SITAC History vs Histories (second part: Art history and politics)

This panel debates the political nature of history in different ways: the tension between local or marginal histories and their validation or confrontation before a hegemonic and / or "unified" history; the political agenda as an influence of the historical drama of art (the monument or the museum, the official history vs. alternative history, sensationalism and / or historical mystification). Existing historical models will also be examined and the need to create histories of art - still unwritten - corresponding to particular places and periods will be discussed.
