The International Conference of Photography Studies, will be held on 4-6 December 2023 at Colégio dos Jesuítas, Universidade da Madeira, Funchal, Portugal, with the theme  Photography and Site – Routes, Cartographies and Drifts. The conference aims to explore the ways in which photography has been used to map and represent territories, as well as documenting journeys, migrations and movements across landscapes. In addition to designating spatially defined territories, the notion of “site” has been associated with metaphorical and metonymic meanings, with historical, identity and relational dimensions, which replace or, at least, superimpose this more essential geographic dimension.  Moreover, this overcoming of a more properly territorial circumscription is implicit in studies that relate photographic representation to geographic imagination, where photography emerges as a particularly apt means of defining spatiality. In this sense, from the digital revolution of the 21st century itself, where photography is inscribed as a plural practice and hybrid technique, the reconfiguration of this concept and others in its proximity, such as: that of lieux de mémoire (Pierre Nora), that of non-place (Marc Augé), or heterotopia (Michel Foucault). At the same time, we highlight the role of photography in artistic practices in different disciplinary areas, which privilege notions such as wandering, drifting and chance, namely, through the act of walking, either as an object or as a methodology or work process.

government-studies-JORNAL5-protest

msdm publications is thrilled to announce its collaboration with the 5th issue of JORNAL , centered around the theme of 'Publishing as a Protest Practice.' This collaboration includes an insert derived from the 2023 photozine, 'Government Studies.'
Launch: 
 29 October  16.30h, STET Drawing Room, Lisbon 

 

 

Editorial


Perhaps the first artist to consider publication as a form of protest was Goya when he created "Disasters of War,” which he engraved between 1810 and 1820, depicting the Napoleonic invasions. Goya passed away in 1828, and it wasn't until 1863 that the work was published due to its explicit and anti-heroic nature, with a print run of over a thousand copies of the complete series. The title of the work, handwritten by the author, is "Fatales consequencias de la sangrenta guerra em España com Buonaparte" (Fatal Consequences of the Bloody War in Spain with Buonaparte).


In the visual arts, we only see publication as protest again 100 years later in the manifestos published by the avant-gardes in the early 20th century, with Marinetti's "words in freedom" (Futurist Manifesto, 1909) defended in a controversial and revolutionary tone.


In a time of urgency, we invited artists Tiago Baptista and Paula Ferreira for Issue 5 of the newspaper to contemplate publication as a form of protest in the format of a visual essay. This results in a story about the capacity of literary production to generate effective resistance and tells the life of the American writer and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, born in Eatonville, a small community founded by formerly enslaved people who had become free in the southern United States.


Artist and educator paula roush proposes another visual essay, "Government Studies," based on the protests and strikes by teachers in London during the past academic year. She embarked on a journey of reading placards with her students from the London South Bank University, which resulted in the publication of a photozine by the publisher msdm (mobile strategies of display and mediation), paula roush's home/studio/gallery.


José Marmeleira, an educator, journalist, and cultural critic, is the author of the text "Publishing a protest is not making a post," in which, with the support of Hito Steyerl and Hannah Arendt, he reflects on protest, publication, and public space.


Joana Rita, a final-year student in the Master's in Fine Arts program at ESAD.CR, is the author of the text "Quatro Rodas de Manifesto" (Four Wheels of a Manifesto). As Alex Danchev mentions in the introduction to the book "100 Artists' Manifestos," writing a manifesto is an act of optimism and resilience.

EXHIBITION 'LIQUID MEMORY' (MEMORIA LIQUIDA)
AUGUST 25 - OCTOBER 15
WATER MUSEUM, LISBON

Curatorship as an artistic practice is once again an expanding field in contemporaneity, enabling the dialogue between the author/curator's practice and that of others. On the other hand, the field of territory photography, and more specifically that of the technical landscapes originated by technical system installations, is still an exploratory field, just as the editorial exercise of the artist's book is an artistic practice.

Liquid Memory is a curatorial, artistic, and editorial project that includes the participation of 25 authors and the inclusion of 33 photographic and videographic projects. Its object of reflection is the issues of water, both in problematising the supply system to Lisbon and in the various geopolitical, contextual, biographical, identity-related, and procedural appropriations addressed by the various authors in translating what water signifies in their artistic practice.

Water is the theme and medium of these works and is the theme and medium of the exhibition proposed here.

Authors - Francisco Varela, paula roush, Eduardo Sousa Ribeiro, Mide Plácido, Susana Paiva, Betina Dal Molin Juglair, Miguel Marecos, Joana Nascimento, Maria João Ferreira, David Goldenberg, Inês R.

Follow Y/our River: A protocol for deep mapping liminal space

at  Reframing the Archive International Conference 2023
IMAGE, ARCHIVE & CONFLICT (Im)material Ecologies in the Digital Age
22-23 Sept 2023
ONLINE | Saturday 23 Sept, part of panel 7, 12:30-13:30 pm

This proposal presents a project titled "Follow Y/our River." The project is based on a self-initiated artist residency conducted by hḗrā, tamara, and I (paula) along the river Lea Valley, where we explored the entanglement of human and non-human bodies of water. The residency resulted in two publications, "Follow Y/our River Lea-minal Edges: Prompts for Transitory States of Being" and "Follow Y/our River: A Manual for Deep Mapping in the Lower Lea Valley." Our objective for this project was to develop a protocol for deep mapping that captured the diverse aspects of Lea's liminal space. By combining photography, walking, collecting materials and field notes, the project aimed to capture the archaeological, ecological, sculptural, and archival sites in the Lea Valley. The protocol was designed to engage readers and visitors in the exploration of transitory states of being and the entanglement of human and non-human entities along the river. The project was presented through a book launch and exhibition at the Borough Road Gallery in May 2023. The exhibition included an editorial lab that invited readers to "follow y/our river" and create their own constellation of printed matter. Visitors were provided with a map at the entrance, guiding them to various working stations. The map features a visual index showcasing the dialogue between the artists and the fluid geography of the Lea.

EXHIBITION PUBLICATION 'RELATE NORTH: POSSIBLE FUTURES '

The mobile bookwork 'WIDE LOAD [ BRED LAST ] A House Moved' in collaboration – Tonia Carless, Robin Serjeant, paula roush, James Benedict Brown, Matthew Hynam, and Umeå University Sweden –  is part of the printed publication for the Relate North Exhibition.

The Relate North Exhibition, in partnership with SOVA, YukonU, and the University of Lapland, showcased artists from the Circumpolar North, exploring the theme of "Possible Futures."

The Relate North logo, inspired by a sculpture from Trʼondëk Hwëchʼin artist Jackie Olson, holds deep symbolism as a storytelling portal in their culture. The catalogue's brilliant design was brought to life by Yukon artist Amy Ball and printed by @colourcodeprint
