Le style et la périodicité

Abstract

The concept of style denotes both collective phenomenon and individual expression. While some assign styles a place in linear time and space, others model style based on the cycle of life: works of different periods simply exemplify the same anachronous oppositions or cycles. These approaches are not always opposed, but superimpose or complete each other. However,while the conceptualization of collective styles is very refined, personal style is often seen as monolithic. The concept needs to be refined
to account for the fact that artists sometimes alternate styles or even use different styles in the same work.
