cz /

Sweet Sixties: Avant-gardes in the shadows of the Cold War

lectures and conference / sweet 60s / mumok, Vienna / at /


MODERNITIES TRANSMOGRIFIED
In the 1960s, the landscapes and cities of protectorates and former colonies from india to the Maghreb, from the Soviet Republics to the new states in the Southern hemisphere were replete with the spirit and forms of modernity; forms that transmogrify and then dissolve into the thin air of the vernacular. The star-maps that are used to survey these artificial worlds often serve to navigate the boundaries between private and public domains.

Andreas Böhn: Cultural Memory and Nostalgia: Media, Technology and the Arts

cz /

The term ‘nostalgia’ is composed of the greek words νόστος (returning home) and άλγος (pain). In its original usage the term referred to a pathological form of homesickness. Initially, the nostalgic point of reference signified a place to which to return is principally possible. Yet, in the last third of the 20th century the meaning of the term began to shift more and more towards a temporal perception: Today, nostalgia is understood as a longing for an idealized or even glorified past, often in commodified form. Consequently, a return proper has become impossible, which is why, according to Svetlana Boym, modern nostalgia has developed two different modi operandi: restorative and reflective nostalgia.
