Zusammenfassung: | This volume explores the relationship between temporality and presence in medieval artworks from the third to the sixteenth centuries. It is the first extensive treatment of the interconnections between medieval artworks' varied presences and their ever-shifting places in time. The volume begins with reflections on the study of temporality and presence in medieval and early modern art history. A second section presents case studies delving into the different ways medieval artworks once created and transformed their original viewers' experience of the present. These range from late antique Constantinople, early Islamic Jerusalem and medieval Italy, to early modern Venice and the Low Countries. A final section explores how medieval artworks remain powerful and relevant today. This section includes case studies on reconstructing presence in medieval art through embodied experience of pilgrimage, art historical research and museum education. In doing so, the volume provides a first dialog between museum educators and art historians on the presence of medieval artifacts. It includes contributions by Hans Belting, Keith Moxey, Rika Burnham and others. |

Beschreibung: | Enthält einen Index auf Seite [251]-254. "This volume has a twofold origin. It developed out of a panel at the 2016 Interna-tional Congress on Medieval Studies in Kalamazoo, entitled “Picturing the Pres-ent: Structuring the Medieval Beholder’s Relation Towards Time.” The panelconsidered how medieval images depicted the present and how they mediatedtheir beholders’ conceptualization of time. A second, larger conference, entitledPicturing the Present: Gegenwart im Bild und Bild in der Gegenwart (200–1600) fol-lowed in June of 2018 at the University of Leipzig. This conference built on thetopic of the Kalamazoo panel by considering the presence of images in relation tothe present time as depicted and experienced by viewers. This conference aimedto bring together more traditional academic research with educational, museolog-ical, and empirical practices. A final session, comprised of scholars and museumeducators, addressed how we can study and teach medieval art today and havemeaningful aesthetic experiences with the objects." (S. [V]) |
