SUMMARY:Reconsidering the Generation of the 1930s: The Roots and Breadth of Greek Modernism Conference
DESCRIPTION:Reconsidering the Generation of the 1930s: The Roots and Breadth of Greek Modernism Conference \nSaturday\, November 18\, 2023\n314 Royce Hall\, UCLA\n10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. \nConference organized by Sharon Gerstel (UCLA) and Sofia Pitouli (UCLA) \nWelcome remarks by The Honorable Ioannis Stamatekos\, Consul General of Greece in Los Angeles. \nSpeakers: \nAreti Adamopoulou\, Professor of Art History\, University of Ioannina\nAbstract title: The “Generation of the 1930s” in Art: Cold War Cultural Politics and Modern Painting in Greece \nGeorge Baker\, Professor of Art History\, UCLA\nAbstract title: Yannis Tsarouchis and Anachronic Modernism: Lateness\, Counter-Memory\, and the Redefinition of the Human \nNikos Daskalothanassis\, Professor of Modern and Contemporary Art History\, Athens School of Fine Arts\nAbstract title: Theophilos and the Generation of the ’30s (again) \nPolina Kosmadaki\, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art\, The Benaki Museum\nAbstract title: Concepts of Artistic “Greekness” in the Post-Junta Period: The Case of the Exhibition of Tsarouchis\, Ghika\, Kontoglou\, Theofilos in the Greek Month in London\, 1975 \nSofia Pitouli\, Ph.D. Candidate in Byzantine Art\, UCLA\nAbstract title: Toward Greekness: Dimitris Pikionis’ Architectural Fantasies of Japan \nPoppy Sfakianaki\, Postdoctoral Researcher\, Institute for Mediterranean Studies/FORTH\nAbstract title: Greek Modern Art in Interwar Paris: Networks Rather Than a Generation \nConference Description:\nThis conference challenges the attribution of the term “Generation of the 1930s” (Γενιά του ’30) to artists and writers active during the 1930s and the following decades. The term initially addressed a group of writers and poets bound by similar experiences and socio-historical backgrounds. However\, between 1948-50\, artists were also clustered under the term\, which\nliterati employed regularly––and still do––in scholarship. These artists were credited with the creation of modernism in Greece\, which was inspired by Western European movements but was also deeply rooted in history\, particularly in Orthodox Byzantium. The conference explores the various poles of artistic inventiveness during the 1930s but also examines the work of these artists and writers throughout the twentieth century\, prompting us to conceive their work diachronically rather than within the confines of a single decade. Given the socio-political circumstances of the nineteenth century in Greece (the traumatic changes resulting from the Greco-Turkish war\, the ensuing population exchange\, the collapse of the Megali Idea\, the dramatic upheavals of interwar Greece\, the Metaxas dictatorship\, and the Junta regime)\, the conference examines transnational and cosmopolitan orientations within Greek modernism and the ways in which these intertwined with narratives of nationality and folklore. \nGreek Modernism Conference Schedule \nAttendance is free and open to the public. Lunch is not included.  \nThis conference will not be recorded or livestreamed. \nThis program is made possible thanks to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and is held under the auspices of the Consulate General of Greece in Los Angeles. \nGefyra (Bridge) is a collaborative program established by the UCLA SNF Center for the Study of Hellenic Culture and the SNF Centre for Hellenic Studies at Simon Fraser University with support from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF). Gefyra’s mission is to connect students\, faculty\, and communities along the West Coast of North America with Greek scholars\, artists\, and other creators\, so that they can together explore expansive and imaginative approaches to Greek culture and knowledge production. The program additionally supports academic conferences and cultural projects that bridge the West Coast and Greece. \nThank you to our co-sponsors!\n \n \n \nParking for Royce Hall is available in Parking Structure 5 located at: 302 Charles E Young Dr N\, Westwood\, Los Angeles\, CA 90095. Parking Structure 5  is accessible from Royce Drive\, south of Sunset Boulevard\, and west of Hilgard Ave. (in the northeast section of the campus). \nNo parking attendants will be on-site at the parking structure\, and Pay-By-Space/Visitor Parking is extremely limited in this lot\, so we highly encourage you to purchase a parking permit in advance: \n\n\n\nTo save time\, you may purchase your parking permit for $15 in advance using Bruin ePermit: https://bruinepermit.t2hosted.com/pnw2/selectevent.aspx.

