Staying Relevant
This article examines cultural leadership in Denmark over a ten-year period (2013–2023), focusing on how leaders of publicly funded cultural institutions navigate changing conditions to secure legitimacy and maintain relevance. Drawing on 14 interviews and a focus group, the analysis combines institutional theory and pragmatic sociology to explore leaders' perceptions of their stakeholder environment and their strategies for legitimation. The fin…
Fortolkning, betydning og magt
Advertising images have been a focal point of feminist activism and protest since the 1960s, and criticism of the negative impact of commercially mediated gender stereotypes has also been met with political attention. As an EU member state, Denmark is obliged to integrate the objectives of eliminating the media’s stereotypical representations of gender into their respective national legislation and guidelines. Nevertheless, a review of the Danish…
The Legacy and Future of Saussurean Semiology in the Study of Art and Visual Communication
The present study discusses how the emergence of semiology has outlined a new trajectory for visual and pictorial studies. First, we outline how Ferdinand de Saussure's thoughts on the sign and its relation to visual communication has developed. Second, we interrogate its impact on art history, an already established science of visuality, throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. Third, we briefly discuss whether art history's answer to reading Sau…
Legitimizing Sexist Advertising
Feminist media studies have highlighted gender discrimination in advertising since the 1960s. Despite this focus and political attention on combating sexist stereotypes and prejudicial portrayals in advertising the problem persists. Few scholarly endeavours have thus far probed how the national agencies tasked with preventing sexism perceive and address such representations in marketing. To remedy this research gap this study investigates the Dan…
Introduction to gender and media revisited
Gender is not a new concept in media studies.However, its uses and connotations have changed over time to include diff erent types of problems such as the position of women in media industries, gendered stereotypes in mass media or, more recently, the fl uidity and performance of gender inspired by queer studies.When, back in 1986, MedieKultur ran a special issue on "Women and Electronic Mass Media", the focus was specifi cally on women in media …
Women are from Venus and men play Oddset”
In both scholarly and political discussions, including within the European Union, stereotypical representations of gender in advertising are most often assumed to concern the female body and femini
Niall Richardson, Sadie Wearing
Since the early days of women's and gender studies, media, and particularly audio-visual media such as television and film, have played a central role in demonstrating how the representation of gender exerts significant influence over the ideas we hold about femininity and masculinity.Through media, we form imaginations and expectations about what constitutes -or what should constitute -"female" versus "male" and how those two concepts should be …
Det medialiserede museum
Gennem de sidste tyve år har digitale teknologier fået en stigende og mere betydningsfuld plads i museernes kommunikation og formidling. Denne artikels påstand er, at museumsformidlingens digitalisering kan ses som resultat af en medialiseringsproces, der kan kædes sammen med et kulturpolitisk og museumsteoretisk fokus på digital formidling, hvor brugeroplevelse, interaktivitet og deltagelse er centrale begreber. Artiklen argumenterer for, at de …
Extending Museum Walls. Reaching out with site-specific, digital, and participatory interventions
As museums are shifting their traditional focus away from collections and toward their audiences, they are experimenting with new strategies for communication and participation. Consequently, in recent years, a large number of outreach and visitor engagement projects, implemented by museums, have seen the light of day. Although these projects vary significantly in design and setting, they are typically informed by ideas of inclusion, dialogue, an…
Formidlingsbegrebets digitalisering i Danmark. Diskursive implikationer og praktiske konsekvenser
This article investigates the development of the concept of museum communication in a Danish cultural political context from 2006 until 2013 and the practical consequences a changed interpretation of the concept has for the Danish state-owned and state-supported museums. The main argument is that the concept of cultural communication, specifically concerning museums, has undergone a transformation towards having a digital content of meaning in re…
