L’œuvre plurielle de Max Schoendorff (1934-2012) est approchée au regard du lieu de sa création : l’atelier de l’artiste. Ce lieu foisonnant de matériel, d’images, d’objets et de livres est emblématique de sa pensée. Il livre les traces de ses multiples activités. La monographie de l’artiste est fondée sur l’archéologie de ce laboratoire. Formé à la littérature classique,imprégné de culture allemande, rompu à la transgression, Schoendorff s’engage dès le milieu des années 1950 à Lyon aux côtés de Roger Planchon et d’un petit groupe d’intellectuels et de créateurs. Il s’affirme en tant qu’initiateur d’une décentralisation de la culture. Il trouve ensuite dans la peinture matière à se forger son propre langage, nourri de l’imaginairesurréaliste, de Max Ernst, des tourments métamorphiques d’une matière essentiellement organique. Sa pensée singulière s’exprime dans une œuvre protéiforme qui traverse les champs de la peinture, de la gravure, du livre et de la scénographie de spectacle. Libertaire et utopiste quant à ses convictions sociales et politiques, il s’engage en fondant la MAPRA, Maison des arts plastiques Rhône-Alpes, et l’URDLA, Centre international estampe et livre à Villeurbanne. / The study of MS’s multivocal work is carried out through an on-site investigation of his workshop. The place, which reflects his philosophy, is full of materials, images, objects, and books. It bears testimony to his numerous activities. Indeed writing a monograph of the artist amounts to performing archeological fieldwork and excavation in his studio. Schoendorff studied classical literature, was well-versed on the subject of German culture, and enjoyed transgressing boundaries. As early as 1950, he was labelled as a committed artist together with RP and a small group of intellectuals and creators/designers from Lyon. Heconsidered himself as the initiator of cultural decentralization. He later devoted himself to painting and managed to create his own artistic language based on the surrealist imaginary world, Max Ernst’s production, and the metamorphic alteration of predominantly organic matter. His personal conception of art is expressed in his protean works which include paintings, engravings, books, and spectatorial scenography. A socio-political libertarian and utopian, he founded the MAPRA (Maison des arts plastiques Rhône-Alpes), the R-A Fine Arts Agency and the URDLA, the International Book and Lithography Centre (Centreinternational estampe et livre) in Villeurbanne.

Oggetto d’indagine è il complesso delle celebrazioni e dei preparativi connessi con il passaggio di Maria Teresa d’Austria ed il solenne ingresso dell’arcivescovo Stampa nel 1739, casi esemplificativi di ritualità cittadina e cerimoniali pubblici della prima metà del secolo, rappresentazioni che coinvolsero la città. A confronto è stato analizzato anche il rito di possesso di Maria Teresa, compiuto in absentia nel 1741. Attraverso l’analisi comparativa delle fonti primarie, a stampa e manoscritte, nonché iconografiche, si sono ricostruiti il ruolo delle norme di etichetta, dei cerimoniali, l’intera drammaturgia degli eventi festivi. La ricerca ha altresì riportato alla luce gli apparati allestiti dal Collegio dei Giureconsulti, ignorati dagli studi. Ha evidenziato meccanismi retorici, azioni, aspetti della rappresentazione che permangono, alcuni dei quali appartengono alla sfera degli archetipi. Benché semplificati, i cerimoniali mostrano ancora marcato il culto per la regalità. L’ingresso trionfale si rivela momento significativo per ricondurre la città verso l’immaginario delle origini dell’identità cittadina e rifondare un tempo nuovo. Si evidenzia la necessità della festa, di momenti rituali di rappresentazione e di autorappresentazione; il ruolo drammaturgico e non esornativo di elementi di decoro, quali il baldacchino, l’arco, la carrozza, il ritratto, in una cultura che attribuiva ancora grande valenza alle immagini. / The object of this research is the whole of the celebrations and preparations connected with the passage of Maria Theresa of Austria and the solemn entry of Archbishop Stampa into Milan in 1739, both exemplifications of the 18th century first half civic rituality and public ceremonials, and representations which engaged the city. A confrontation has also been made with the possesso of Maria Theresa, enacted in absentia in 1741. By means of a comparative analysis of the primary sources – printed, hamdwritten and ichnographic as well – it has been possible to reconstruct the role of etiquette norms, ceremonials and of the entire dramaturgy of festival events. The research has also brought to light the apparati set up by the Collegio dei Giureconsulti, so far ignored by studies. It has highlighted rhetorical mechanisms, actions, representational aspects which remain, some of them pertaining to the archetype sphere. Even if simplified, the ceremonials still show a strong cult of regality. The triumphal entry proves to be a meaningful moment to bring the city back to the imaginary of the origins which constitutes its identity and to renovate a new era. The necessity of the feast, of ritualistic moments of representation and auto representation is pointed out; and also the dramaturgic and not ornamental role of decorative elements like the baldachin, the arch, the carriage, the portrait, in a culture which conferred great value to images.

