The artist biopic: a historical analysis of narrative cinema, 1934-2010

The thesis provides an historical overview of the artist biopic that has emerged as a distinct sub-genre of the biopic as a whole, totalling some ninety films from Europe and America alone since the first talking artist biopic in 1934. Their making usually reflects a determination on the part of the director or star to see the artist as an alter-ego. Many of them were adaptations of successful literary works, which tempted financial backers by having a ready-made audience based on a pre-established reputation. The sub-genre’s development is explored via the grouping of films with associated themes and the use of case studies. These examples can then be used as models for exploring similar sets of data from other countries and time periods. The specific topics chosen for discussion include the representation of a single painter, for example, Vincent Van Gogh, to see how the treatment of an artist varies across several countries and over seventy years. British artist biopics are analysed as a case study in relation to the idea of them posing as a national stereotype. Topics within sex and gender studies are highlighted in analysis of the representation of the female artist and the queer artist as well as artists who have lived together as couples. A number of well-known gallery artists have become directors of artist biopics and their films are considered to see what particular insights a professional working artist can bring to the portrayal of artistic genius and creation. In the concluding part of the thesis it is argued that the artist biopic overall has survived the bad press which some individual productions have received and can even be said to have matured under the influence of directors producing a quality product for the art house, festival and avant-garde distribution circuits. As a genre it has proved extremely adaptable and has reflected the changing attitudes towards art and artists within the wider community. It has both encouraged renewed interest in the work of established national artists and also raised the profile of those relatively obscure such as Séraphine de Senlis and Pirosmani.

Visões do Império : a 1ª EXposição Colonial de 1934 e alguns dos seus álbuns

A Primeira Exposição Colonial Portuguesa realizada no Porto em 1934 foi a consequência visível do impulso que Salazar quis dar à «política colonial» portuguesa e a uma orientação imperial em que colonizar e civilizar as populações indígenas eram as palavras de ordem. Como corolário da exposição foram produzidos, entre outros, dois importantes álbuns, hoje documentos de inegável interesse histórico, não só enquanto discurso de propaganda do regime do Estado Novo, mas também enquanto narrativas visuais ou “visões do Império”. São eles, o Álbum Fotográfico da autoria do fotógrafo Domingos Alvão e o Álbum Comemorativo, com reproduções de pinturas e desenhos do pintor Eduardo Malta. Neste trabalho pretendemos reflectir sobre essas “visões do Império”, pois elas expressam uma visualidade e um imaginário que se traduz em práticas sociais, em valores e em relações de dominação que definem uma política do olhar, onde o corpo se torna um espaço de inscrição, bem como de categorização racial e cultural. Em suma, é através dessas imagens que vemos as relações de poder e as formas de dominação sobre o outro, que impregnaram a exposição.

A Legislator under Surveillance: The Creation and Implementation of Swiss Banking Legislation 1910-1934

This paper analyses how banking regulation was introduced in Switzerland - one of the world's most prominent financial centres - which remained in place until the beginning of the twenty-first century. It shows that the law adopted on 8 November 1934 is a perfect example of capture of the regulator by the regulated. Essentially a political response in the context of the economic crisis of the 1930s, it largely reflected the interests of banking circles by limiting the intervention of the State as much as possible. The introduction of the new legislation was facilitated by the temporary weakness of Swiss banking circles, as they depended on the State to delay or prevent the collapse of many major credit institutions. They did not manage to derail the law as they had two decades earlier when they scuppered the federal bill on banks drawn up between 1914 and 1916. But this time they were better organized and more united, and intervened all the more effectively in the legislative process itself. The 1934 law is thus distinctive in that it made no structural changes to the architecture of the financial centre but merely codified its practices through flexible legislation meant to reassure the public. The law was aimed less at controlling banking activity than at keeping - thanks to skilfully calibrated political concessions - the State from having to intervene more directly in the internal management of banks or in the fixing of interest rates and the export of capital.
