RESUMO O presente trabalho tem por objetivo tratar de uma parte pouco conhecida da obra de Guillaume Apollinaire: a sua crítica de artes. A partir da análise dos textos que o autor publicou neste domínio, evidencia-se a elaboração de uma série de conceitos que lhe possibilitam pensar a pintura e se posicionar no debate artístico francês dos anos iniciais do século XX. Considerando tais conceitos, mostra-se como estes podem ser relacionados com a reflexão do autor sobre a poesia de sua época e, em particular, com a sua própria. O encontro de suas ideias sobre a pintura e sobre a poesia traduz-se em um projeto estético em sentido amplo que, por isso mesmo, produz efeitos em sua obra poética. Com a finalidade de evidenciá-los, analiso alguns poemas para mostrar como a reflexão artística de Apollinaire importa para a compreensão da obra poética. Palavras-chave: Guillaume Apollinaire, Arte moderna, Pintura francesa, Poesia francesa, Pintura e poesia ABSTRACT The present work aims to deal with the little known part of Guillaume Apollinaire’s work: his critique of arts. From the analysis of the texts that the author published in this field, it is evident the elaboration of a series of concepts that allow him to think about paintings and position himself in the French artistic debate of the early year of the Twentieth Century. Considering theses artistic concepts, it is shown how they can also be related to the author’s views of poetry of his time and, in particular, with his own. From this communication of artistic ideas, it is exposed how it translates into na aesthetic project in the broad sense and that, for this very reason, produces effects in his poetic work. With the purpose of showing this, poems are analysed to express Apollinaire’s artistic views matters for the understanding of his poetic work. Keywords: Guillaume Apollinaire, Modern Art, French painting, Frech poetry, Painting and poetry RÉSUMÉ Dans la présente thèse je m’occupe d’une partie peu connue de l’œuvre de Guillaume Apollinaire: sa critique d’art. À partir de l’analyse des textes que l’auteur a publié dans ce domaine, j’expose comment se sont forgés des concepts qu’il utilize pour penser la peinture de ses contemporains et sa façon de s’insérer dans les débats parisiens sur l’art du début du XXème siècle. Em considérant ces concepts-là, j’essaie de montrer comment ils peuvent être liés à la réflexion de l’auteur à propôs de la poésie de son temps et, em particulier, sur la sienne. La recontre de ses idées sur la peiture et de ses idées sur la poésie se traduit par um projet estétique au sens large qui, pour cette raison même, produit des effets dans son travail poétique. Dans le but de montrer comment il possible d’identifier ses idées sur l’art dans son travail poétique, je procéde à une analyse de quelques poèmes choisi de ses deux plus grands recueils: Alcools et Calligrammes.

Durante este tempo, que viu surgir e desaparecer movimentos, escolas, agrupamentos, "phalanges" artísticas, artistas, Apollinaire não foi apenas testemunha dos debates, das batallhas, que tiveram Paris como palco, tanto no campo da pintura quanto no campo da poesia e da cultura de um modo geral, ele foi um dos protagonistas, entre os mais ativos, a se pronunciar sobre as artes produzidas em seu tempo, incluindo a sua. Colaborou com revistas dedicadas às letras e às artes, La Phalange, La Plume, La Revue Blanche, Montjoie!, Lacerba, La Voce, Der Sturm, Volné Sméry; fundou e dirigiu outras, Le Festin d'Ésope, La Revue Immoraliste, Les Lettres Modernes, Les Soirées de Paris, Les Arts à Paris; escreveu para pequenos e grandes jornais como o Guide du Rentier: moniteur des petits capitalistes, ou o L'Intransigeant, sempre movido pela evidente preocupação de divulgar as artes e de difundir ideias artísticas, novas ou antigas. Escreveu sobre a pintura de Matisse e de Picasso, a de Braque, a de Derain, a de Vlaminck; sobre as pinturas de Signac, Seurat e Cross, sobre Delacroix e Ingres. Ao mesmo tempo que destacava a pintura nova, servia-se da passagem escrita por Plinio, o Velho, na sua Histoire Naturelle, que exemplifica a excelência dos artistas Apeles e 3 Protógenes, para destacar que a pintura não precisa de assunto para ser arte. Publicou textos sobre o Salon des Indépendants, onde expunham os artistas da "avant-garde", e sobre o Salon de la Société Nationale de Beaux-Arts, onde era exposta o que ele chamava, sempre com ironia, de "peinture

    Ambrosio – Cubism and the Fourth Dimension To appear in Interdisciplinary Science Reviews, vol. 41, no. 2-3 Please cite from the published version Cubism and the Fourth Dimension Chiara Ambrosio Department of Science and Technology Studies UCL [email protected] Abstract: This article revisits the historiography of Cubism and mathematics, with a particular focus on Pablo Picasso’s uses of geometry at the end of the first decade of the twentieth century. In particular, I consider the artistic appropriation of the concept of the fourth dimension, and its pictorial uses as a conduit for a conceptual reformulation of pictorial space. I investigate Picasso’s distinctive adoption of this geometric framework in relation to one of his 1909 experiments across painting and photography, and advocate the possibility of drawing novel historiographical lessons from Picasso’s work - lessons that bring the historiography of Cubism in a closer dialogue with recent debates in the historiography of science. I conclude with an appeal to consider the continued relevance of this past experiment in art and science when assessing the contemporary drive toward art-science collaborations, and use the case of Cubism and the fourth dimension as a springboard for a critical reflection on the future directions of art-science collaborations. Keywords: Cubism, Fourth Dimension, Art and Science, Interdisciplinarity Introduction “The new painters do not claim to be geometricians any more than painters of the past did. But it is true that geometry is to the plastic arts what grammar is to the art of the writer. Nowadays scientists have gone beyond the three dimensions of Euclidean geometry.

