Organizers: The Croatian
Writers' Society, the theory, culture and visual arts journal Tvrða, and the
Zagreb Centre for Visual Studies.
Over the past ten-odd years, the
interest for the establishment of Visual Culture / Visual Studies as a new
interdisciplinary field of scientific study has surpassed the boundaries of
contemporary visual arts. As W. J. T. Mitchell, one of the leading theoreticians
of visuality and the image in the media age puts it, the new way in which images
are created in the digital age requires a paradigm shift. This visual, pictorial
and cultural turn marks the liberation of the image from the dominant paradigms
in language philosophy and from the prevalent iconology interpretations in art
history. Today, the picture is understood as a medium of communication and as a
contextual field of autoreferential denotation. It is no longer a ‘holy’ picture
or a picture of High Art, but a multiplied and networked world of visuality
which demands its own new grammar, syntax, semiotics and hermeneutics.