This research has started on pondering over the scenic area in contemporary dance real-time composition. The scenic area, while articulating the scene, congregates architectural space, scenic space and bodies-spaces (interpreters) interdependently. This makes this interrelation as a condition for the outcome of choreographic layers produced in the creation process in the real-time composition, which are also necessary as an artistic object. Thus, the research aims at contextualizing and conceptualizing in a interdisciplinary way the research areas (scenic area and real-time composition) using theoretical remarks on research methodology in arts, contemporary dance, architecture, visual arts and scenography. In practice, this research has pondered overan experience, the performance Sobre pontos, retas e planos [About points, lines and planes], created by the Dramaturgia do Corpo- Espaço e Territorialidade research group [Body-space Dramaturgy and Territoriality], which was presented in five different places in the city of Uberlândia / Essa pesquisa tem como ponto de partida uma reflexão acerca do espaço cênico na composição em tempo real em dança contemporânea. O espaço cênico enquanto articulador da cena congrega espaço arquitetônico, espaço cenográfico e corposespaços (intérpretes) de forma interdependente, fazendo com que essa inter-relação seja condicionante para o resultado das camadas coreográficas produzidas no processo de criação na composição em tempo real, que também se impõem enquanto objeto artístico. Assim, a pesquisa busca contextualizar e conceitualizar de forma interdisciplinar as áreas de investigação (espaço cênico e composição em tempo real), utilizando teóricos das áreas de metodologia de pesquisa em artes, dança contemporânea, arquitetura, artes visuais e cenografia. Em termos aplicados, a pesquisa apresenta reflexões desenvolvidas sobre uma experiência prática, o espetáculo Sobre pontos, retas e planos, trabalho criado pelo Grupo de Pesquisa Dramaturgia do Corpo-Espaço e Territorialidade, que para essa investigação, foi apresentado em cinco lugares diferentes na cidade de Uberlândia / Mestre em Artes

