Arrival Cities

  • Categories: Art

Exile and migration played a critical role in the diffusion and development of modernism around the globe, yet have long remained largely understudied phenomena within art historiography. Focusing on the intersections of exile, artistic practice and urban space, this volume brings together contributions by international researchers committed to revising the historiography of modern art. It pays particular attention to metropolitan areas that were settled by migrant artists in the first half of the 20th century. These arrival cities developed into hubs of artistic activities and transcultural contact zones where ideas circulated, collaborations emerged, and concepts developed. Taking six majo...

Transnational Belonging and Female Agency in the Arts

  • Categories: Art

Transnational Belonging and Female Agency in the Arts interrogates the politics of space expressed via womxn's artistic practices, which prioritise solidarity and collaboration across borders, imagining attentive geographies of difference. It considers belonging as a manifestation of processes of becoming that traverse borders and generate new spaces and forms of difference. In doing so, the book aims to catalyse mutual social relations founded upon responsibility and response-ability to each other. The transnational framework activates concerns around belonging at a time of intensified divisions, partitioning global narratives, unequal trajectories and increasing violence against bodies of ...

O arquitecto azul

“E é desse modo que percebemos então que este livro nos oferece, fruto de uma visão simultaneamente lúcida e apaixonada, um olhar sobre nós próprios, sobre as vicissitudes da Arquitetura, como arte, como disciplina, mas, sobretudo, como instrumento transformador da realidade. Do pop ao neo-vernacular, da metáfora irónica à revalorização semântica, do oxímoro à alusão escarrapachada, tudo encontra, neste livro de Jorge Figueira, o seu lugar próprio, tudo se rende a princípios de reflexão que, em última análise e por conveniência, se encontram alojados na hospedaria da poética. Há uma proximidade quase familiar para com os temas tratados, mas não há cedências à rec...

  • Publisher: Routledge

Transnational Perspecives on Feminism and Art, 1960–1985 is a collection of essential essays that bring transnational feminist praxis into conversation with histories of feminist art in the 1960s, 1970s, and early 1980s. The artistic practices and processes examined within these pages all centre on gender and sexual politics as they variously intersect with race, class, sovereignty, Indigeneity, citizenship, and migration at particular historical moments and within specific geopolitical contexts. The book’s central premise is that reconsidering this period from transnational feminist perspectives will enable new thinking about the critical commonalities and differences across heterogeneous and geographically dispersed practices that have contributed to the complex and multifaceted relationship between feminism and art today. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, cultural studies, visual culture, material culture, and gender studies.

Performing Modernism

  • Categories: Art

Der Band befasst sich mit der Moderne in Design und darstellender Kunst im Rumänien der Zwischenkriegszeit. Er folgt den transnationalen Wegen bemerkenswerter jüdischer Künstler/-innen, Schauspieler/-innen und Regisseur/-innen der Avantgarde, die in den 1920er- und 30er-Jahren in Bukarest tätig waren. Das Buch deckt einerseits die Geschichte von Bukarests erster moderner Designinstitution auf und untersucht die Verbindungen zu deutschem Design und Bauhaus. Der Fokus liegt andererseits auf innovativen Kollaborationen im Bereich des jiddischen Theaters, darunter der Aufenthalt der weltbekannten Wilnaer Truppe in Rumänien. Die Autorin zeigt auf, wie Bukarest mit Berlin, Riga und Chicago in Verbindung stand, und beleuchtet den Beitrag jüdischen Kulturschaffens zur Avantgardebewegung in Europa und darüber hinaus.

«Este livro impulsa o acréscimo de visibilidade de Salette Tavares com a reunião quase exaustiva (nunca se sabe onde se esconderão mais alguns poemas...) da sua poesia.» In Prefácio, de Catherine Dumas. «Salette Tavares (...) começou por se destacar na década de 1960, no contexto da Poesia Experimental. Enformada por uma continuada reflexão teórica, a sua obra cruza a produção literária e a prática artística, através de uma exploração tridimensional à qual deu o nome de «Poesia espacial». “A terra é uma esfera suspensa”, este verso de Lex Icon exprime bem o conceito do experimentalismo ao qual a poeta se dedica. Toda a estética de Salette Tavares é condicionada pelo inacabado do sentido. A sua obra configura uma cosmogonia poética do por acontecer, por descobrir, do eco sonoro e semântico que nunca acaba, duma surrealidade intrínseca.» In contracapa
