Parution : Tobias Frese, “Bilder der Christophanie : Ambiguität, Liminalität und Konversion”, Brill, Leyde, 2022

    Frühmittelalterliche Bilder der Christophanie irritieren den Betrachter oftmals durch widersprüchliche Aussagen. Das Buch analysiert prominente Fallbeispiele in neuen Perspektiven. Doppeldeutigkeiten in der mittelalterlichen Kunst wurden von der kunsthistorischen Forschung lange Zeit unterschätzt oder gänzlich ignoriert. Dies resultierte aus dem traditionellen Anliegen der ikonographischen Interpretationspraxis, christliche Bildinhalte möglichst eindeutig zu bestimmen. Motivische Widersprüchlichkeiten wurden zumeist als Ausnahmen disqualifiziert, auf pragmatische Gründe zurückgeführt oder als künstlerische Fehler abgetan. Im Buch wird anhand mehrerer Fallbeispiele dargelegt,...

Series :  Art and Material Culture in Medieval and Renaissance Europe, Volume: 18 Volume Editors : Gillian B. Elliott and Anne Heath Premodern architecture and built environments were fluid spaces whose configurations and meanings were constantly adapting and changing.

Conférence : Stephen G. Perkinson, « Memento mori. Imagery and the Limits of the Self in Late Medieval Europe », Londres, The Courtauld Institute et en ligne, 26 mai 2022, 17h30

Objects bearing memento mori themes were abundant in Europe in the decades immediately around the year 1500. The material properties of these objects – the matter from which they were formed, the apparent care or negligence with which they were fashioned, and the ways their physical condition betrays signs of heavy use or careful conservation – can point us toward a better understanding of the diversity of interests that inspired their creation and use. These motivations range...

Appel à communication : « Between Figure and Ground : Seeing in Premodernity », Bâle, date limite le 22 décembre 2019

The international conference “Between Figure and Ground: Seeing in Premodernity” aims to critique and expand vocabularies used to describe, analyze, and interpret medieval and early modern pictures. The conference brings together art history, image theory (Bildwissenschaft), historiography, and methodological...
