  Paris

  Seminar - Representation

  1959-1985, through the prism of the Paris Biennial

  Cette session vise à discuter la valeur symbolique, culturelle et politique de la Biennale de Paris, des années 1950 aux années 1970, et sa réception dans deux contextes totalitaires de part et d'autre du rideau de fer. D'une part, une analyse critique de la Biennale de Paris par la presse polonaise du tournant des années 1950-1960 permettra de positionner cet événement par rapport au climat politique fluctuant de la période et aux débats locaux sur le statut de l'art moderne. D'autre part, l'étude de l'interaction entre les institutions franquistes, les artistes et la Biennale aidera à comprendre la position de cet événement (et son instrumentalisation) dans le contexte des politiques culturelles du régime aussi bien que dans celui de la montée des mouvements hostiles à la dictature et des luttes pour la construction de l'art moderne en Espagne.

  Power and media, media power Insights on the Americas

  Insights on the Americas

  For its 11th issue, RITA proposes to interrogate the links between power and media in the Americas. Several areas of debate can be suggested, although they should not be considered as exclusive. Articles making a critical analysis of official media as well as opposition media, in varied historical and geographical contexts, will of course be welcome. Other articles may deal with the treatment of popular movements by the media. Critical reflections on the relationship between media and economic power are also encouraged. The Thema section can also include analysis of the current diversification of information media by focusing, for instance, on the emergence of “alternative” media on the Internet, or on the power of fake news over the construction of collective representations.
