ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The landscape paintings in our museums, the engravings in old books, but also the photographs of today's landscapes, can be found on our telephone or computer screens. How does this change our relationship with landscapes? Are landscapes becoming closer, in these images at our fingertips? Do their sometimes radical transformations strike us more, when we access a whole series of photographs of the same landscape? Aren't we also witnessing, with online images, a new formatting in the representation of landscapes?
We will attempt to answer these questions by presenting various digital devices, including photographic landscape observatories, on the occasion of the publication of the book Representing landscapes yesterday and today. Approches sensibles et numériques (late 2019, Presses Universitaires Savoie Mont Blanc, LLSETI, collection "Patrimoines", edited by Dominique Pety, Hélène Schmutz and Pascal Bouvier).
