Collecting impressionism - international digital conference
Colloque international numérique
Le colloque abordera le collectionnisme impressionniste sous un angle jusqu’ici peu exploré : le collectionneur et sa collection en lien avec son époque et son contexte politique, social et économique, et ce à une échelle internationale. Le collectionneur est ancré dans des réseaux d’acteurs, aussi bien privés qu’institutionnels et l'ambition de ce colloque est de contribuer à identifier ces acteurs, à mettre en lumière leurs relations et à les situer dans les mondes de l’art moderne.

Luxembourg and its broader region post First World War
La fin de la première guerre mondiale marque une transition dans les relations politiques, économiques, sociales et culturelles entre le Luxembourg et ses voisins dans ce que nous appelons aujourd’hui la Grande Région. Le centre de gravité politique et économique se déplace de l’Allemagne (de l’ouest) vers la France, tandis que la Belgique tente péniblement de trouver sa place dans ces réorganisations territoriales. Le colloque veut s’intéresser à ce processus de transition, en l’élargissant à une série de thématiques connexes, qui mettent en évidence le caractère international et transfrontalier de ces évolutions.

Francoism, its image and policies of influence in France (1936-1975)
Cette journée d’étude entend interroger la politique d’influence du régime franquiste en France de la guerre civile jusqu’à la fin du régime, en 1975. Il s’agit de s’intéresser à la construction de son image publique destinée à traverser la frontière pyrénéenne et à sa réception sur le sol français. Si les évolutions internes du régime franquiste (guerre civile, premier et second franquisme) ont joué un rôle déterminant dans sa politique menée en France, les évolutions sur le territoire français ont joué un rôle tout aussi important. C’est ce phénomène d’interdépendance, ce jeu de miroir entre France et Espagne, que cette journée d’étude souhaite mettre en lumière.

Seeking the conquest of ruins - the first reconstruction, 1918-1920
La première reconstruction 1918-1920
Dans une région profondément bouleversée par la Grande Guerre, où le retour à une vie normale s'est fait en surmontant d'innombrables difficultés, la Société historique de Soissons organise un colloque consacré à l'étude de cette reconstruction. L'étude ne se limite pas strictement au département de l'Aisne, mais s'étend aux départements limitrophes. Ce sujet comprend notamment le rôle de l'État, les initiatives privées, notamment l'action des coopératives de reconstruction. Parmi les nombreux angles d'étude possibles, on peut citer les aspects humains, sociaux, économiques, financiers, architecturaux et patrimoniaux. Les questions démographiques, la santé et l'hygiène seront aussi au coeur du colloque.

Broadcasting health and disease
Bodies, markets and television, 1950s-1980s
In the television age, health and the body have been broadcasted in many ways: in short health education films, school television, professional training materials, TV ads, documentaries, reality TV shows and news, as well as stand-alone videos distributed to specific audiences. This three-day conference proposes an exploration of how television formats have influenced and staged bodies, health and healthy practices from local, regional, national and international perspectives, and how these TV programmes spread the conviction that viewers could and should invest in their health and shape their own body.

Broadcasting health and disease
Bodies, markets and television, 1950s-1980s
The three-day conference aims to investigate how television programmes in their multiplicity approached issues like medical progress and its limits, healthy behaviour or new forms of exercise by adapting them to TV formats and programming...The conference seeks to analyse how television and its evolving formats expressed and staged bodies, health and fitness from local, regional, national and international perspectives. How spectators were invited not only to be TV consuming audiences, but how shows and TV set-ups integrated and sometimes pretended to transform the viewer into a participant of the show. TV programmes spread the conviction that subjects had the ability to shape their own body.

Objects of Exchange. Art and Economic Encounters
Exchange is classically described by economists as a phenomenon of equalization of values within a given system. When heterogeneous orders of economic rationalities meet, material objects and practices come to embody the paradoxes of dissonant exchange. This symposium aims to explore how artifacts and artistic practices have materialized ruptures within, and encounters between, economic systems in the modern and contemporary period.

Factories on the banks of the Seine
Territories of the second Industrial Revolution of the 20th and 21st centuries
La basse vallée de la Seine, comme bien d’autres espaces similaires, en France ou dans le reste du monde, est marquée à partir de la première guerre mondiale par une vague d’industrialisation d’un nouveau type : le « tournant taylorien » (Patrick Fridenson), qui bouleverse les systèmes productifs à plusieurs échelles, jetant les bases de la « Seconde Révolution industrielle ». L’histoire de cette mutation est au centre des questions que ce colloque vise à explorer. Ces questions n’appartiennent pas qu’au passé mais conduisent jusqu’à nos jours. Les propositions de contribution pourront aussi bien avoir une approche historique que patrimoniale.

All the Beauty of the World. The European Market for non-European Artefacts (18th-20th century)
In the wake of the Western expansion, a fast growing number of non-European artefacts entered the European market. They initially made their way into princely cabinets of curiosities. Enabled by the forced opening and exploitation of more and more parts of the world and pushed by social and technological changes of the time, the 18th century brought a boom of the market of non-European artefacts in Europe. This came along with the emergence of a broader collecting culture and the development of a rich museumscape. This market and its development in terms of methods and places of exchange and monetary and ideological value of the objects are in the focus of an international symposium that will take place in October 2016 in Berlin.

The Smaller European Powers and China in the Cold War, 1949-1989
This international conference aims to examine the policies of the smaller European powers towards China – and vice versa – during the Cold War. Thereby it focuses, on the European side, on both Western and Eastern Europe – regardless of whether a country was part of the NATO or the Warsaw Pact. Meanwhile, on the Chinese side, the conference proposes to include both Chinas, namely the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (RoC). While this should allow for the analysis of different relational constellations, the chronological framework – that ranges from the Communist victory in China in 1949 to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Tiananmen Square uprising in 1989 – should enable us to identify policy shifts and patterns.

Music-Records-Radio in French-Speaking Countries (1900-1950)
In the space of a few decades, from 1900 to 1950, musicians’ and listeners’ relationship to music was transformed with the advent of records and then the radio. The conference seeks to provide researchers an opportunity to explore collectively the relationship between music, records, and the radio by examining the following issues: the interactions between different forms of media and intermedial transfer; the ways in which composers and performers adapted to the new means of dissemination; and the social, economic, and aesthetic consequences on musical activity with the arrival of records and the radio. Restricting the context to French-speaking countries will make it possible to establish comparisons as well as connections between various record “markets” and the radio networks that developed during the period.
