Translation as artistic communication in the aesthetics of migration: From nonfiction to the visual arts
2017
AbstractIn an increasingly globalized and digitalized world, where the advancement of technologies and media constructions oversimplify and manipulate public beliefs and shared knowledge, the artistic sector seems to provide new networks of solidarity, collaboration and interaction that challenge a world dominated by conflicts and cultural shocks. Against this backdrop, acts of translation within the arts bear witness to humanity and become the ultimate ground for subjective expression and fundamental reflections upon individualist attitudes against migration issues. By putting emphasis on the role of translation in its political transfer of migration into the arts, this investigation draws…
“De la mà de un florentí” y “De mestre Marçal”. Los dibujos del pintor valenciano Joan Moreno (1382-1448) y el cuaderno de los Uffizi
2020
A partir de la localización del testamento, inventario de bienes y almonedas posteriores tras el fallecimiento del pintor Joan Moreno en la ciudad de Valencia en 1448, se analiza la importancia del dibujo en los talleres del gótico internacional. La mención específica de dibujos del alemán Marçal de Sas (†1410) y de un florentino que podría ser Gherardo Starnina (c. 1354-1409-13) ofrece la posibilidad de analizar esta documentación en relación con el cuaderno de dibujos de los Uffizi (inv. 2264F-2281F, 18304F-18306F, 18324). Un repertorio de dibujos que se considera realizado en torno a los años 1400 en la ciudad de Valencia y que responde precisamente a las dos corrientes más importantes s…
The impact of emotions in immersive journalism
2021
One of the starting motivations for developing the very concept and practice of immersive journalism was concern about the audiences’ general apathy toward news reporting. As Nonny de la Peña et al. (2010, 298) stated in their seminal paper, “An important role of immersive journalism could be to reinstitute the audience’s emotional involvement in current events”. As a documentarist, de la Peña was more familiar with “emotional literacy” than an average news reporter, for example (see Pantti 2010, 176). peerReviewed

The Influence of the Lotus Flower Theme on the Perception Perception of Contemporary Urban Architecture
2021
We live in the visual culture times, when images continuously and daily are transferring some information. A visual message is also an indispensable element of architecture, in the semantic layer as an aesthetic value, sometimes fulfilling a narrative function by means of a symbol, which is an international visual code. Most of the symbols, hidden in painting, sculpture, or architecture, are elements of nature. The article discusses examples of architecture whose form is based on a lotus flower. Unification of urban landscapes leads to a decrease in the value of aesthetic impressions; therefore, the unique architecture builds the unique identity of the place.
The Concept of the Oceanic Feeling in Artistic Creativity and in the Analysis of Visual Artworks
2015
For several decades now, psychoanalytically oriented writers on art have used the concept of the oceanic feeling to designate feelings of oneness, limitlessness, and mania in artistic creativity and aesthetic experiencing. In this article, I examine critically the most influential account of the oceanic feeling in aesthetics, provided by art pedagogue and art critic Anton Ehrenzweig. Following his points of emphasis, I elaborate on the structural, perceptual, and affective aspects of oceanic states of mind. To illuminate further some of the central premises and problems of Ehrenzweig’s account, I assess two separate analyses of visual artworks that have incorporated his ideas. To conclude, …
Performative Archives: The Visual Poetry of bpNichol and Derek Beaulieu
2019
International audience; La performance de l’archive dans la poésie visuelle de bpNichol et Derek Beaulieu”En s’adonnant à la dimension matérielle de l’écriture, la poésie visuelle s’engage dans une voie exploratrice qui pense ensemble matériau, écriture et mémoire. La figure de l’archive se decline au sens métaphorique pour dire cette relation. Elle traverse la tradition poétique en suivant la trace des formes adoptées par les divers supports de l’écrit. Si la poésie visuelle peut se dire archive de l’expérience scripturale, ses inscriptions sont le reflet du flux qui caractérise une esthétique et un environnement conditionnés de maniére croissante par des supports technologiques. Cet artic…
Jaunrades darba prezentēšanas prasmes nozīme un attīstīšana vizuālās mākslas priekšmetā 4.klašu grupā
2022
Diplomdarbā pētāmā problēma: 4. klases skolēniem grūtības sagādā jaunrades darba prezentēšana. Prezentēšanas prasme skolēniem nav iepriekš attīstīta, taču “Skola 2030” plānotajos sasniedzamajos rezultātos norādīts, ka skolēnam ir jāprot pastāstīt par darba procesu, izaicinājumiem un idejas rašanos. Diplomdarba mērķis bija izpētīt prezentēšanas prasmju nozīmi 4.klašu skolēniem un izstrādāt ieteikumus, kurus izmantojot iespējams attīstīt prezentēšanas prasmi. Darba teorētiskajā daļā tika apkopota literatūra par prezentēšanas prasmi un veiksmīgu publisko runu. Tika pētīta arī pašvērtēšanas veikšanas saistība ar prezentēšanas kvalitāti. Darba otrajā daļā ir apkopotas dažādas metodes prezentēšan…
From ‘no dogs here!’ to ‘beware of the dog!’ : restricting dog signs as a reflection of social norms
2019
Signs in public space reflect ‘normalcy’ in a community. The authors ask what restricting signs tell us about a society? In order to explore the system and variation in the ways dog signs manifest different norms and control, they compare two different data sets: dog signs in a Northern European town, Jyväskylä in Finland, and two Eastern European villages in Romania. They apply a qualitative methodology based on visual communication, geosemiotics and linguistic landscape studies. The focus of the article is on the resources of addressing and the visual semiotics of the image. The investigated communities seem to create a complementary distribution of what they regulate that is also displa…
Chemical composition and biological activity of the essential oil of Ballota hispanica (L.) Benth. growing wild in Sicily
2015
Ballota L. comprises several relevant species largely used for their excellent therapeutic properties. Ballota hispanica (L.) Benth. is widely used in herbal medicine, and it is sold in herbalist shops for its sedative and antispasmodic properties. Considering its traditional medicinal use and the lack of scientific studies on the volatile components of this species as well as on its biological activities, in this study the chemical composition of the essential oil from aerial parts of B. hispanica, collected in Sicily, was evaluated by gas chromatography and gas chromatographyâmass spectrometry. α-Elemol was the most abundant component of the oil (10.9%), followed by α-ylangene (8.5%),…
