Colloque: “Sanguis Christi. Culture visuelle/culture visionnaire (XIIIe-XVIIIe siècles)”, Louvain-la-Neuve, Université Catholique de Louvain, du 3 au 5 décembre 2025

RÉSUMÉ Ce colloque propose d’explorer comment la dévotion au Saint-Sang, sous ses multiples formes et manifestations (reliques, sacrement, miracles), a façonné et nourri l’émergence d’une culture visuelle en Europe depuis le Moyen Âge jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle. Par culture visuelle / visionnaire, ce colloque entend ainsi donner une place à une approche qui sache interroger ce qui se donne à voir du Sang du Christ, en explorant l’articulation voire la tension qui émerge entre ce que...

Parution : Tobias Frese, “Bilder der Christophanie : Ambiguität, Liminalität und Konversion”, Brill, Leyde, 2022

    Frühmittelalterliche Bilder der Christophanie irritieren den Betrachter oftmals durch widersprüchliche Aussagen. Das Buch analysiert prominente Fallbeispiele in neuen Perspektiven. Doppeldeutigkeiten in der mittelalterlichen Kunst wurden von der kunsthistorischen Forschung lange Zeit unterschätzt oder gänzlich ignoriert. Dies resultierte aus dem traditionellen Anliegen der ikonographischen Interpretationspraxis, christliche Bildinhalte möglichst eindeutig zu bestimmen. Motivische Widersprüchlichkeiten wurden zumeist als Ausnahmen disqualifiziert, auf pragmatische Gründe zurückgeführt oder als künstlerische Fehler abgetan. Im Buch wird anhand mehrerer Fallbeispiele dargelegt,...

Conférence : Michele Bacci, « Charles V and the Pantokrator », en ligne, 30 avril 2021 à 15h

In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, painters’ workshops of Candia, on the Venetian-ruled island of Crete, became specialized in the massive production of icons, made for a distinctively international market. Strongly appreciated also in Western Europe, they displayed a rather large repertory of more or less conventional types and compositions, rooted in Byzantine Palaiologan tradition, but they also happened to be adapted, transformed, and made suitable for the specific, sometimes even idiosyncratic needs of their...
