الفنون المعاصرة من خلال أعمال ربيع مروة, Hana Kaaki

Regards

The article deals with the works of Rabih Mroué and its place in contemporary artistic practices in the Middle East region. The question of the study centers on the specificity of contemporary practices and the creative process of the artists in question, and the redefinition of Aesthetics – at least the traditional meaning of the concept – in light of the transformations of artistic thought and achievements.

La « Mimèsis » Dans Le Théâtre Et La Peinture, Joanna Raad

Regards

Le terme mimésis vient du verbe mimisthai qui signifie imiter, ou plus précisément suivre un exemple ou faire une « représentation ». Ainsi, l’imitation, ou mimésis, est un principe académique qui impose un culte de la représentation fondé sur la reconnaissance. Cet article voudrait discuter la manière dont la mimésis et l’illusion au théâtre interagissent avec l’art, et plus particulièrement la peinture.

La Prédominance Des Techniques Audiovisuelles Et Numériques Au Théâtre, Marcel Ghosn

Regards

The evolution of technologies in the audiovisual and theatre fields has succeeded in breaking the separation between actors and digital bodies. What is an actor today? Is he still essential on stage or in film? And what about digital bodies and their ability to produce and convey emotions and performances in the same way as a human actor?

Résumé

L'évolution des technologies dans les domaines du théâtre et de l’audiovisuel a permis d’effacer la frontière entre le corps de l’acteur et les corps numériques. Cela nous amène à poser la question : qu’est-ce qu’un acteur aujourd’hui ? Est-il toujours central …

فسيفولد إيميلوفيتش مايرخولد العبقري المشاغب, Michel Jabre

Regards

Meyerhold, dubbed “the people’s artist” by the Soviet regime, led a tumultuous artistic life and carried out provocative experiments in unconventional theatre settings. After cofounding the Moscow Art Theatre with renowned colleagues such as Stanislavski and Danchenko, he left the company to regain his independence as an actor and stage director. He then developed his theoretical concept of “conditional theatre,” reinterpreting classical plays in innovative ways and reimagining them within a renewed contemporary theatrical context.

Résumé

Meyerhold, surnommé « l’artiste du peuple » par le régime soviétique, a eu une vie artistique tumultueuse et a mené des expérimentations provocantes dans …

Éditorial, Joseph Korkmaz

Le cinéma libanais s’illustre par son dynamisme manifeste dans le nombre de films tournés. Des comédies légères épinglent quelques caractéristiques et travers de la société et des mœurs libanaises. Des feuilletons télévisés engourdissent une frange importante de la population, avide de romantisme et d’aventures rocambolesques.
De ce lot de productions émergent des œuvres qui méritent considération et encouragement, surtout quand il s’agit de premiers films [...]

مسـرح شـوشـو للأطفال, Rana Azzaz

Regards

Theatre for children is grounded in imaginative creativity and forms an educational, intellectual, and aesthetic tradition that refines a child’s spirit while developing taste, a sense of beauty, and openness. In Lebanon, plays designed for children began appearing in professional theatre venues in the late 1960s. The “Chouchou Children’s Theatre” was among the earliest and most significant initiatives, drawing a strong response from young audiences. In this article, I examine this phenomenon – which emerged spontaneously and without a clear methodology – with particular attention to audience reception.

Taking Cues From Online Learning Offline In The Visual Classroom, Kimberly Datchuk

Art History Pedagogy & Practice

Theories of online learning can inform how academic museums provide a student-centered approach to teaching. Technology has four main advantages for teaching in the museum: it is open-ended, self-paced, collaborative, and empowering. In order to activate the art works and encourage students to contribute their ideas, I have drawn on the best practices of online teaching tools when designing university class visits. The chance to discuss works among themselves enables students to make personal connections to the works and each other. The informal environment of the class visit helps to produce a student-led experience. Encouraging students to ask questions, following …

Contradictionary Lies: A Play Not About Kurt Cobain, Katie R. Wallace

ETD Archive

Contradictionary Lies: A Play Not About Kurt Cobain is a one-act play that follows failed rocker Jimbo as he deals with aging, his divorce, and disappointment. As he and his estranged wife Kelly divvy up their belongings and ultimately their memories, Jimbo is visited by his guardian angel, the ghost of dead rock star Kurt Cobain. Part dark comedy, part docudrama, this play shows how closely man emulates their heroes, and how in the void of depression, music serves an escape.
