Parution : E. Toreno, « Netherlandish and Italian Female Portraiture in the Fifteenth Century. Gender, Identity, and the Tradition of Power », Amsterdam University Press, 2022

This book investigates the aesthetic and conceptual characteristics of fifteenth-century female portraiture on panel. Portraits of women increased substantially during this century. They formed part of a material and a visual culture borne out of the rapid rise of an oligarchy from entrepreneurial activities that was especially advanced in the urbanised territories of Italy and Flanders. For this reason, the portraits in this book are by Netherlandish and Italian painters. They are simultaneously illustrative of...

Appel à contribution : « The Space Between Non-Arts and Fine Arts: Confronting Gender and the Decorative Arts, 1500–1800 », Birmingham, 14-17 avril 2021, date limite le 19 octobre 2020

During the early modern period, prominent women, such as Catherine de’ Medici and Amalia van Solms-Braunfels, were at the forefront of amassing impressive collections of decorative objects. Limoges enamel pieces created by Susanne de Court and embroideries fabricated by Katharina Rozee were highly sought after by collectors throughout Europe. Recent exhibitions and publications highlight...

Séminaire : « Corps féminin : actualité de la recherche », Paris, Maison de la recherche de la Sorbonne, 2019-2020

Séminaire de Questes Le modèle traditionnel insistant sur l’oppression du corps féminin a été largement enrichi par les recherches récentes. Des cas d’étude ont en effet montré que le corps de la femme médiévale se pense désormais de manière plurielle. Des criminelles aux saintes, la rupture avec la cellule familiale catalyse bien souvent une vie singulière, et le lien que la femme entretient avec son propre corps en est modifié. Ainsi, les recherches actuelles sur...
