Une épistémologie de la peinture depuis l'humanocentrisme de la Renaissance jusqu'à l'univers post-humain actuel

Abstract

Aiming at evidencing the occidental painting epistemology, which has been practiced since the emerging o f the Albertinian perspective to these days, the author presents a huge panel of History of Art, considering the transformation of the artistic and human sensitivity. In the beginning, dwells on the visual and spatial metaphors of distant, of proximate, and of plane, terms that demarcate the notions of representation and presentation, developed from the Renaissance to the late Modernism. Secondly, it examines the Post-modernism through the post-visual notions of hybridism, simulation, crossbreeding, and interdisciplinarity. It is conclude with the current artistic manifestations, which interlace new technologies of information and mass communication (TV, video, cinema) and confront questions such as human and post-human reproduction.
