Description/Abstract: (Tangible) artistic and cultural heritage is not a “neutral” relic of the past, as debates about the “proper” handling of collections, the preservation of architectural structures and memorial sites, and their contemporary presentation demonstrate. The contributors shed light on these dissonances, which are amplified from a transnational perspective—for example, through the complex history of interconnections between Saarland and Lorraine, the post-Soviet present of Bulgaria, or the experiences of flight and displacement in the border region between Italy and Slovenia. The yearbook also documents the French visiting professorship “Dissonant Cultural Heritage Reflected in Art.” Reviews of current works from the Franco-German context round out the volume.
