This one-day conference aims at placing industrial exhibitions in the context of an emerging visual and media culture specific to the mass and consumption culture that appeared in Europe and the United States at the turn of the century. It will pay particular attention to the processes of circulation, negotiation, and appropriation among the various events, which invite us to put them in a transnational and multidisciplinary perspective. Beyond the paradigmatic case of the Great Exhibition of 1851 and the shows in its wake, the study of "exhibiting industries" opens new fields of research for a visual history of industrial culture in the 19th and 20th centuries. This conference intends to discuss several of its strands.