S’appuyant sur l’effervescence dont fait actuellement l’objet le terme de scénographie dans le milieu créatif, ce travail propose d’étudier l’apparition d’une fonction spécifique autour du concept de scénographie urbaine dans la fabrique de la ville contemporaine. En effet depuis les années 1980, dans un contexte d’essor de la ville événementielle, créative et culturelle nous assistons à une multiplication de propositions artistiques éphémères déployant des dispositifs scénographiques dans l’espace public qui font évoluer les modes d’action des acteurs de la fabrique urbaine (opérateurs culturels, artistes, gestionnaires publics et aménageurs). Entre théâtre et espace public, scène et ville, nous retracerons les origines de la scénographie pour ensuite s’intéresser à la scène nantaise qui est ici considérée comme un laboratoire des différentes formes que peut prendre la scénographie urbaine. En définissant le rôle du scénographe sur un terrain d’intervention spécifique, à savoir l’espace urbain, il s’agit par-là d’identifier un groupe professionnel émergent, les scénographes, au regard de l’évolution de leurs pratiques hors du théâtre. Puis, en resserrant la focale sur un territoire, nous caractérisons plus particulièrement la fonction de scénographie urbaine dans son acception contemporaine traduisant une évolution de la place de la création artistique dans la fabrique urbaine. Plus largement, cette étude met en question la production d’espaces urbains, révélatrice de tension entre nécessité fonctionnelle et conception d’espaces sensibles. Entre fabrique artistique et dynamique de récupération, ce travail nous renseigne sur un mode de faire la ville contemporaine à l’interface entre urbanisme du divertissement et utopie artistique. / Based on the current effervescence of scenography in the creative environment , this work proposes to study the appearance of a specific function around the concept of urban scenography in the fabric of the contemporary city. Since the 1980s, in a context of the development of event, creative and cultural city, we are witnessing a multiplication of ephemeral artistic proposals deploying scenographic devices in the public space that evolve modes of action of the actors of the urban factory (cultural operators, artists, public managers and developers). Between theater and public space, stage and city, we will trace the origins of the scenography and then take an interest in the Nantes scene, which is considered here as a laboratory of different forms that can take urban scenography. Infact, in urban space, it is an identifying an emerging professional group, the scenographers, about the evolution of their practices outside the theater. Then, by tightening the focus on a territory, we characterize more specifically the function of urban scenography in its contemporary meaning reflecting an evolution of the place of artistic creation in the urban factory. A larger scale, this study calls into question the production of urban spaces, revealing tension between functional necessity and the conception of sensitive spaces. Between artistic and dynamic recovery, this research informs us about an embodiment of the contemporary city at the interface between town planning of entertainment and artistic utopia.

À la même époque, les Contes et Nouvelles en vers de La Fontaine suscitent des réactions antagonistes, allant du rejet à l’émulation – ce qui constitue une singularité dans l’œuvre du poète. La Fontaine ne cache pas qu’il prend des libertés par rapport à la morale et aux exigences de l’écriture poétique ; mais ses licences relèvent moins d’une transgression que d’une dérogation consentie par les lecteurs mondains.Tout d’abord, il s’agit de déterminer la place de la licence dans le jeu normatif de l’esthétique classique. Comprise comme un écart toléré, la licence ne se limite pas à la poésie : elle s’applique potentiellement à toute norme de l’esthétique classique, selon les critères retenus pour juger l’œuvre. Notre étude analyse la part qu’occupe la licence dans la disposition d’esprit des lecteurs mondains des Contes.En examinant également d’autres conteurs contemporains de La Fontaine qui le considèrent comme un modèle, cette étude montre comment le texte construit sa légitimité en détournant des formes d’écriture ou de pensée qui sont habituelles dans le champ de la mondanité afin de mieux s’y insérer. La Fontaine cherche en effet à instaurer une connivence avec le lecteur. Celle-ci passe par l’appropriation de genres appréciés par la mondanité, par des jeux subtils sur la langue et la versification, et surtout par une scénographie faisant du lecteur un complice de l’entreprise immorale. Le conteur détourne également l’une des composantes essentielles du mode de vie de son lectorat : le loisir. Il livre une version érotique de l’otium dont l’analyse nous permettra de découvrir quel est l’apport des Contes dans l’anthropologie de La Fontaine. / At the same time, La Fontaine’s Contes provoke antagonistic reactions, from rejection to emulation - which is a singularity in the poet’s work. La Fontaine doesn’t hide that he takes liberties with moral standards and versification’s rules, but his licences don’t fall within the transgression : they are derogations granted by aristocratic readers.Firstly, we determine the place of the licence in the normative set of classical esthetic. As a tolerated deviation, the licence isn’t limited to poetry : it potentially applies to any norm of classical esthetic, according to the criteria used to judge the text. Our study analyzes the part occupied by the licence in the state of mind of aristocratic readers of Contes.Also examining other tale’s writers contemporaries of La Fontaine who consider him a model, this study shows how the text built its legitimacy by diverting forms of writing or thinking that are usual to the aristocratic public. La Fontaine seeks to establish connivance with the reader. He appropriates genres appreciated by the aristocratic public and invents a scenography making the reader an accomplice of immoral text. La Fontaine diverts also the lifestyle of its readers : leisure. He gives an erotic version of otium. Within this analysis, we will discover what is the contribution of Contes in La Fontaine’s anthropology.

