Networks: Textile Arts and Textility in a Transcultural Perspective (4th to 17th Centuries)

网络是与苏黎世大学联合研究项目的重要组成部分。它的目的是研究纺织品的迁移，包括原材料、技术和图案，S和S在其他媒体上的代表，从中国到地中海，从古代晚期到现代早期。电视网将在一系列案例研究中分析纺织品的意义或功能的跨文化转变。该项目想要重建纺织品äS文化互动代理人的角色：在大多数亚洲和地中海社会，纺织品是一种易于运输和高评价的媒介，纺织品是阐述跨文化艺术语言的特权领域。通过与苏黎世的大力合作，网络公司希望让纺织品在艺术史上发挥应有的作用，特别是在这个领域向全球开放的时刻。该项目将暗示拜占庭艺术史、伊斯兰艺术史、东亚艺术史和西方艺术史之间的激烈对话。它将研究纺织品的物质性、装饰性和图形的美学，包括框架、碎片化和系列性的概念，以及S和S的表演性或运动性。它将集中于美学与知识体系以及纺织品、包裹身体和表达空间的宗教、政治或家庭功能的相互交织。在“文本”的概念下，网络最终将探索纺织媒体？S是文本或“物质或”世界“的隐喻，以及”纹理“的典范，涉及多种方式，交织和布局，例如在城市化中。

NETWORKS is pari of a joint research project with the University of Zürich. Its aim is to study the migration of textiles, including raw materials, techniques and patterns, äs well äs their representation in other media, from China to the Mediterranean, from Late Antiquity to the early Modern period. NETWORKS will analyze the transcultural shift in meaning or function of textiles, in a series of case studies. The project wants to reconstruct the role of textiles äs agents of cultural interaction: a medium of easy transportability and high estimation in most of Asian and Mediterranean societies, textiles were a privileged field for the elaboration of cross-cultural artistic languages. In strong collaboration with Zürich, NETWORKS wants to give textiles the role in art history they deserve, especially in a moment when the field opens to a global horizon. The project will suggest an intense dialogue among Byzantine, Islamic, East Asian, and Western art histories. It will study the aesthetics of textiles regarding their materiality, their Ornaments and figurations, including notions of framing, fragmentation and seriality, äs well äs their performativity or motility. It will concentrate on the intertwining of aesthetics with Systems of knowledge and religious, political or domestic functions of textiles, wrapping bodies and articulating spaces. Under the notion of "textility", NETWORKS will finally explore textile media äs a model for texts or a metaphor of "matter or "world", and of "texture", relating to multiple ways of, interlacing and lay-out, forexample in urbanism.