  • Complex Networks Reveal Emergent Interdisciplinary Knowledge in Wikipedia ✉ Gustavo A
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-021-00801-1 OPEN Complex networks reveal emergent interdisciplinary knowledge in Wikipedia ✉ Gustavo A. Schwartz 1,2 In the last 2 decades, a great amount of work has been done on data mining and knowledge discovery using complex networks. These works have provided insightful information about the structure and evolution of scientific activity, as well as important biomedical discoveries. 1234567890():,; However, interdisciplinary knowledge discovery, including disciplines other than science, is more complicated to implement because most of the available knowledge is not indexed. Here, a new method is presented for mining Wikipedia to unveil implicit interdisciplinary knowledge to map and understand how different disciplines (art, science, literature) are related to and interact with each other. Furthermore, the formalism of complex networks allows us to characterise both individual and collective behaviour of the different elements (people, ideas, works) within each discipline and among them. The results obtained agree with well-established interdisciplinary knowledge and show the ability of this method to boost quantitative studies. Note that relevant elements in different disciplines that rarely directly refer to each other may nonetheless have many implicit connections that impart them and their relationship with new meaning. Owing to the large number of available works and to the absence of cross-references among different disciplines, tracking these connections can be challenging. This approach aims to bridge this gap between the large amount of reported knowledge and the limited human capacity to find subtle connections and make sense of them. 1 Centro de Física de Materiales (CSIC-UPV/EHU)—Materials Physics Center (MPC), San Sebastian, Gipuzkoa, Spain.

    Studia theodisca ISSN 2385-2917 Maurizio Pirro (Bari) «Wenn sich nach dem Werther die Leute totschießen, so ist das Buch gut; wenn sie auf andere schießen, besser»* L’arte come pratica di costruzione del futuro in Ludwig Rubiner Abstract Both as essay writer and poet Ludwig Rubiner (1881-1920) focuses on art as a revolution- ary practice. He conceives critical understanding of reality as a first step in a radical change of social conditions, which can be seen as the result of an artist’s specific attitude in evoking new worlds. This implies that only a non-realistic art can be politically successful, because it refers to a future horizon without restricting itself to describing the political situation of the time. In this paper, I analyze Rubiner’s strongly utopic art concept involving some typical categories of expressionistic literature like “Geist”, “Gemeinschaft”, “Katastrophe”. Bisognerà decidersi a emancipare una volta per tutte la storiografia della “Klassische Moderne” dall’alternativa tra simbolismo ed espressionismo. Al di là di alcuni comuni presupposti poetologici (primo fra tutti l’idea che le pratiche estetiche abbiano la funzione di ricucire la frattura tra il mondo e le forme della sua percezione, riassorbendo attraverso complessi rituali di invenzione lo spazio vuoto tra la superficie della realtà e il livello di verità profonda nascosto sotto quella superficie), è la natura stessa del campo let- terario di lingua tedesca nel primo ventennio del Novecento a rendere vana e inservibile una divisione netta tra i due movimenti. Distinguere quanto nel- l’opera di un nutrito gruppo di scrittori attivi sulla soglia della Prima guerra mondiale (Benn, Stadler, Hoddis, Trakl, Heym, Blass, Werfel, Schickele, per nominare soltanto i lirici) si collochi sotto l’influenza di una poetica “con- servativa”, destinata a semantizzare l’esistente tramite una fitta rete di cor- rispondenze analogiche evocate dalla parola magica del poeta, da quanto * L’espressione ricorre nel saggio Untertan.

An outgrowth of the n-dimensional geom- etries developed in the nineteenth century, the concept predated the definition of time as the fourth dimension by Minkowski and Einstein in relativity theory. Only the popularization of relativity theory after 1919 brought an end to the widespread public fascination with the supra-sensible fourth dimension between the 1880s and 1920s. Ini- tially popularized by figures such as E. A. Abbott, Charles Howard Hin- ton, Claude Bragdon, and P. D. Ouspensky (as well as science-fiction writers), the fourth dimension was a multivalent term with associa- tions ranging from science, including X-rays and the ether of space, to idealist philosophy and mystical “cosmic consciousness.” This essay focuses on the differing approaches to higher spatial dimensions in the cubism of Pablo Picasso and Juan Gris, the suprematism of Ka- zimir Malevich, and The Large Glass project of Marcel Duchamp in the early twentieth century.