Identificação e reconstituição das preceptivas da prática cênica no século XVI italiano a partir da análise exegética do \"Tratado sobre as cenas\", pertencente à obra Da arquitetura e Perspectiva do arquiteto e preceptor bolonhês Sebastiano Serlio. O esquadrinhamento dos três gêneros de cenas antigos - tragédia, comédia e sátira -, normatizados por Serlio a partir do escrito vitruviano sobre arquitetura, tem em vista modificações e adequações consoantes à proposição da \"cena moderna\", cuja matéria baseia-se na pintura e na arquitetura, das quais se distingue ao compor assunto próprio às artes cênicas. A cena, perspectiva e tridimensional, ornada com relevos e materiais diversos, é caracterizada por volumes com os quais as personagens interagem, tornando-se espaço próprio à ação cênica, conveniente com o gênero e aparatos. Estendendo-se além da preceituação e confecção dos aparatos cênicos, amplia o ingenium arquitetônico, pela prescrição de ações corporais distintas na figura de personagens em movimento, qualificando matéria da representação cênica, mesmo que ainda não reconhecida como arte autônoma. / Identification and reconstitution of the precepts of stagecraft in the Italian sixteenth century, from the exegetical analysis of the \"Treaty on the scene\", belonging to the work Of architecture and perspective, of the bolognese architect and preceptor, Sebastiano Serlio. The scrutinizing of the three ancient genres of scenes - tragedy, comedy and satire - normalized by Serlio from Vitruvius writing about architecture, aim modifications and adaptations according to the proposition of the \'modern scene\', whose subject matter has its foundations in painting and architecture, from which it distinguishes itself by being proper subject to the performing arts. The scene, three-dimensional and perspective, adorned with reliefs and various materials, is characterized by volumes with which the characters interact, becoming appropriate space to stage action, convenient to the genre and apparatuses. Extending beyond the preception and confection of scenic devices, amplifies the architectural ingenium, by prescribing distinct corporal actions in the figure of characters in motion, qualifying it as matter of scenic representation, even if not yet recognized as autonomous art.

A dissertação aborda as relações entre arquitetura, artes plásticas e teatro da forma como estas aparecem na obra da arquiteta Lina Bo Bardi. Partindo do estudo das arquiteturas cênicas projetadas entre 1960 e 1985, bem como da trajetória dos diretores e grupos teatrais nelas envolvidos, procuramos identificar os procedimentos projetuais acionados pela arquiteta, assim como as relações estabelecidas com o conjunto de sua obra, investigando possíveis articulações com o panorama artístico nacional e internacional. A investigação em torno da dimensão urbana tomada por algumas das montagens teatrais estudadas, bem como da relação destas com o projeto museográfico e atividades dos museus aos quais a arquiteta esteve ligada (especialmente o Museu de Arte de São Paulo, o Museu de Arte Modena da Bahia e o Museu de Arte Popular do Unhão) nos levou a tecer uma série de possíveis relações entre os campos da arquitetura, das artes plásticas e do teatro, abrindo a possibilidade de reflexão sobre os procedimentos projetuais adotados e sobre as perspectivas vislumbradas para a arquitetura no sentido do que Lina chamou de uma \"re-proposição não perfeccionista do racionalismo\". / The dissertation correlates architeture, fine arts and theatre and how these subjects arise in Lina Bo Bardi´s work. Starting from the study of the scenical projects created between 1960 and 1985 and broaching the director´s and theatrical groups involved on it, this treatise tries to identify the projectual proceedings applied by the architect, as well as the relations established with her work and investigating possible links with with the nacional and international artistic panorama. The analysis of the urban dimension reached by some of the studied plays as well as its approach with the project and the activities developed at the museums to which Lina was related (especially to the São Paulo Art Museum - MASP, to the Bahia´s Modern Art Museum and to the Unhão Popular Art Museum) takes us to possible relations between architecture, fine arts and theatre. It also takes us to possible reflexions on the projectual preceedings adopted and the descried perspectives for architecture, or to what Lina called as a \"re-proposition non perfectionist of the rationalism\".

