Spectacles en France
"Danse, cirque, théâtre, opéra, marionnettes, autant d'arts de la scène qui reposent sur une relation éphémère entre des acteurs et des spectateurs. Dès lors, que reste-t-il de ces représentations où des hommes et des femmes se donnent, pour un temps limité, à se faire voir et entendre par d'autres? De ces fugitive materials: les voix, les intonations, les gestes ou les postures? Et que faire de ce qui ne figure pas immédiatement dans le champ de la représentation? De ce qui est hors cadre, en dehors du champ? L'historien(ne) du spectacle, et plus généralement tout observateur des arts de la scène, doit donc composer avec l'absence. Dans ces conditions, comment et pourquoi g...
L'empire du rire - XIXe - XXIe siècle
Avec l'avènement de la démocratie, le rire apparaît comme un bien commun, partagé par tous et irriguant la totalité de l'espace public. Ce rire démocratique prend aussi appui sur la puissance de propagation et d'innovation des nouvelles industries médiatiques, qui acquièrent un poids économique et une force de frappe incomparables : acteur majeur de notre culture moderne du loisir et du divertissement, le rire s'est imposé à tous et constitue aujourd'hui l'un des moteurs de la société marchande et du consumérisme. Mais le rire répond aussi à un besoin anthropologique plus large : il soulage face aux angoisses de l'existence, et permet d'expérimenter le plaisir de la conniven...
The London Stage 1890-1899
Theatre in London has celebrated a rich and influential history, and in 1976 the first volume of J. P. Wearing’s reference series provided researchers with an indispensable resource of these productions. In the decades since the original calendars were produced, several research aids have become available, notably various reference works and the digitization of important newspapers and relevant periodicals. The second edition of The London Stage 1890–1899: A Calendar of Productions, Performers, and Personnel provides a chronological calendar of London shows from the first of January, 1890, through the 31st of December, 1899. The volume chronicles more than 3,000 productions at 31 major c...
Objects: USA 2020
Objects: USA 2020 hails a new generation of artist-craftspeople by revisiting a groundbreaking event that redefined American art. In 1969, an exhibition opened at the Smithsonian Institution that redefined American art. Objects: USA united a cohort of artists inventing new approaches to art-making by way of craft media. Subsequently touring to twenty-two museums across the country, where it was viewed by over half a million Americans, and then to eleven cities in Europe, the exhibition canonized such artists as Anni Albers, Sheila Hicks, Wharton Esherick, Wendell Castle, and George Nakashima, and introduced others who would go on to achieve widespread art-world acclaim, including Dale Chihul...
In Dreams Awake
* An in-depth look at artist Kathy Ruttenberg's process and installation of six large-scale sculptures on New York's historic BroadwayOn April 27, 2018, six large-scale sculptures were unveiled along New York's historic Broadway - from across from Lincoln Center, at 64th Street and extending up to 157th Street. The artist, Kathy Ruttenberg, most known for her fantastical mix of human, nature, and plant forms used in ceramics, watercolor, and sculpture, spent months planning, designing, and executing the works. From an armless mouse atop a squash-like pedestal, to an upside-down female Atlas, a woman caught in a contemplative moment while inside a snail's shell, and a deer-man and his tree-lady partner who walk in an embrace these fairytale-like creatures are juxtaposed against New York's chaotic urban landscape. In Dreams Awake also the name of the installation tracks Ruttenberg's progress is tracked from concept to the final results. Sponsored by the Broadway Mall Association, the installation will be up through March 2019.
The Myth of the Twentieth Century
Regarded as the second most important book to come out of Nazi Germany, Alfred Rosenberg's Der Mythus des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts is a philosophical and political map which outlines the ideological background to the Nazi Party and maps out how that party viewed society, other races, social ordering, religion, art, aesthetics and the structure of the state. The "Mythus" to which Rosenberg (who was also editor of the Nazi Party newspaper) refers was the concept of blood, which, according to the preface, "unchains the racial world-revolution." Rosenberg's no-hold barred depiction of the history of Christianity earned it the accusation that it was anti-Christian, and that unjustified controvers...
