La costruzione del concetto di omologia e i vincoli materiali della forma
2016
Il concetto di omologia riveste un ruolo centrale nella biologia teoretica contemporanea perché attorno ad esso e per suo tramite trovano articolazione numerosi progetti di ricerca miranti a ripensare la centralità dell’organismo, i suoi percorsi evolutivi e il significato della sua interazione con la realtà ambientale. La rete di omologie che tesse l’organismo permette di strutturarne e canalizzarne le innovazioni morfologiche e funzionali. Appunto questa componente sistemica rende dunque l’omologia un concetto fondamentale per una considerazione dinamica della forma vivente, come quella cui mira un’estetica che non intenda limitarsi a indagare sull’atteggiamento estetico e sulle produzion…
Celebrating 100 Years of Musical Outreach in Scandinavia
2016
This article outlines the significant, but less investigated historical development of musical outreach; the professional symphony orchestras effort to introduce classical music to new audiences, especially children and adolescents. Many Norwegian symphony orchestras have held public concerts for 100 years and throughout this period they have set up strategic objectives regarding outreach. Through a series of musical examples from various concerts targeting new audiences, the article draws a historical overview of the different concepts of concerts that have developed from the early 1900s till today. In order to better understand the uniqueness of these concerts, and enable us to appreciate…
Percezione e immagine
2006
Il titolo individua un argomento che per la sua vastità, qualunque sia il taglio con cui si decide di affrontarlo, risulta impossibile nelle logiche spazio-temporali di un convegno. È stato affettuosamente “estorto”, ma innanzi tempo, quando foggetto doveva ancora essere concepito. Si sa: le parole hanno la capacità, con piccoli aggiustamenti, di adattarsi a cose diverse e apparire, di volta in volta, persino appropriate, come se fossero state ritagliate proprio per quella o quel- raltra cosa...
«Evo-devo meets the Mind». La questione dell’esperienza estetica e l’evoluzionismo contemporaneo, dall’ipotesi degli adattamenti modulari all’interpr…
2013
Is it achievable to read aesthetic experience as a modular adaptation, and what would be its implication on the image of man, on aesthetics and on evolutionary theory itself? An alternative path is offered by evolutionary morphology, starting from the elaboration of a biologic concept of organism and from the notion of homology of function as a system of interconnections organized in a hierarchy. We deduce the possibility of thinking the peculiar innovation of aesthetic experience in an evolutionary way.
Neuroestetica e fenomenologia della percezione pittorica e musicale
2008
Neuroaesthetics aims at working out a neurobiological theory of aesthetic experience that accounts for neural invariants of perceptual properties fo artworks. In this paper, arguments are proposed that deal with the specification of the intended domain of application, its implications for neurobiological evidence that qualifies as explanans, the contribution that a rigorous phenomenological explanation of the perceptual variety in visual and musical arts can give to an evolutionary account of the cognitive skills underlying arts.

Co łączy "Wędrowca nad morzem chmur" i "Kobietę w oknie" - bohaterów płócien Caspara Davida Friedricha
2020
The author attempts to interpret two paintings by Caspar David Friedrich with the motif of the hero turned with the back to the spectator. The former is one of his most renown works entitled Wanderer above the Sea of Fog also known as Wanderer Above the Mist, the latter, a slightly later work Woman at a Window – the example of a frequently used open widow motif in the iconography of Romanticism. The differences that decide on the meaning of these two canvases – as the author argues – is the gender of the created personas and the place from which they perceive the world.
Aristocracia alada, adalides del rey del Cielo. Ángeles militares en la pintura barroca americana
2016
El presente trabajo aborda el estudio de las imágenes de los ángeles militares en los virreinatos americanos y su interpretación a partir de la función cultural de las imágenes. Para ello se analizan las distintas tipologías visuales del arcángel san Miguel en el virreinato de Nueva España y su uso regiopolítico, la definición beligerante del resto de ángeles en la tradición teológica y la imagen de los conocidos como arcángeles arcabuceros. Identifica la tradición bélica del lenguaje posterior al concilio de Trento y, en el caso de los arcángeles arcabuceros, defiende su vinculación con la fiesta barroca. The present work focuses on the study of images of military angels in American Coloni…
Media and Newspaper Representations
2006
In recent years there has been a large expansion of European scholarship on the representation of men and masculinities in a wide variety of media, including film, television, video, magazines, painting, fine art, music, dance, Internet, photography and advertising (for example, Middleton, 1992; Pedersen et al., 1996; Edwards, 1997; Nixon, 1997; Sterr, 1997; Penttila, 1999; Jokinen, 2000). However, relatively little attention has been given to the mundane medium of daily newspapers. When studying men, the daily press appears to have been frequently taken-for-granted, unlike, say, Hollywood film. Newspapers are literally everyday phenomena; their very ordinariness may mean that they are not …
