. La constitution et la provenance de ces collections seront interrogées ainsi que leurs fonctions, leurs inscriptions dans les espaces publics, privés, communautaires et familiaux, de même que les territoires de l’histoire, les cultures matérielles et visuelles, les séquences temporelles retenues (pré-esclavage, esclavage, abolition et batailles pour la citoyenneté, post-esclavage). Le rôle de l’exposition, comme espace d’études, d’échanges et de débats scientifiques, sera également questionné. Enfin, la parole sera donnée à des artistes sur leurs propres relations aux collections coloniales entre rejet, appropriation, détournement, déconstruction et reconstruction des formes.

    Video games in Quebec

    Globe - Revue internationale d'études québécoises - the international journal of Quebec studies

    Globe, revue internationale d'études québécoises, sollicite des propositions d'articles en vue de la préparation d'un numéro thématique consacré au jeu vidéo au Québec. Ce numéro thématique s’inscrit dans la foulée des approches plus locales de l’histoire. Car s’il existe des histoires globales du jeu vidéo telles quePhoenix: The Fall & Rise of Videogames (Herman, 1994), The Ultimate History of Video Games (Kent 2001), The Video Game Explosion: A History from PONG to PlayStation and Beyond(Wolf, 2007) etReplay. The History of Video Games (Donova, 2010), celles-ci se concentrent sur « les gros canons », à savoir les productions américaines, japonaises et européennes. À l’exception du chapitre sur le Canada de Dominic Arsenault et Louis-Martin Guay dans l’ouvrage Video Games Around the World (Wolf, 2015) et de quelques articles publiés dans des revues, entre autres sur les jeux indépendants (comme le Vol 7, No 11 publié en 2013 par la revueLoading...de l’Association canadienne d’études vidéoludiques), on a peu écrit sur la création vidéoludique québécoise pourtant fort riche.

    Meetings, Conflicts, Exchanges: Mediterranean Space in the Middle Ages

    Fernand Braudel writes in his The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II: “The Mediterrenean has no unity but that created by the movements of men, the relationships they imply, and the routes they follow” [1972: 276]. The position of the Mediterranean, at the intersection of three continents, has made it a vital location in these movements of men, women and children. These movements continue, sometimes with tragic consequences, to this day. In the Middle Ages, the meeting of peoples and cultures enabled the exchange of ideas, traditions, texts, languages, and things.

    Canada – Quebec – Caribbean: transamerican connections

    Les liens entre la région Caraïbe, la province de Québec et le Canada sont anciens et diversifiés. Tourisme, coopérations scientifiques et techniques, extractions de ressources, migrations sont autant de ponts tracés entre le centre géographique des Amériques et son extrémité septentrionale. Plus récemment, c’est dans les secteurs de la préservation de l’environnement, de la participation aux projets régionaux de développement, des migrations transnationales et de l’étude des mémoires partagées que ces relations transcontinentales opèrent leurs mutations afin de se présenter comme des éléments essentiels à la compréhension de « notre Amérique ».

    American Art in Dialogue with Africa and the African Diaspora

    Since the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade, Africa has played an important — albeit shifting, contested, and often unseen — role in the history of art of the United States. Conference organizers seek original, innovative scholarship investigating heretofore unexamined aspects of this transatlantic dialogue, from the visual culture of slavery and abolitionism to American modernism; from the Black Arts Movement to the contemporary art world.

    Netherlandish culture of the sixteenth century

    Interdisciplinary conference

    Whereas much attention has been paid to the Burgundian Low Countries of the fifteenth century and the so-called Golden Age of the seventeenth, the culture of the Netherlands in the century in between has long been neglected. Yet the past two decades have witnessed significant research on Netherlandish art, literature, and society of the sixteenth century. The period was famously marked by the twin flashpoints of iconoclasm and revolt, but it witnessed throughout a significant development in artistic, political, and literary culture. This interdisciplinary conference invites papers on topics related to the Netherlandish Culture of the Sixteenth Century.

    The divine painter figure. Demiurgical portrait and self-portrait.

    La question de l’autoportrait à la Renaissance n’a pas ou peu fait l’enjeu d’études approfondies dans la perspective de son scénario de production, telle que l’entendrait Victor Stoichita. En impliquant l’idée d’un montage visuel savant établi par l’artiste, le scénario de production tient un discours qui lui est propre sur la peinture et sur la figure de l’artiste. Dans le contexte du nouveau statut de la peinture au Quattrocento comme art libéral, il serait intéressant de se demander comment le peintre met en scène picturalement sa propre nature de créateur. Qu’en est-il du peintre qui se regarde peindre, de celui qui joue de l’usurpation et du camouflage d’identité et se peint sous les traits de saint Luc ou d’autres personnages sacrés? Au sein de l’autoportrait, qu’en est-il de l’emphase placée sur un motif corporel, la main du peintre, laquelle renvoie inexorablement à la littérature artistique de l’époque et au lien indissociable entre concetto et componimento inculto, le dessin et l’esquisse informe ?
