Colloque : « Medieval Statues of the Virgin in Performative Contexts », Bamberg, Universität Bamberg, 7 juin 2024

Medieval sculptures of the Virgin do not exist in isolation, but in perfomative contexts. These settings are situations of co-presence and provide multiple opportunities for contacts. They include the multisensory church space as well as the procession or the museum display – in both permanent and temporary exhibitions. Based on concrete case studies, the international workshop will provide a platform for exploring medieval statues of the Madonna in medieval and post-medieval settings, where artefacts and...

Appel à contribution : « Marian Devotion and the Senses in the Middle Ages », Turnhout, Brepols, date limite le 20 décembre 2023

The volume (publication with Brepols Publishers) seeks to explore the sensory approaches of the Marian cult as reflected in Eastern and Western Christianity.

Suggested topics, on any geographic area or time period...

Appel à contribution : « Rethinking Mary in Early Modern Europe. Women’s Voices and the Virgin Mary », Rome, Norwegian Institute, 22-23 juin 2023, date limite le 15 février 2023

The Virgin Mary is a crucial figure for Western culture and Christian worship, and has always been strictly connected to women and their status in society. A large amount of literature in Latin and the vernacular was written about Mary in early modern Italy and Europe, by both lay and religious men and women, representing her in different ways and with different purposes, transforming and adapting her traditional image. This symposium, with an interdisciplinary approach,...

Exposition : « Visualizing the Virgin Mary », Los Angeles, The Getty Center, 11 octobre 2022-8 janvier 2023

Although the Virgin Mary is one of the most important figures in the Christian tradition, she is little mentioned in the Bible. Drawn from the Getty Museum’s collection of medieval manuscripts, as well as a few choice regional loans, this exhibition shows how fewer than a dozen references to Mary grew into myriad stories and images that celebrate her as a personal intercessor, a compassionate mother, and a heavenly queen.

Parution : Andrea-Bianka Znorovszky, Gerhard Jaritz (dir.), « Marian Devotion in the Late Middle Ages. Image and Performance », Londres, Routledge, 2022

By the late Middle Ages, manifestations of Marian devotion had become multifaceted and covered all aspects of religious, private and personal life. Mary becomes a universal presence that accompanies the faithful on pilgrimage, in dreams, as holy visions, and as pictorial representations in church space and domestic interiors. The first part of the volume traces the development of Marian iconography in sculpture, panel paintings, and objects, such as seals, with particular emphasis on Italy, Slovenia...

Appel à articles : « Mary-Anne : Iconographies and Layers of Meaning », date limite le 10 octobre 2021

The proposed volume concentrates on representations of the Virgin Mary and Saint Anne in the Middle Ages by bringing into discussion new approaches on their iconographies. In certain instances, Mary’s life incorporates episodes of Saint Anne’s allowing, thus, multiple readings and multiple layers of meaning in the very same (visual) representation. The volume is dedicated to the iconography of the Virgin Mary and Saint Anne, generally speaking, from any geographic area. This implies that any...
