  LGBTI and Queer Art, Culture and Activism

  In France, a few years after the law authorizing same-sex marriage, LGBTQ associations are now facing new struggles, fighting for access to assisted procreation or the creation of a communal archive center. Drawing on these dynamics, this conference aims at interrogating the bonds between LGBTQ forms of arts, cultures and activisms. We look forward to opening a space for academics and grassroots activists, whether they be engaged in institutional collectives or not, to exchange, reflect and dialogue. LGBTQ-related topics appear to be often overlooked in French research networks. We aim to make it more visible and richer, and make it dialogue with local, national and international networks of academics and activists. The « LGBTI and Queer Art, Culture and Activism » online conference is jointly organised by the Université de Lorraine and its research centres (2L2S and CREM), with the support of the French ministry of culture (DRAC Grand-Est), and the LGBTIQ centre Couleurs Gaies.

  Global '68 - Solidarity in Alliance and Global History

  1968 was a year of offensives, uprisings, and demonstrations against capitalism and imperialism, for liberation and emancipation and the war in Vietnam was its epicenter. The events claimed many victories for democracy, equality, and emancipation, but also provoked deep, abiding repression. A counterfeit history has subsequently erased police violence and the deaths of participants, removed workers, women, students, and indigenous peoples from the picture, and eliminated anti-Americanism, anti-imperialism, anti-capitalism, as well as the profound influences of the wars and interventions in Algeria, Latin America, and Vietnam. “Global 68” will retrieve the aspirations, energies, memories, and histories of this worldwide movement and offer hope to a new generation of activists.

  The sex and gender of culture - production, mediation and consumption

  Dans le champ de la culture entendu au sens large, de nombreux travaux ont exploré la division sexuelle du travail artistique et des professions culturelles d’une part, les dimensions genrées des publics, pratiques, réceptions et usages des œuvres, objets et contenus culturels de l’autre. Cependant,  les liens entre les deux domaines ont rarement été approfondis de manière systématique. Par ailleurs, l’intérêt renouvelé pour la médiation et les intermédiaires est rarement envisagé selon une approche genrée. Le colloque entend contribuer à combler ce manque en proposant deux journées et demie de réflexion autour de problématiques transversales à ces trois dimensions - production, médiation et consommation - dans le contexte particulier de l’omniprésence du numérique, qui a profondément redéfini les articulations de ces trois termes.

  Gender and media: what spaces of subversion?

  Les médias ont souvent été appréhendés comme un laboratoire du genre, source et vecteur d’une conception normative et hiérarchisée des représentations qui lui sont associées. S’ils reproduisent les normes dominantes, des éléments transgressifs, voire subversifs, émergent parfois au sein de ces espaces, déstabilisant les assignations sexuées et les oppositions binaires. L’objectif de cette journée d’études est de mettre en lumière ces possibilités, en articulation avec les différents moments du temps médiatique (discours, production, réception).
