Helena Niemirowska Syrkus: Graphic analysis of the ‘House of Dr Nelken in Warsaw’
2017
In 1920s and 1930s, Warsaw was becoming one of the hubs of propagation of the new architecture, thanks to the geographical contiguity with the Weimar Republic, which allowed the formation of young minds aimed at a blending of architecture, art and music. In this cultural context, a young Helena Niemirowska Syrkus supported the idea that urban planning and architecture, conceived as art forms, had to target at the definition of a language able of expressing the great revolutionary step achieved in the social, economic and political life of that time, through new configurations. According to Helena Niemirowska, who shared the avant-garde thesis, to become an artist the modern architect had to…
La revolución olvidada : aspectos lingüísticos de una pérdida y recuperación. Reflexiones sobre un ensayo de Lucio Russo
2012
Este artículo propone algunas reflexiones sobre la dimensión lingüística del conocimiento científico, a partir de la lectura del estimulante ensayo de Lucio Russo “La rivoluzione dimenticata”, casi desconocido en España no obstante su ya largo recorrido editorial y las recensiones en varios países, tanto en revistas de ciencia, e historia, como de filosofía y cultura clásica. La tesis que el ensayo plantea es que esa singularidad que conocemos como ciencia moderna no sucedió por primera vez en la historia con Copérnico, Galileo, Kepler o Newton en los siglos XVI y XVII, sino que se originó entre los siglos IV a II a.C., en Alejandría y otras ciudades orientales. El desarrollo científico y t…
Vieras minä : abjekti Helene Schjerfbeckin ja Åke Mattaksen omakuvissa
2015
Tässä tutkielmassa käsittelen Helene Schjerfbeckin ja Åke Mattaksen omakuvia Julia Kristevan abjekti-käsitteestä muodostamani tulkinnan kautta. Abjekti liittyy yksilön psyyken kehityksessä primäärinarsismiksi nimettyyn vaiheeseen, jossa subjekti ei vielä ole täysin eriytynyt itsenäiseksi. Abjekti on elementti, joka säilyy psyyken rakenteessa toisaalta ylläpitäen sen rajoja, toisaalta häiriten niitä. Abjektin läsnäolosta kertoo esimerkiksi se sanaton kauhu, jota koemme kohdatessamme jotakin mädäntynyttä. Postmoderni käsitys minuudesta siis korostaa sen ikuista liikettä. Kristeva esittää, että abjekti on tuon liikkeen taustalla. Tässä tutkielmassa muodostan oman …
Geomorphology and surface geology of Mount St. Helens volcano
2020
Mount St. Helens is a stratovolcano of the Cascadia volcanic arc well known worldwide for its volcanic collapse and eruption in 1980, which caused considerable destruction and changed the geomorphology of the volcano and of a considerable portion of its surroundings. This paper presents a geomorphology and surface-geology map of both the wider Mount St. Helens, Washington (USA), at the 1:50,000 scale, and of its crater, at the 1:25,000 scale. The map is obtained from the interpretation of two high-resolution, air-borne acquired, digital terrain models, LiDAR dataset, combined with Google Earth imaging, geological information and field surveys. The geomorphology of the area is largely domina…

Indian Yellow and Titanium White : A Material-centred Perspective on the Pigments Used by Artists Helene Schjerfbeck and Akseli Gallen-Kallela in the…
2022
This article presents the results of material studies focused on identifying and comparing the contents of the pigment palettes of two notable Finnish painters, Helene Schjerfbeck (1862–1946) and Akseli Gallen-Kallela (1865–1931). The research methods used comprise energydispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF) and polarised light microscopy (PLM). In addition, certain pigments have been identified in colour areas of the works using specular reflection FT-infrared spectrometry (FTIR) and Raman spectrometry. To support the results gathered using scientific analytical methods, archival research has been conducted in order to find notes and references to the pigments made by the arti…
