  Maillol and after

  Orsay Rencontres

  The Musée d’Orsay is devoting a retrospective to Aristide Maillol (1861-1944) which will show him in all the diversity of his work, painting, decorative art and sculpture. On the occasion of the exhibition, we are organising a symptosium which aims at reading Maillol work from a contemporaneous perspective. This will thus provide an opportunity for the contemporary re-reading that Maillol’s work calls for. Papers on the following aspects of Maillol’s work are expected: sources (artistic, literary, musical); modalities of exhibiting; friendly and intellectual circles; influence on sculptors of the 20th century and his place in the history of sculpture; view of photographersand filmmakers; critical reception; contemporary echoes.

  Borders, Limits and Environment: Times, Spaces, Methods

  The conference “Borders, Limits and Environment: times, spaces, methods” held in Mulhouse from 1st December to 3d December, 2022, aims at deepening the dialogue between humanities and social sciences on environmental questions by considering the theme of borders and limits. These two terms can be considered as historical or geographical objects, but also as a way to reflect upon disciplinary, methodological or didactic limits. During the conference, we wish to study, and maybe to reconnect the links between studies and academic disciplines involving time, space and the environment, especially between environmental history and geohistory of the environment.

  « Harragas », « migrants », « réfugiés » : Quelles représentations de l’altérité à l’ère des médias socionumériques ?

  This scientific event aims to debate, through very diverse sources (political speeches, newspaper articles, shared videos of irregular migrants, cultural productions, legal texts, interviews, comments on social networks, novels, cartoons and images of documentary value), current migrations and experiences of otherness. The subject is still topical, in particular with the French new resolution to tighten granting Schengen visas to Algerians, Tunisians and Moroccans, a decision which aroused strong reactions on both sides of the Mediterranean.

The aim of these workshops will be to explore the multiple definitions that student involvements can cover.

  Levantine Sociabilities in Europe in Giacomo Casanova’s time

  Spies, Impostors, Courtesans and Men of Culture

  This conference will encourage discussions and exchanges between international scholars on how national models of sociability and traditional Enlightenment values may have been affected and reconfigured by the Levantine practices of intrigue, libertinage and criminality. Through the multiple facets of Casanova (trickster, libertine, social climber, gambler, political agent...) and his European travels and networks, this conference will also address the circulation of knowledge and fashions between Europe and the East and the evolution of sociability thanks to various media: commerce, diplomacy, travel, letter- writing, translation, leisure and other sociable practices.

  Cinematerialisms

  New Materialist Approaches to the Audiovisual (Cinema, Media, Digital Arts)

  The goal of this conference is to investigate the contemporary reconfigurations of the notion of materialism within the disciplines of the arts and of audiovisual cultures. Is it possible to locate a common or core base of materialist practices, methods, or objects of study in these disciplines, or must we accept the plurality of meanings associated with this theoretical axis? To what degree is it productive to distinguish between the terms material, materiality, materiological, etc.? Beyond these terminological questions, we intend to interrogate the points of articulation between reflections on the materiality of audiovisual works and the materialist analysis of their processes of production and reception.

  Tomi Ungerer, saute-frontières (1931-2019) : langage des images, langage de l’enfance

  Tomi Ungerer, border hopper (1931-2019) : Languages, images and childhood

  Alsacien, français, allemand, anglais (des États-Unis à l’Irlande)… Tomi Ungerer est un « saute-frontières », selon sa propre expression : il a grandi entre plusieurs langues, passant souvent de l’une à l’autre, il a franchi les frontières des publics et des conventions. Ce collectionneur passionné de jouets a révolutionné le langage de l’image et de l’enfance, en offrant des albums audacieux et dérangeants aux enfants du monde et aux adultes qui les accompagnent. Pour rendre hommage à une œuvre décidément vivante et actuelle, ce colloque réunira des chercheurs, des artistes, et des professionnels du livre pour explorer l’esprit et le style de cet immense artiste.

  Dreaming Things

  Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Object Worlds and Dream Cultures

  While the close interconnection between the universe of things (expanding in a commodity-shaped way), the dream and its reflection in arts and media may be considered a founding trope of European modernity around 1900, the extension of our focus on pre-modern contexts and transcultural constellations in the present opens up new perspectives on connections between object cultures and dream cultures.

  Controversies over Methods in European Union law

  This series of seminars aims at providing an overview of different methods in European Union law, both old and new, both mainstream and not, by putting them in perspective with each other and by questioning their underlying assumptions. In order to do so, participants are expected to engage in a reflexive exercise that will make their methods and their position in the controversy explicit: What methods do they use and what do these methods imply? With whom and against whom do they think European Union law? Do they find it useful to exhume an author that in their view has been unduly neglected or, on the contrary, to call for new approaches to understand EU law?
