Performing Specimens - Dr Gianna Bouchard - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Performing Specimens - Dr Gianna Bouchard - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Through an examination of examples from performance, museum displays and popular culture that stage the body as a specimen, Performing Specimens maps the relations between these performative acts and the medical practices of collecting, storing and showing specimens in a variety of modes and contexts. Moving from an examination of the medical and historical contexts of specimen display in the museum and the anatomy theatre to contemporary performance, Gianna Bouchard engages with examples from live art, bio-art, popular culture and theatre that stage the performer’s body as a specimen. It examines the ethical relationships involved in these particular moments of display – both in the staging and in how we look at the specimen body. This is a landmark study for those working in the fields of theatre, performance and the medical humanities, with a specific focus on the ethics of display and the ethics of spectatorship, emerging at the intersection of performance and medicine.Among the works and examples considered are 18th-century anatomical waxes from the Museo di Storia Naturale la Specola in Florence, Italy, and their contemporary version in the Bodyworlds exhibition of ‘plastinated’ corpses; organ retention scandals; current legislation, such as the Human Tissue Act 2004; the work of performance company Clod Ensemble and Stein|Holum Projects, the performer and disability activist, Mat Fraser and live artist, Martin O’Brien, alongside visual artists Helen Pynor and Peta Clancy , artists Peggy Shaw and ORLAN.

Early Years Display - Alistair Bryce Clegg - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Early Years Display - Alistair Bryce Clegg - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

From bestselling author Alistair Bryce-Clegg comes an essential book for all Early Years practitioners, focusing on how to make sure your displays are child-led and child-focused. Learning opportunities in the early years need to be child-led and child-centered, and yet many settings still create displays that are by adults and for adults, or which have involved children putting together pre-prepared pieces to form near-identical finished products. Both the EYFS and the Children''s Act ask that children play an active part in decision-making processes, and child-led display offers an excellent way of moving towards these goals.This book gives specific examples of display development which actively involve children, and which encourage ongoing interaction. It also addresses some of the traditional views about display and show how changing these views can lead to display becoming more than just decorative wall covering. Issues of space and budget are also covered, making it appropriate for all practitioners within early years settings. Special reference is made to issues encountered by pre-schools who have to pack everything up at the end of session as well as childminders who have limited display space within their own homes. ''It makes the reader think not just about what to display, but why, ensuring that displays are really meaningful and relevant. Importantly, it shows how to involve children in creating and enjoying displays so they become an integral part of learning'' - Sarah Brew, Parents in Touch

Troy on Display - Dr Abigail Baker - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Troy on Display - Dr Abigail Baker - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

This book explores what visitors saw at the Trojan exhibition and why its contents, including treasure, plain pottery and human remains captured imaginations and divided opinions. When Schliemann’s Trojan collection was first exhibited in 1877, no-one had seen anything like it. Schliemann claimed these objects had been owned by participants in the Trojan War and that they were tangible evidence that Homer’s epics were true. Yet, these objects did not reflect the heroic past imagined by Victorians, and a fierce controversy broke out about the collection’s value and significance.Schliemann invited Londoners to see the very unclassical objects on display as the roots of classical culture. Artists, poets, historians, race theorists, bankers and humourists took up this challenge, but their conclusions were not always to Schliemann’s liking. Troy’s appeal lay in its materiality: visitors could apply analytical techniques (from aesthetic appreciation to skull-measuring) to the collection and draw their own conclusions. This book argues for a deep examination of museum exhibitions as a constructed spatial experience, which can transform how the past is seen. This new angle on a famous archaeological discovery shows the museum as a site of controversy, where hard evidence and wild imagination came together to form a lasting image of Troy.

Medieval Literature on Display - Alexandra Sterling Hellenbrand - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Medieval Literature on Display - Alexandra Sterling Hellenbrand - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

How is the medieval world depicted today? Two German museums serve as case studies for a vibrant, imaginative, and provocative enactment of twenty-first century medievalism: the Museum Wolfram von Eschenbach in Wolframs Eschenbach (1995) and the Nibelung Museum in Worms (2001). Emerging around the turn of the 20th century, the museums explore medieval German literature, cultural memory and local history. As the museums reconstruct and transform medieval narratives for the contemporary audience, they enact the process of medievalism: they reveal how memory, through the lens of the middle ages, shapes modern cultural identity and heritage. Medieval Literature on Display thereby contributes to important conversations about medievalism’s role in constructing and affirming cultural identity, in conceptualizing and finding places for the future of the past.This unique book is vital reading for scholars of medieval literature and historians of medieval Europe, as well as scholars of visual culture and museum studies.

The Professionalization of Window Display in Britain, 1919-1939 - Kerry Meakin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Professionalization of Window Display in Britain, 1919-1939 - Kerry Meakin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

This book provides the first comprehensive history of window display as a practice and profession in Britain during the dynamic period of 1919 to 1939. In recent decades, the disciplines of retail history, business history, design and cultural history have contributed to the study of department stores and other types of shops. However, these studies have only made passing references to window display and its role in retail, society and culture. Kerry Meakin investigates the conditions that enabled window display to become a professional practice during the interwar period, exploring the shift in display styles, developments within education and training, and the international influence on methods and techniques. Piecing together the evidence, visual and written, about people, events, organisations, exhibitions and debates, Meakin provides a critical examination of this vital period of design history, highlighting major display designers and artists. The book reveals the modernist aesthetic developments that influenced high street displays and how they introduced passers-by to modern art movements.
