The article examines the term «contemporary artistic practices», which is used in scientific research and literature on contemporary art to refer to diverse artistic processes. Quite vague in its ...essence, the term nevertheless attracts authors and accurately characterizes current trends in art and design. The purpose of the work is to analyze the origins of the term, views on its understanding, and characteristic features that distinguish it from the traditional understanding of artistic creativity.
This article examines the relationship between contemporary art spaces and 'Do-It-Yourself' (DIY) music in Glasgow. It demonstrates the continuity and interconnectedness of DIY music and art ...practices by considering the transition of galleries from 'white cubes' to music venues and spaces for social interaction. Following a brief overview of Glasgow's urban renewal and cultural regeneration, it traces the emergence of the Centre for Contemporary Arts (CCA) and Transmission and provides an outline of their organisational structure and policies. It then explores ethnographically how they have facilitated the cross-pollination between DIY music and contemporary art after the 2008 financial crisis. Approaching art galleries as social spaces that provide a platform for DIY musicians invites a holistic understanding of the reciprocal relationship between DIY music and contemporary art institutions in Glasgow. Therefore, the article considers in turn how these spaces were influenced by the ethics of DIY music. The malleability of contemporary art spaces and their relationship to the DIY ethos demonstrate that cultural policies should aim to strengthen the existing grassroots communities that form the bedrock of the city's cultural scenes. This necessitates a move beyond the labels 'post-industrial' and 'creative city', thus decoupling cultural activities from the discourse of urban competition and Glasgow's economic goals.
Successful career development requires increased career self-management and contemporary career orientations accordingly stress the importance of being self-directed, values-driven, and flexible. ...This paper provides an overview of key perspectives on contemporary career orientations in relation to career self-management (CSM), as well as a systematic review of these two streams of literatures. With a focus on highly influential classic and recent papers as well as on all papers published in the Journal of Vocational Behavior on these topics, we aim to integrate the literatures on career orientations and CSM and advance future research. To this purpose, we present an integrative framework of career self-regulation which views CSM as a dynamic process consisting of goal setting and development, information seeking, planning and execution of behaviors, and monitoring and feedback processing. This process is influenced by, and subsequently affects, individual career orientations. We finish the paper by providing several directions for future research in terms of examining more dynamic and self-regulatory processes, unpacking the role of context, integrating the larger proactivity literature, applying a work-nonwork perspective, and developing and testing interventions.
•We provide a systematic literature review of career orientations and CSM.•A dynamic and self-regulatory perspective integrates career orientations with CSM.•We propose a reciprocal ‘model of career self-regulation’ to guide future research.•The model outlines how career orientations can strengthen CSM and vice versa.•We discuss how context and experiences may shape career orientations and CSM.
On September 8, 2021, the Robert E. Lee Monument in Richmond, Virginia was removed—the final Confederate monument to be toppled on Monument Avenue, the one-and-a-half-mile boulevard dedicated to ...Confederate memory. Two years prior, Kehinde Wiley unveiled Rumors of War, a 27-foot-tall and 16- foot-wide bronze statue showing a young Black man with dreadlocks atop a horse in a hoodie, ripped jeans, and Nikes. Permanently installed outside of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the monument was created to contest the equestrian monuments on Monument Avenue, questioning the historical ideology behind such a representation in the nettlesome geography of Richmond. This paper shows the ways that the monument served as a preface and rallying cry to the contestations and monument removal that would take place on Monument Avenue in the wake of the murder of George Floyd by unpacking the ways in which it lays bare the relationship between white supremacy and the symbolic landscape within the former Confederate capital. In this, I also consider Rumors of War’s role three years after its erection, extending its meaning beyond a historical clap-back or cultural unbundling by critically engaging the history of black equestrians and placing the work in a global context that surpasses any geographic specificity, as it reveals the unseen realities that reverberate from Richmond across the world: from slavery, colonialism, and segregation of the past to the systemic racism and police brutality of today.
•Confederate monuments in Richmond, Virginia worked in tandem with the oppressive policies of Jim Crow.•Richmond's Monument Avenue was developed geographically as a white promenade.•Kehinde Wiley's Rumors of War (2019) forces the confrontation of this historical legacy.•The layered iconography of Rumors of War allows for the connection of the past inequalities of multiple locales.•The questioning of monuments can uncover forgotten and repressed histories within a city's geography.
L’architecture de l’assistance et de la santé est un domaine d’étude récent dans le contexte luso-brésilien, qui a été l’objet ces dernières années de contributions scientifiques importantes à ...travers le développement de travaux universitaires, de projets de recherche, l’organisation d’événements scientifiques et l’établissement de réseaux de coopération entre les deux pays. Par rapport à d’autres thèmes de recherche, la conservation des espaces sacrés dans les institutions hospitalières et d’assistance luso-brésiliennes est un thème important pour l’histoire de l’art et de l’architecture, car elle met en évidence la nécessité de comprendre la morphologie et le phénomène de la sectorisation de l’espace religieux et de proposer des directives de conservation et de valorisation de ces espaces. C’est en considérant les dynamiques contemporaines qui touchent à la fonctionnalité de ces espaces de culte, qui peuvent conduire à leur abandon voire à leur dé-caractérisation esthétique, que l’on cherche donc à promouvoir des stratégies pour leur connaissance, dans une perspective comparée, et la préservation de leur mémoire.
Along with gaining independence, in Ukraine festival tendencies were revived, including theatrical art: the exchange of experiences has been intensified, tendencies to present social- and historical ...topics forbidden during the USSR times along with the search for new means of bringing theatrical art closer to the audience became more visible and prominent. In the early 1990s, festival movement became key to Ukrainian theatre's revival, enabling its adaptation to the new socio-political, economic and cultural reality. The aim of the article is to present the GogolFest festival in the context of various directions of the festival movement after 1991. The idea and initiative to create this multidisciplinary project came from the director, producer and artistic manager of the 'Dach' Center for Contemporary Art. As a result, activities of GogolFest and its evolution have a broader culture-forming scope: through the integration of various fields of art and creators, they aim at modernizing Ukraine in the space of art. This, in turn, is the basic condition of forming or increasing the awareness and conducting social discussion on current and historical topics brought by the reality of contemporary Ukraine.
