Book Contrabandista entre mundos fronterizos

Download or read book Contrabandista entre mundos fronterizos written by Nicolas Balutet and published by Editions Publibook. This book was released on 2010 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: S’articulant autour de ces axes que sont le voyage vers le Nouveau Monde, l’histoire du christianisme et de l’évangélisation, le franchissement des frontières et normes, et l’ouverture à l’inconnu, évoquant encore ces figures, religieuses ou littéraires, qui ont franchi, socialement, artistiquement, les au-delà, le recueil « Contrabandista entre mundos fronterizos » nous impose plus particulièrement une autre histoire du continent sud-américain. Un sujet qui ouvre les portes sur différents états de cet espace, et qui soulève, implicitement, les problématiques liées aux échanges, aux rencontres entre civilisations, aux imprégnations et canaux souterrains qui se créent entre ce qui semble aux antipodes les uns des autres. Du monde arabo-musulman aux élans anarcho-féministes de l’Argentine, cet ouvrage collectif offre un radical décentrement et, tout en s’ancrant fréquemment dans un départ du Vieux Continent, place dans la lumière les questions des limites et des barrières, de la liberté et, en creux, de la désillusion générée par une certaine déterritorialisation. Organisées en cinq grands thèmes, autant de recherches à l’intelligence éloquente, riches de l’intransigeance et de la précision de leurs auteurs.

Book The Nomadic Object

    Book Details:
  • Author : Christine Göttler
  • Publisher : BRILL
  • Release : 2017-11-06
  • ISBN : 9004354506
  • Pages : 649 pages

Download or read book The Nomadic Object written by Christine Göttler and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the turn of the sixteenth century, the notion of world was dramatically being reshaped, leaving no aspect of human experience untouched. The Nomadic Object: The Challenge of World for Early Modern Religious Art examines how sacred art and artefacts responded to the demands of a world stage in the age of reform. Essays by leading scholars explore how religious objects resulting from cross-cultural contact defied national and confessional categories and were re-contextualised in a global framework via their collection, exchange, production, management, and circulation. In dialogue with current discourses, papers address issues of idolatry, translation, materiality, value, and the agency of networks. The Nomadic Object demonstrates the significance of religious systems, from overseas logistics to philosophical underpinnings, for a global art history. Contributors are: Akira Akiyama, James Clifton, Jeffrey L. Collins, Ralph Dekoninck, Dagmar Eichberger, Beate Fricke, Christine Göttler, Christiane Hille, Margit Kern, Dipti Khera, Yoriko Kobayashi-Sato, Urte Krass, Evonne Levy, Meredith Martin, Walter S.

Book Made in the Americas

Download or read book Made in the Americas written by Dennis Andrew Carr and published by Museum of Fine Arts Boston. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spectacular arts of the first global age fostered by a rich cultural interchange between Asia and the Americas Made in the Americas reveals the overlooked history of Asia's profound influence on the arts of the colonial Americas. Beginning in the 16th century, European outposts in the New World, especially those in New Spain, became a major nexus of the Asian export trade. Craftsmen from Canada to Peru, inspired by the sophisticated designs and advanced techniques of these imported goods, combined Asian styles with local traditions to produce unparalleled furniture, silverwork, textiles, ceramics, lacquer, painting and architectural ornaments. Among the exquisite objects featured in this book, from across the hemisphere and spanning the 17th to the early 19th centuries, are folding screens made in Mexico in imitation of imported Japanese and Chinese screens; blue-and-white talavera ceramics copied from Chinese porcelains; luxuriously woven textiles, made to replicate fine silks and cottons from China and India; devotional statues that adapt Buddhist gods into Christian saints; and japanned furniture produced in Boston that simulates Asian lacquer finishes. The stories told by the objects gathered in Made in the Americas bring to life the rich cultural interchange and the spectacular arts of the first global age.
