War And Peace. The Film Iconeme Of The Urban Square As Image Of Europe In Transition (1944-1948), Paolo Villa
Artl@s Bulletin
A central feature of European urban landscapes, the square represents the public space par excellence. At the end of WW2 and in the immediate postwar time, the role of cinema in representing and reimagining urban squares was crucial. Through film images, they became the stage and the mirror of a Europe in transition. This contribution, examining Italian, French, German, and Czechoslovak cases, posits the square as an essential iconeme in postwar nonfiction cinema and visual culture, acting as a fil rouge to visually retrace the path of Europe from war to peace, and into new forms of political tension.

How To Build A World Art: The Strategic Universalism Of Colour Reproductions And The Unesco Prize (1953-1968), Chiara Vitali
Artl@s Bulletin
What role did UNESCO play in the art world of the post-war era? This article makes use of published and archival sources in order to clarify the utopia of a “World Art” that shaped UNESCO and led to the “Archives of Colour Reproductions of Works of Art”, a project of worldwide collect and diffusion of images of “masterworks” inspired by Malraux’s “Museum without walls”. This case study focuses on one particular aspect of the project, the “UNESCO Prize”, conceived by the Brazilian art critic and Marxist intellectual Mario Pedrosa for the 1953 São Paulo Biennial.
Lumumba’S Iconography As Interstice Between Art And History, Matthias De Groof
Lumumba’S Iconography As Interstice Between Art And History, Matthias De Groof
Artl@s Bulletin
How does Congolese art and artistic representations of Lumumba “mediate past, present and future”? How do they relate to historical narratives and to the dialogues within the Global South? This contribution proposes Lumumba’s iconography as a case in point of the interstice between art and history. It positions the image of Lumumba as mediating between past, present and future for both the Congo and the Global South more broadly.

La prise de conscience de l’importance de préserver le patrimoine cinématographique et de développer une culture cinématographique nationale dans certains pays d’Amérique Latine doit être comprise simultanément au besoin d’appartenir à un réseau d’échange bien plus large que celui dessiné par les frontières nationales. Cet article se propose d’analyser les projets d’intégration des archives du film les plus importants dans la région dans une perspective historique : la création de la Section latino-américaine de la FIAF (1955) et la mise en place, à partir de 1965, de l’Union de Cinémathèques d’Amérique Latine (UCAL).
