Schaffende Hände: Medialisierungen von künstlerischer Arbeit
»Schaffende Hände« (creative hands) is a series of cultural films in which art historian Hans Cürlis portrayed artists at work from the 1920s onward. The documentaries promise to provide an undisguised view of the creation of paintings and sculptures, making visible what is hidden from view in the finished work. Taking this interest in "creation" as its starting point, this book spans the modern period to the present day. It is dedicated to the question of how artistic work is staged, documented and didactically presented, and how the role of the artist’s hand is determined by varying relationships between mental and manual labor.
4D: Dimensionen | Disziplinen | Digitalität | Daten
20 years ago, prometheus was launched as a distributed digital image archive for art history and image-based disciplines, marking a fundamental step for the digital transformation in the respective subjects. Since then, the contours of a future digitally supported science have become clearer. The Digital Humanities are expanding the methodological field of the humanities, interdisciplinary collaboration to answer research questions is increasingly gaining acceptance, and the establishment of a National Research Data Infrastructure is laying the foundations for a science system in transition.
The 2021 anniversary conference discussed the transformation of the sciences under four perspectives (4D) and deliberately went beyond the subject boundaries of art history.
In this publication, the contributions appear successively. They are edited, have the final layout and are included unchanged in the full volume. Each early-view article receives a persistent DOI and is thus fully citable; only no pages can be given yet. Only when all articles are available will they be given page numbers. Please use the citation recommendation given in the PDF for the Early View. In addition to the e-book (PDF), a print edition will also be published.
