Construing Cultural Heritage: The Stagings of an Artist [PDF ebook] 
The Case of Ivar Arosenius

Support

This study examines how an artist construed himself as cultural heritage by the turn of the 19th century, how this heritage was further construed after his death, and how the artworks can be made to further new approaches and insights through a digital archive (aroseniusarchive.se). The study employs the concept of ‘staging’ to capture the means used by the artist, as well as by reception, in this construal. The question of ‘staging’ involves not only how the artist has been called forth from the archives, but also how the artist can be called forth in new ways today through digitization. The study first elaborates on the theoretical framework through the aspects of mediation and agency, then explores how the artist was staged after his death. Finally, the artist’s own means of staging himself are explored. Swedish painter Ivar Arosenius (1878-1909) is the case studied.