SUMMARY:Envisioning the Greek Landscape: From Thera to Climate Change Conference
DESCRIPTION:Envisioning the Greek Landscape: From Thera to Climate Change Conference \nOrganized by Professor Katerina Lagos\, California State University\, Sacramento and Professor James Horncastle\, Simon Fraser University \nOctober 19\, 2023 – October 21\, 2023\nAthens\, Greece\nKostis Palamas building (University of Athens)\, and Cotsen Hall (Gennadius Library) \nSince ancient times\, people residing in the Mediterranean have encountered and confronted climatic challenges\, including volcanic eruptions\, tsunamis\, fires\, and drought. Over the millennia\, the Greek people have dealt with the health\, demographic\, and economic consequences of environmental change\, offering a variety of solutions. \nToday\, governments around the world are developing new technologies and policies to mitigate the environmental impact of contemporary society. Drawing lessons from the long Greek experience\, this conference will explore the following: \n\nClimate challenges and resilience: fires\, drought\, poor agricultural production\, and how people faced these challenges since antiquity\nStewards or exploiters of the land: in what way has the environment been perceived by various societies\, institutions\, and rulers.\nLand use and external influences: modernized technology versus traditional forms of domestic usage.\n\nThe Envisioning the Greek Landscape conference is breaking new ground by exploring the Greek environment through an interdisciplinary and diachronic lens. Academics from different scholarly disciplines and historical periods will address the themes outlined above\, examining how the peoples inhabiting Greece\, broadly conceived\, have responded to these issues. Additionally\, the conference will conclude with a policy roundtable so that both academics and policymakers can discuss some of the important issues raised in the scholarly panels. In this manner\, the scholars will be extending their influence beyond academic circles. The conference organizers strongly believe that understanding past environmental challenges and experiences can influence or shape contemporary policymaking. Often\, earlier historical solutions to environmental challenges can inspire for more ecologically friendly solutions in the present. \nThe panels will examine topics such as disease\, drought\, forest fires\, earthquakes\, and balancing human existence to the surrounding environment. The panels will begin with the ancient period\, and then progress to Byzantium\, the Ottoman era\, the modern Greek state\, and then conclude with recent developments. Additionally\, institutions such the Orthodox Church\, political and economic elites\, both domestic and foreign\, will be analyzed vis-à-vis their perceived role toward the environment. \nFinally\, one of the fundamental goals of the conference is to stimulate a new exchange of ideas regarding the Greek environment. With that in mind\, the organizers of the conference intend to publish a selection of the presentation papers as an edited volume. This will disseminate the ideas of the conference to a wider audience – both popular and academic – and help foster greater interest in the environment: past\, present\, and future. \nAthens Environment Conference Program \n This event is open to the public to learn more\, click here: www.hellenicoutreach.org \nWatch the policy panel livestream here: https://www.youtube.com/live/sINBNuwBNcg?si=utBql4HjZ2OlJ9yb \nSpeakers:  \n\nIosif Botetzagias (University of the Aegean)\nJohn Chryssavgis (Ecumenical Patriarchate)\nJim Crow (University of Edinburgh\, UK)\nAndreas Doulfis (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens)\nÖnder Eren Akgül (Kadir Has University\, Turkey)\nKaterina Gardikas (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens)\nSharon Gerstel (UCLA\, USA)\nCharis Gerosideris (Prince Mohammad Bin Fahd University\, Saudi Arabia)\nAthanassios Grammenos (University of Piraeus)\nChris Gratien (University of Virginia\, USA)\nJames Horncastle (Simon Fraser University\, Canada)\nStefania Kalogeraki (University of Crete)\nAndreas Kakridis (Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences\, Athens)\nStefania Kalogeraki (University of Crete)\nAnastasia Karakasidou (Wellesley University\, USA)\nThanasis Kizos (University of the Aegean)\nStathis Klonaris (Agricultural University of Athens)\nMaria Kousis (University of Crete)\nNikos Lazaridis (Sacramento State University\, USA)\nKaterina Lagos (Sacramento State University\, USA)\nGeorgios Liakopoulos (Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology\, Germany)\nAngelos Loukakis (National Centre of Social Research\, Athens)\nFaidon Moudopoulos-Athanasiou (University of Crete)\nAndreas Papandreou (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens)\nMaria Paschou (University of Crete)\nSocrates Petmezas (University of Crete)\nRuben Post (University of St. Andrews\, UK)\nNiki Tsironi (National Hellenic Research Foundation\, Athens)\nNikos Tsivikis (Institute of Mediterranean Studies\, Crete)\nGeorge L.

SUMMARY:The Greek Chorio
DESCRIPTION:The Greek chorio has been a frequent subject of interest to anthropologists\, who have written extensively about rituals\, kinship structures\, work and gender. Increasingly\, the subject has come under the scrutiny of archaeologists\, who have carefully traced the material remains of villages and households in order to reconstruct the lives of those who lived outside of better studied cities and towns. This symposium aims to examine the Greek village over time — through its most ancient manifestations\, its Byzantine remains\, its Ottoman survival\, its modern abandonment\, and its contemporary rediscovery. What is the meaning of the chorio? What are its characteristics? How does it anchor people to a specific place and identity? Speakers include Michael Herzfeld\, Yannis Hamilakis\, Lin Foxhall\, Sharon Gerstel\, Fotini Kondyli\, Anastasios Vionis\, Jim Crow\, Rebecca Bryant\, Anastasia Karakasidou\, Kostis Kalantzis\, Kostis Kourelis\, and Susan Buck Sutton. The event will conclude with a contemporary film about Greek choria.
