The Aesthetics and Politics of Irony
After the tragedy of 9/11 in the West and the crisis of socialism in the East, the overriding ironic tone that had pervaded the 80s and 90s has begun to withdraw from the aesthetic and socio-political scenes. The last decades have witnessed an increasing celebration of affects and emotions, a return of authenticity and the real, and the birth of a “new sincerity”. This backlash against ironic alienation or “cynical reason” hopes to replace playfulness, shallowness and negativity for an ethos of commitment, sensitivity and integrity. Nevertheless, these attempts could easily turn out to be rhetorical or ironic. The present book seeks to address, on one hand, the impulse of and the resistance to irony in today’s artistic, cultural and political discourses and practices. On the other hand, given that ironic attitudes and expressions in late modernity are anticipated in German idealism, constituting as such a Romantic possibility, we welcome reflections on modern irony at large.

Seminar - Epistemology and methodology
Depuis plusieurs années déjà, par le biais de formations et de séminaires, l'Institut national d'histoire de l'art, via en particulier sa composante InVisu, s'est investi dans le numérique éditorial, en effectuant une veille active dans le domaine des humanités numériques, et plus spécialement pour ce qui touche au domaine visuel. De nombreux contacts et échanges sont régulièrement établis entre les différentes composantes de l'établissement et diverses équipes, tant en France qu'à l'étranger, sur des problématiques, des projets concernant les enjeux, les représentations, les aspects techniques, ou les questions juridiques liées à l'image, sous toutes ses formes. Le séminaire Les lundis numériques de l'INHA propose ainsi chaque 2e lundi du mois à partir de septembre 2014 une séance ouverte au public où sont présentées et débattues ces thématiques et ces réalisations.
