The Mediterranean of the artists. A critical modernity, 1880-1945
Prenant le contrepied de l’histoire canonique d’une modernité d’origine essentiellement septentrionale, ce colloque se propose de redessiner une cartographie artistique où le « sud » ne jouerait plus le rôle convenu de la subalternité, mais celui autrement plus stimulant d’une altérité active, dans un espace divers et multipolaire. Les limites chronologiques envisagées – 1880-1945 – tiennent compte de la présence diffuse d’une pensée méditerranéenne des arts, savants ou populaires, fixés sur l’horizon avant-gardiste ou cherchant leur « futuro alle spalle » (Pirani 1998), exaltant un idéal universaliste humaniste ou prêtant allégeance à la troisième voie fantasmée des fascismes. Puisant aux racines d’une culture populaire ou nationale, ces modernités se caractérisent par une volonté de conciliation avec une tradition recomposée.
