Le Vin & la Musique. Accords et désaccords
2018
International audience; Bacchus est le dieu de l'ivresse, des plaisirs sensuels, de la fertilité comme de l'inspiration. Son cortège est animé par des satyres et des ménades dont les activités sont associées à la danse, à l'amour et la musique. L'allégorie de la musique est elle aussi fréquemment associée à l'amour, à la sensualité et au vin. Depuis l'Antiquité, cette double inspiration mythique et symbolique est au coeur d'innombrables oeuvres plastiques et visuelles, mais aussi d'objets utilitaires au décor festif, d'oeuvres musicales ou chorégraphiques et d'instruments de musique. À toutes les époques, la fête, le banquet et la taverne ont associé le vin et la musique dans tous les milie…

Living autobiographically: Concepts of aging and artistic expression in painting and modern dance.
2016
This article discusses the ways in which artists have incorporated or failed to incorporate the aging process of their bodies into their art. Using Russian ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov and the French painter Claude Monet as cases in point, we explore situations in which physical changes brought about by aging compromises artists' ability to engage with their artistic medium. Connecting Monet's oeuvre and Baryshnikov's dance performances to life writing accounts, we draw on John Paul Eakin's concept of "living autobiographically": In this vein, life writing research does not only have to take into account concepts of identity as they emerge from life writing narratives, but it also need…
Women’s Foot Health–Related Quality of Life in Ballet Dancers and Nondancers
2020
Background: Prevalence and severity of symptoms related to muscle and joint pain seem to be high in most dancers. Hypothesis: There will be a worse quality of life related to foot health for ballet dancers compared with nondancers. Study Design: Case-control study. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Methods: A sample of 156 women was recruited from a clinic of podiatric medicine and surgery. Self-reported data were measured by the Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ), which has 33 questions that assess 8 health domains of the feet and general health, namely, foot pain, foot function, general foot health, footwear, general health, physical activity, social capacity, and vigor. Results: Statistic…
Participation Profiles and Socialisation into Dance Among Non‐Professional Dancers
1997
Abstract The study was designed to determine how individuals become socialised into folk, competitive ballroom, ballet and modern dance through an investigation of background variables, the influence of significant others and the participation profiles of dancers, and the identification of those socialization and involvement variables that best discriminate among different groups of dancers. The subjects were 308 adolescent and adult dancers of at least 16 years of age who had pursued their main dance form for a minimum of three years. The data were collected by questionnaire, supplemented with some additional data gathered through personal interviews. Differences between the four dance gro…
Comparison of Body Composition and Energy Intake of Young Female Ballet Dancers and Ordinary School Girls
2017
Abstract The aim of this study is to assess body fat level, energy and nutrient intake of adolescent ballet dancers and to compare these results with those of adolescents from ordinary school. Participants included 39 ballet dancers and 70 adolescents from ordinary school. Body composition was measured using a multi-frequency 8-polar bioelectrical impedance leg-to-hand analyser (X-Scan Plus II, Korea). Dietary intakes were assessed using a three-day estimated food record. Nutritional intake was calculated using the Nutri Survey software. Ballet dancers were slightly shorter, lighter, with less fat and fat-free mass compared to girls from ordinary school. 51.3% (95% CI 35.59 to 66.97) of bal…
Intra- and inter-foot coordination in quiet standing: footwear and posture effects.
2012
Intra-foot coordination between center of pressure (COP) of the ball and heel of the foot in single leg standing and inter-foot coordination of the right and left foot during bipedal stance was examined as a function of postural stance (two legs, one leg, and toe postures), footwear (barefoot, different area based high heel shoes) and postural training (ballet group and regular exercising group). Young adult females performed three 20s trials in each postural condition. In general, the traditional variability measures of COPnet motion increased under the less stable postural support conditions and ballet dancers had better balance in single leg standing. Regularity analysis revealed a negat…
El Martiri de San Bernat, Mària i Gràcia del MUMA. Un posible Vicente Castelló y Amat
2021
El Martiri de Sant Bernat, María i Gràcia, propiedad del Museu Municipal d’Alzira (MUMA), es un óleo sobre lienzo de gran formato que históricamente se ha atribuido a Bernardo López o a Salvador Maella y que está datado entre finales del siglo XVIII y principios del XIX. No obstante, existe una serie de características plásticas que no corresponden a estos pintores. El estudio estilístico realizado en este trabajo, junto con la consulta bibliográfica de la pintura neoclásica española, y el análisis comparativo de las diferentes obras de todos los posibles autores de la pieza, propone a Vicente Castelló y Amat como autor de la obra de Alzira, respaldado, además, por la inscripción “V.C” del …
