Artistic Reconfigurations of Rome
In Artistic Reconfigurations of Rome Kaspar Thormod examines how visions of Rome manifest themselves in artworks produced by contemporary international artists who have stayed at the city’s foreign academies.

Rome Reconfigured
This study examines how visions of Rome manifest themselves in artworks produced by international artists during or after their stay at the city’s foreign academies. I treat the extensive body of aesthetic material as a "laboratory" for exploring the wealth of responsive, sometimes agitated, sometimes conflicting ideas which are not passively transmitted by Rome, but framed, activated and given form by the artists. The account is wide-ranging in so far as it combines a large number of artworks; and it is selective in the sense that it frames these artworks within specific thematically oriented chapters.

Villes en ruine
Dans la mythologie gréco-latine comme dans la tradition judéo-chrétienne, les hommes ont subi des bouleversements qui les ont dépassés et dont les villes ont souvent constitué le théâtre, de l'Atlantide à Troie, de Sodome et Gomorrhe jusqu'au monde dévasté par les cavaliers de l'Apocalypse. C'est que l'histoire de nos villes est jalonnée d'événements traumatiques et de destructions, qu'il s'agisse de désastres naturels comme les tremblements de terre, les inondations, les éruptions volcaniques, ou bien de dévastations causées par l'homme, tels les guerres et les incendies. Ainsi les villes sont-elles le plus souvent des palimpsestes bâtis sur les ruines de mondes révolus. Selon les cas, les fragments, débris et décombres subsistants sont valorisés ou relégués, exaltés ou délaissés, remployés ou oubliés ; pour autant, ils ne cessent de marquer la culture matérielle et immatérielle, de susciter rêveries et fantasmes. On ne saurait donc s'étonner de la place que l'histoire de l'art occidental a accordée aux représentations des catastrophes, où les villes constituent bien souvent l'une des scènes privilégiées de la manifestation du désastre.
