L'an 1500 dans l'art de l'Europe du Nord

Perspective. La revue de l'INHA, 2006

In 2004, a number of events and exhibitions devoted to the arts in France around the year 1400 highlighted the rich diversity of current research in this area. Recent studies have challenged the validity of the critical term “International Gothic”, and the essentially stylistic approach upon which it is founded. Researchers have addressed a number of new questions, which have profoundly reshaped our knowledge of certain areas of artistic production, notably precious metalwork. The religious, political or ideological functions of objects from this period are now more readily taken into account. Researchers have taken a subtler, more differentiated approach to the study of relationships between artists and their patrons. Alongside the widely recognized importance of royal or aristocratic patrons, new studies highlight the roles played by women, members of the royal court, and prelates, in the commissioning process. We also have a far better understanding of the complex structures and conditions affecting artists working in both courtly and civic contexts in France. Further research is needed to compare these with the conditions that prevailed in other European countries, and to achieve a more precise definition of the particular dynamics affecting French art during this period. Comparative studies of this type would also help us to analyze the dissemination of French designs and models, and to re-examine the question of international artistic exchanges around the year 1400, in a new light.

We highlight the close relationship between the languages and art, in the 1470–1500 period. But to create new tools in the history of art one schould know the language theories of the dates. It is especially important to use only the vocabulary that existed when a work of art is produced. In our approach we focus on hybrid creatures, beings composed of various elements, which allow us to make the connection with the linguistic when the words are composed of different lexemes and concepts.
