ІХ науковий семінар "Текст і образ: особливості взаємодії між наративом та візуальністю. Міграції, мережі, контакти"

Abstract

On October 17th, 2023, the Department of Art History at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv held the IX research seminar titled “Text and Image: Features of the Interaction between Narrative and Visuality” in a distance format. For this time, the organizers urged participants to delve into the theme of migrations, networks, and contacts within the realm of art. The movement of artists, artistic ideas, forms, etc., has always contributed to the development of culture and art. The urgency of the topic lies in the fact that today migrations are becoming a norm of life and can occur even without the physical movement of a person. The authors of the chronicle aim to spotlight the keynote concepts addressed by the speakers and assess their contributions to the development of the seminar's theme. The seminar organizers proposed the following areas of work: movement of artists, works of art, artistic ideas, and images; cultural exchanges and interactions; networking of artists in the world, etc. The authors of the chronicle examine the reports of all 16 speakers who spoke within four sections, namely: “Migrations of Artists, Ideas and Things in the Ancient World” (discussant: Assistant Professor Olha Novikova), “Cultural Transfer and Migration of Ideas in the Early Modern Period” (discussant: Assistant Professor Illia Levchenko), “Geographical and Transhistorical Migrations” (discussant: Professor Petro Kotliarov), and “The World is Flat: Migrations in the XX–XXI centuries” (discussant: Assistant Professor Illia Levchenko). They also pay special attention to the discussion of reports between other participants of the seminar “Text and Image: Features of the Interaction between Narrative and Visuality”. The chronicle combines updated information on the topic of migrations in the field of art, which were presented by the speakers. It also highlights the latest approaches in the study of this multidimensional phenomenon, considering the issues of artistic movements and intercultural exchanges through the prism of postcolonial and gender approaches, exploring principles such as "artistic will" and ego documentation, among other things.
