21	The distance between us : strategizing a queer, artistic, personal and social politic Fouche, Pierre 12 1900 (has links) Thesis (MA (VA)(Visual Arts))--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. / This thesis considers radical and reactionary political strategies for questioning systems of gender/sexuality categorisation and finds both wanting in terms of the cultural insularity and mainstream assimilation each respectively engenders. An alternative is posited in the form of radical assimilation, a theory borrowing the best elements from both approaches. The remainder of the study is focussed on the search for personal and iconographic strategies to pursue a politic of radical assimilation in my creative production. These strategies are finally exemplified and manifested via discussions of the practical corpus of artworks that aided in the formation of this politic. The discursive framework in which this theorization occurs includes considerations of queer theory and photography (especially domestic photography and portraiture) and subjective contextualization (invoking the domestic uses of images), and all should be seen as constituting a personal discursive framework: an attempt to counter the reductive scope an uncontextualised analysis of my work allows. This study is accordingly an explication of the processes that turn the personal into the political; a critical affirmation of difference; and an attempt to narrow the distances between us.

22	Dino Buzzati et Claude Louis-Combet entre la chair et l'âme / Dino Buzzati et Claude Louis-Combet between flesh and soul / Dino Buzzati e Claude Louis-Combet tra corpo ed anima Di Santo Prada, Sara Emilia 12 June 2012 (has links) Dans le cadre d’une étude comparatiste, ce travail vise à analyser, en les rapprochant pour la première fois, les univers créatifs de l’écrivain italien Dino Buzzati (1906 – 1972) et de son confrère français Claude Louis-Combet (1932 –), selon la dualité chair et âme, qui est une constante de leur oeuvre respective. Les deux auteurs, par le biais de l’autobiographie romancée, de la réélaboration mythique, comme d’une vision originale de l’art figuratif, ont exprimé une sensibilité et un imaginaire étonnamment proches. Ils auront été accompagnés par des figures légendaires et des amis artistes, afin de guider le lecteur vers la dimension fantasmatique et mystique de son inconscient. / As part of a comparative study, this work aims to analyze, by bringing them together for the first time, the creative worlds of the Italian writer Dino Buzzati (1906 – 1972) and his French colleague Claude Louis-Combet (1932 –), according to the flesh and soul duality, which is a constant in their works. Both authors, through the fictionalized autobiography, the mythology reworking, as an original vision of figurative art, expressed sensitivity and imagination surprisingly close. They have been accompanied by legendary figures and fellow artists, to guide the reader into the mystical and fantasy dimension of his unconscious.
