Both the Macarian concept of Romanization of sacred singing, as well as Anton Pann’s achievements in this domain, have a certain artistic and instructive value and, in their time, were affirmed as attitudes and models to follow. At the same time, the current Byzantinistics insists on the limited character of these contributions, showing that the two precursors only referred to Constantinopolitan singing after 1814 and did not capitalize on the old autochthonous liturgical music, did not take into account the psalter singing from villages, close to the folkloric matrix.

However, the evocation of this event that has already become history served as the pre/subtext of the following dramatic texts: Saxofonul cu frunze roşii/Saxophone with red leaves by Val Butnaru, staged at ”Luceafărul” Theater (1998); the plays by C. Cheianu Noi/We, staged at ”Luceafărul” Theater (1994), and Ţara asta a uitat de Noi…/This country has forgotten us…, at the National Theater ”Satiricus I. L.

Of an overwhelming topicality, these dramatic works are not only chronicles, but also open files in which the characters play the role of participants, witnesses, prosecutors, lawyers, executors. Thus, these plays are a true history lesson provoking the touching of sensitive chords and reviving the memory of present and future generations.","PeriodicalId":55785,"journal":{"name":"Arta","volume":"31 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139025824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article discusses the phenomenon of crystallization of the personal Myth of the Carpathians reintegrated as a philosophical-aesthetic and genuine-stylistic binder, which interpenetrates all the poetic and cinematic creation of the artist. This myth of the filmmaker’s myths simultaneously contains the cardiography of the turbulent history of the nation, but also of the personal life of the filmmaker-orphaned by his father and by both homelands of his childhood, who took refuge in the catharsis of the splendors of the Carpathians, bringing back in his inspired films the estranged Bucovina into a spiritual, aesthetic, civic whole. In the paper, Emil Loteanu’s creation is related to the sacred monsters of the world film, especially O. Welles, F. Fellini, I. Bergman, A. Tarkovski, who also through their personal myths revealed their unconscious personality to mankind, but also the hierarchies of spiritual values of world images.","PeriodicalId":55785,"journal":{"name":"Arta","volume":"450 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139026174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through the study of local dance cultures, a social structure is observable that is held together by gendered and generationally defined norms, rules, and obligations. This makes dancing a socially defined collective activity in rural communities in Moldavia, Romania.

The city is perceived as a scenic place. A true phantasmagorical space, the urban space dramatizes the inhabitants who are transformed, in turn, into actors. Paris, in the 19th century, was not only the place of famous world exhibitions, it became itself an object of exhibition, thus spreading its influence over people and things. All the French novelists of the 19th century experienced theatrical training, having launched certain dramatic projects (Balzac, Baudelaire, Flaubert, Zola, Daudet, Flaubert, and Goncourt). The novel of the studied period has a visible organization, dramatic pattern, and vision associated with a time that presupposes a generalized dramatization of society. The theatrical metaphor appears frequently in the 19th century novel to denounce the hypocrisy of society which hides dubious things under honest appearances. This is the leitmotif of the realist/naturalist novel, which aims at revealing and develop realities in profusion. Social relations, places, behaviors are placed under the sign of appearance, of the mask. The itinerary of the characters consists in learning the scenic regularities behind the scenes of the sets, as well as the techniques, which precede the performance. The success of the hero is largely based on his skills to play the role. The drama of the novel speaks of the fragile boundary between genres in the 19th century and characterizes the new poetics of the novel.","PeriodicalId":55785,"journal":{"name":"Arta","volume":"87 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138992597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Manipulation is part of their essence. Distortions in the message arise from a shift in attention from reality as such to how it’s seen by others or who and how it’s represented. The objective vision is replaced by a presentation of the vision of others in visual media. This opens up the possibility of manipulation and becomes the reason for the creation of visual falsifications. Modernity has become the era of post-truth. Visual media are increasingly shifting towards total falsification with the development of digital technologies, artificial intelligence. The generated image turns out to be more real and reliable than reality itself. This paper uses the classification of visual media images based on how they are created. An attempt is made to identify the causes of distortions in the representation of reality at different stages of the development of visual media. The article analyzes how the technologies of creating visual images affect the development of manipulative and falsifying practices that undermine the credibility of the visual message.","PeriodicalId":55785,"journal":{"name":"Arta","volume":"383 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139022224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The natural processes of supplementing the creative potential with representatives of the new generations of plastic artists had a beneficial influence on the diversification of the thematic repertoire, the syntactic register and the methods of technological realization of textile works. As a result of some creative morphological-syntactic and technological experiments undertaken by plastic artists, the works of textile art of the examined period were endowed with aesthetic expressions and messages that mirror the areas of artistic interest and themes towards which the creators directed their attention at the time. The aesthetic values promoted by the smooth weaving technology, widely practiced by plastic artists in the previous decades, were accompanied in a new way by values coming from the symbiosis of the mentioned technology with the technique of felting, embroidery and crocheting, as a result of which, the mixed techniques of creating the image found a prominent plastic promotion in the period in question. In turn, the semantic allure generated by the textile works in the given period was ensured, on the one hand, by the stylistic-compositional, textural and chromatic way of creating the image and, on the other hand, by the associative values and the metaphorical-symbolic substrate of the work .","PeriodicalId":55785,"journal":{"name":"Arta","volume":"69 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139345426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His drawings and sketches, which reflect the world of animals, are especially interesting and convincing in terms of their plasticity. Two characteristics of V.A. Vatagin’s drawings emerge clearly: the harmonious compositional distribution of images on the sheet and the sketches made in a fluid line, with thickening and thinning, as well as the use of tone. V.A. Vatagin positions the appearances of animals on the same level with a person’s, assigning them the same palette of emotions. Thus, the initial period of development of the animalistic genre in the works of the sculptors of the Moldavian SSR, Naum Epelbaum and Nikolae Gabzulin, coincides with the “majestic decline” of the creativity of Vasilii Alexeevich Vatagin, and this fact suggests the familiarization of Moldavian sculptors with his creative activity. The various plastic techniques used by the sculptor V.A. Vatagin, who oscillated between realism and stylization, led to a great stylistic diversity in his creativity. His manner of modeling and study from nature became classic and were taken over by artists of the USSR, and nowadays by other world artists. The contribution of the Russian sculptor V. A.
