Philip Rahtz Lecture Theatre, Kings Manor, University of York, UK, Jul 09, 2025, 4–6pm. All welcome, no ticket required. The period of Western art history known as “the Baroque” has traditionally been interpreted as a stylistic phenomenon, the result of shifts in elite taste between classical decorum and rococo exuberance. Yet artistic production in Europe c. 1600–1750 was enabled by a proto-industrial world system dominated by Spain and Portugal, the Netherlands and later Britain, entangling...

Appel à contribution : « Fragility and Recalcitrance », Sculpture Journal, date limite le 1er décembre 2024

In light of so much global destruction, our increasing awareness of the finiteness of resources, and the continuing legacy of colonialism, Sculpture Journal invites authors to explore how these issues have impacted artistic and cultural production through the lens of materiality specifically.

Among the artifacts crafted by humankind, textiles have always held a uniquely interdependent relationship with the environment. Textiles derive from vegetal (hemp, raffia, ramie, cotton, or bark cloth), animal (wool, silk) and even mineral origins (as in the case of asbestos fibers). The production of textiles has depended upon access to and the processing of raw materials, while cloth manufacturing has reshaped entire landscapes from the transplantation of mulberry trees for sericulture to the mounds...