Cette thèse a pour objet la problématique de l’espace dans l’art de la marionnette. S’appuyant sur un corpus de créations contemporaines (compagnie Philippe Genty, Ilka Schönbein, Turak Théâtre, Théâtre de la Licorne), cette recherche examine l’espace marionnettique et ses enjeux en termes d’instauration des corps, de place du spectateur et de théâtralisation de l’imaginaire. La marionnette est ici envisagée comme figure porteuse d’un ailleurs, mais aussi instauratrice d’un espace imaginaire. Une telle théâtralisation est instaurée au travers d’une illusion liée à l’animation, du rapport scène/salle renégocié, d’une mise en abyme qui met en dialogue l’inerte et l’animé. La thèse est par ailleurs attentive aux dispositifs traditionnels, repris et réinventés sur les scènes contemporaines : écran du théâtre d’ombres, table du bunraku, cadre et boîte scéniques du castelet. Il s’agit d’examiner, dans une perspective anthropologique, scénographique et poïétique un espace marqué par une dynamique d’échelles. Comment un tel espace, souvent traversé par une dialectique entre intérieur et extérieur, un dialogue entre réel et illusion, mais aussi une économie scénique fondée sur la monstration et la dissimulation et un enchâssement des niveaux de lecture de l’image scénique peut féconder un imaginaire ? Comment, dans la manipulation à vue, pratique centrale en marionnette contemporaine, l’espace marionnettique devient un véritable espace relationnel et le lieu d’une problématisation de la figure et du corps ? / This thesis aims at dealing with the topic of Space in Puppet Art, through a various corpus of contemporary productions (compagnie Philippe Genty – Ilka Schönbein – Théâtre La Licorne – Turak Théâtre). It considers the puppet space and its key issues in terms of creative « fade-in » process of the bodies, and of theatricalisation of imagination, and explores the status and place of its audience. The puppet, as a figure which carries an « elsewhere », establishes also a new imaginary space. Such process of theatricalisation is produced by an illusion related to animation, by a « new deal » between stage and public, or by a mise en abyme which builds a dialogue between liveless and living being. The thesis pays also attention to the way traditional devices are re-invested and re-invented on contemporary stages: shadow theatre screen, Bunraku table, puppet playhouse and stage. It examines, in an anthropological, scenographical and poïetical approach, how space is marked by a dynamic between different scales.In other terms, it explores how this new imaginary sphere can be produced by such a space, frequently impregnated by a dialectical relationship between the Inside and the Outside, or by a scenic organization founded both on showing and hiding, or on the entrenchment of different reading levels of scenic image. And how, considering on-sight manipulation, which is a current and central practice in modern puppet theatre, the puppetry space becomes a real « relational » space, as it becomes a place where the body is interrogated.

Mest av allt önskar jag att det var mitt namn som stod på dörren. Då skulle jag måla väggarna randiga och köpa husdjur. Känna mig fri. Men jag orkar inte vänta 10,5 år i bostadskön, så nu skapar jag min egna bostads-utopi. Jag har flyttat fjorton gånger och det räcker nu. I mitt examensprojekt använder jag färg och textilt konsthantverk för att ifrågasätta Stockholms bostadspolitik.

When having travelled one returns to, or revisits, a place. Unaware of the personal transformation that has occurred, one realizes the change when confronted with familiar things. In a desire to understand what objects and places mean to people, the project An actual house looks at three objects from a childhood home: a staircase, a window and a curtain and their relation to memory and autonomic consciousness. It reflects upon the importance of memory and imagination in art, architecture, and design - memory as well as imagination as a tool to create a different future. This art-practice-based work uses a hybrid form method. Exploring phenomenology trough writing, creating objects from memory and conveying the work to a perceptible form in a curated exhibition. It wants to contribute to a discussion on the relation between humans, objects and places in time.
