Cultivating one’s own garden, expanding horizons
Mapping the personal and the collective through history of art and the humanities, from Impressionism to the present day
The Seine has shaped the history of the Impressionist movement, which, in turn, left a lasting mark on the land. The research framework of this programme places the focus on this influential geographical backdrop, as part of a broader reflection on our regions. Housing traditions, ways of life, social structures, land uses, and the impact of agricultural and industrial development on the landscape are just some of the lines of research that require further study about Impressionism. This summer school aims to open up new perspectives through cross-disciplinary collaboration while experimenting with scales of analysis, to reflect on the experience of land from the most personal to the most universal.

The agency of images in the cognitive ecology of artificial intelligence
“ASRI Journal. Art and Society” No. 31
This volume of ASRI Journal. Art and Society invites academics and visual artists, at any stage of their career, to contribute research and practices that explore the epistemic and ontological relationships and differences between the agency of AI-generated images and the agency of art images, as well as the role of artistic practice in critiquing and visualising the socio-technological conditions of visual culture in the age of GenAI.

Mobilising Heritage: Dance, Theatre, and Performance in the Age of (In)Tangibility
European Journal of Theatre and Performance, Vol. 8, No. 1
This turn toward the intangible and communal dimensions of heritage exposed deep tensions between preservation and change, expert authority and bottom-up participation, or institutional policies and bodily practices. These frictions are particularly visible in dance and the performing arts, where heritage is literally embodied, enacted, and reimagined through practice. In what this special issue terms the age of (in)tangibility, the performing arts are recognised as intangible heritage precisely as they are rendered tangible through documentation, digitisation, and policy frameworks, revealing a constitutive tension between embodied, relational knowledge that exists only in practice and the material, institutional forms through which heritage is named, governed, and sustained.

International Congress of Art, Science, and Technology and Digital Arts Seminar (11th CIACT- SAD 2026)
From May 25th to 27th, 2026, BeloHorizonte/MG - Brazil will once more be the site of the International Congress of Art, Science, and Technology and Digital Arts Seminar (11th CIACT-SAD). It has as its theme for this edition: “Artifices &Artefacts”. It emerges from techniques and poetics, from software and code, from manual and automated actions, but also from cultural and artistic objects—whether physical or not—born from production in the intersection of art, science, and technology. The theme of this edition reveals crossings between the analog and the digital without establishing hierarchies.

The Art Museum in the Digital Age (2026)
This international online conference explores the complex interrelations between truth, fake and falsified information, and knowledge authority in the context of digital transformation processes. In light of increasing disinformation, AI-generated content, and algorithmic bias, museums face the challenge of rethinking their role as trusted spaces for knowledge dissemination. At the same time, digital technologies open up new possibilities for participation, contextualization, and translation. At the heart of the conference is the question of how museums can assume digital responsibility and actively contribute to fostering an open and reflective information culture.

Politiques des archives visuelles
Intermédialité, décolonialité et création
Nous interpréterons différents types d’archives visuelles dans une perspective intermédiale et décoloniale, c’est-à-dire en interrogeant les liens entre les différentes formes et utilisations des images d’archives, le rôle des technologies mobilisées pour leur conception et celui des institutions au sein desquelles ils s’inscrivent (archives, musée, salle de cinéma, tribunal, université, etc.). En plus de l’intermédialité qui demeure l’axe principal de l’école d’été, plusieurs autres approches seront mobilisées allant des études autochtones à l’anthropologie, les études cinématographiques et photographiques, mais aussi les humanités numériques et la préservation audiovisuelle.

Mémoires et agentivités aquatiques dans la littérature et les arts panhispaniques
Partiendo de la constatación de que el elemento acuático conlleva significados variados y a veces opuestos, mientras cristaliza retos memorísticos, políticos, éticos o estéticos, este congreso pretende suscitar una reflexión sobre la forma en que, en los discursos literarios y artísticos, el agua ofrece la posibilidad de repensar la relación del ser humano con el otro y con su entorno. Entre memoria y agentivida, ¿cómo refleja el agua la capacidad de los individuos y las comunidades humanas para articular discursos o actos de resistencia a través del arte ? ¿Las representaciones del agua —elemento dual— funcionan como símbolos de violencia o permiten imaginar otras formas de habitar el mundo ?

Perspective Journal, no. 2027 – 1
At a time when ecology has become a major preoccupation and a key issue in political, economic and social terms alike, art historians have resolutely taken on the questions it raises through a profound renewal of their approach to nature. The term “figures”, in the geometrical and metaphorical sense of forms, singular historical and cultural configurations, calls for identifying, investigating and understanding the different definitions of naturalism that the history of art has produced, depending on their specific intellectual contexts.

Dialogue Between Matter and Form: Aesthetic Issues in the Arts and Design
This international symposium explores the aesthetic, technical, and cultural dialogue between marble and sculptural form. By examining marble across art history, contemporary sculpture, architecture, and design, the event aims to understand how matter shapes artistic expression and how creators negotiate between material constraints and formal innovation. The symposium seeks to foster interdisciplinary debate, highlight regional and Mediterranean practices, and propose new perspectives for research, creation, and sustainable development in marble-based artistic practices.

Les affiches : entre art, publicité et communication interculturelle
Le colloque international «Les affiches : entre art, publicité et communication interculturelle», organisé à l’Université de Lorraine (Nancy) les 3 et 4 décembre 2026, propose une réflexion pluridisciplinaire sur l’affiche comme objet artistique, médiatique et interculturel. En croisant les approches historiques, esthétiques, sémiotiques et traductologiques, il interrogera les fonctions sociales, symboliques et communicatives de l’affiche, de ses origines à nos jours. Véritable miroir des sociétés et vecteur d’échanges entre cultures, l’affiche sera envisagée comme un espace d’expression et de circulation des imaginaires, entre art, publicité et communication interculturelle.

Patrimoines vulnérables
Malgré la stabilité des pratiques conservatoires et un appareil réglementaire étoffé, les professionnels de la conservation du patrimoine font face à la diversification des risques de perte des biens culturels dont ils ont la responsabilité. Sûreté des biens culturels, conjoncture budgétaire contraignante, confrontation à de nouveaux types de patrimoines : il s’agit là d’autant de facteurs de vulnérabilité dont les professionnels du patrimoine doivent tenir compte avec ludicité et inventivité.

Acquérir, montrer et voir les œuvres érotiques
Le musée n’est pas seulement un lieu d’exposition : il est aussi un espace où se négocient sans cesse la visibilité et la valeur des œuvres. En suivant la thèse formulée par Walter M. Kendrick – selon laquelle l’isolement d’images jugées inmontrables a contribué, paradoxalement, à constituer la catégorie autonome de la pornographie –, ce colloque propose d’explorer le rôle du musée dans la construction et la reconfiguration des regards genrés portés sur les objets liés à la sexualité et/ou au désir (érotiques et pornographiques).

Postérité et fortune critique des artistes européens du XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles
Comment certains artistes, autrefois célébrés, sombrent-ils dans l’oubli quand d’autres traversent les siècles ? Comment se construit — ou se déconstruit — la mémoire artistique ? Ce colloque interroge les mécanismes complexes de la postérité, entre réception critique, stratégies mémorielles, institutions, expositions et redécouvertes. Deux journées d’échanges réunissant historiens de l’art, conservateurs, restaurateurs et chercheurs internationaux autour d’artistes oubliés, célébrés ou réévalués — de Simon Vouet à Jacques-Louis David, de Mary Beale à Liotard.
