This symposium will consider time as it relates specifically to the visual arts of the United States, from the 17th to the 21st century. In doing so, it will unveil time as a fundamental dimension to American culture, despite a long tradition emphasizing the centrality of space.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past decades, a number of historical studies have demonstrated that time is not a straightforward or neutral framework. From discussing the emergence of standardized, rationalized time as concomitant with the rise of industrialization, to analysing the temporalities of colonialism, these studies have shown that the concept of time is historically determined and that it constantly evolves under the pressures of technological, social, and economic factors. Yet in the field of art history, and especially U.S. art history, studies devoted to time as it relates to the visual arts remain comparatively limited in scope and number. This symposium will address this absence by taking a long view at the development of the concept of time in American art and visual culture.<\/p>\n<p>We invite contributions from scholars whose research focuses on the variety of strategies, devices, and formulations that artists used for the concept of time in their work. The symposium will investigate the historical dimensions of such issues as the temporalities of art making and art perception; the idea of the image as a way of arresting time or, on the contrary, time as an integral dimension of the artwork; notions of memory and anticipation; art as a bridge between the past and the future; the circulation and evolving reception of artworks over time; archives and historiographies; the development of timelines of art history or, on the contrary, the concept of art\u2019s ahistoricity. Such comprehensive consideration of the notion of time seems to have particular urgency today, at a moment of intense reckoning with the enduring legacies of the past and the arresting inability to imagine the future, threatened by the climate crisis and the global pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>Please send a proposal (500 words maximum) and a short CV to: about.time.symposium by June 30, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Selected contributors will be notified by July 25, 2021<\/p>\n<p>Organized by H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Valance, associate professor of American studies at Universit\u00e9 de Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9 and CNRS research fellow at LARCA, Universit\u00e9 de Paris, and Tatsiana Zhurauliova, associate researcher at LARCA, Universit\u00e9 de Paris.<\/p>\n<p>About Time : Temporality in American art and Visual Culture<br \/>\nUniversit\u00e9 de Paris, 4-5 novembre, 2021<\/p>\n<p>De l&rsquo;afro-futurisme aux statues comm\u00e9moratives, des proph\u00e9ties dystopiques \u00e0 la c\u00e9l\u00e9bration d&rsquo;un \u00e9ternel retour de la &quot;grandeur&quot; am\u00e9ricaine, la culture am\u00e9ricaine est et a toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 profond\u00e9ment ancr\u00e9e dans la notion de temps. Ce colloque examinera la question du temps dans sa relation sp\u00e9cifique avec les arts visuels des \u00c9tats-Unis, du XVIIe au XXIe si\u00e8cle. Ce faisant, il d\u00e9voilera le temps comme une dimension fondamentale de la culture am\u00e9ricaine, malgr\u00e9 une longue tradition insistant sur la centralit\u00e9 de l&rsquo;espace.<\/p>\n<p>Au cours des derni\u00e8res d\u00e9cennies, un certain nombre d&rsquo;\u00e9tudes historiques ont d\u00e9montr\u00e9 que le temps n&rsquo;est pas un cadre simple ou neutre. Qu&rsquo;il s&rsquo;agisse de l&rsquo;\u00e9mergence d&rsquo;un temps standardis\u00e9 et rationalis\u00e9, concomitant \u00e0 la mont\u00e9e de l&rsquo;industrialisation, ou de l&rsquo;analyse des temporalit\u00e9s du colonialisme, ces \u00e9tudes ont montr\u00e9 que le concept de temps est historiquement d\u00e9termin\u00e9 et qu&rsquo;il \u00e9volue constamment sous la pression de facteurs technologiques, sociaux et \u00e9conomiques. Pourtant, dans le domaine de l&rsquo;histoire de l&rsquo;art, et en particulier de l&rsquo;histoire de l&rsquo;art des \u00c9tats-Unis, les \u00e9tudes consacr\u00e9es au temps en relation avec les arts visuels restent relativement limit\u00e9es en port\u00e9e et en nombre. Ce colloque tentera de combler cette lacune en examinant le d\u00e9veloppement du concept de temps dans l&rsquo;art et la culture visuelle am\u00e9ricains.<\/p>\n<p>Nous invitons les contributions de sp\u00e9cialistes dont les recherches analysent les diverses strat\u00e9gies, dispositifs et formulations employ\u00e9s par les artistes pour aborder le concept du temps dans leur \u0153uvre. Le colloque examinera dans leur dimension historique des questions telles que les temporalit\u00e9s de la cr\u00e9ation et de la perception de l&rsquo;art ; l&rsquo;id\u00e9e de l&rsquo;image comme moyen d&rsquo;arr\u00eater le temps ou, au contraire, le temps comme dimension int\u00e9grale de l&rsquo;\u0153uvre d&rsquo;art ; les notions de m\u00e9moire et d&rsquo;anticipation ; l&rsquo;art comme pont entre le pass\u00e9 et le futur ; la circulation et la r\u00e9ception des \u0153uvres d&rsquo;art dans le temps ; les archives et l\u2019historiographie ; la p\u00e9riodisation de l&rsquo;histoire de l&rsquo;art ou, au contraire, la dimension anhistorique de l&rsquo;art. Cette r\u00e9flexion globale sur la notion de temps semble particuli\u00e8rement urgente aujourd&rsquo;hui, \u00e0 un moment o\u00f9 nous devons nous confronter aux h\u00e9ritages du pass\u00e9 et \u00e0 la difficult\u00e9 d&rsquo;imaginer un avenir menac\u00e9 par la crise climatique et la pand\u00e9mie mondiale.<\/p>\n<p>Les propositions de communication (maximum 500 mots) accompagn\u00e9es
