Symbolist Dualities – Upcoming conference organized by the ALMSD

10 Thursday May 2012

Posted by Marja Lahelma in Conference

≈ Comments Off on Symbolist Dualities – Upcoming conference organized by the ALMSD

The Symbolists often created images and forms that had a dual meaning. Symbolist dualities include, but are not limited to, the sacred and profane and evoke the myriad of depictions of women as saints/demons and creators/destroyers. The idea of duality even informs experiments in which Symbolists combined different media, as they expressed their philosophy through the visual arts, literature, music, and theater. This session will examine Symbolist dualities and how the division of unity was inherent to Symbolist theories regarding the transforming nature of visual art and related disciplines.
