SeminArt#7

Posted by Bart Geerts on Monday December 3rd 2012 at 14:14

Image & Word researcher Arno Roncada will give a presentation on the next SeminArt in Ghent.

SeminArt is a cross-association doctoral seminar aimed at researchers in the visual arts. It gives doctoral students the opportunity to present their research to a critical group of fellow doctoral students, supervisors and (external) referees. International referees are invited to give feedback on the presentations. The aim of SeminArt is to contribute to the development of doctoral research in the visual arts and to create a discursive community for artistic researchers within an international framework.

SeminArt partners are the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, Sint Lucas Antwerp, LUCA Visual Arts Ghent & Brussels (former Sint-Lukas Brussels & Sint-Lucas Visual Arts Ghent) and the Media, Arts & Design-faculty Hasselt/Genk. SeminArt is supported by the Higher Institute for Fine Arts Ghent (HISK).

UNFIXED symposium and workshop

Posted by Bart Geerts on Monday September 20th 2010 at 20:19

On November 15 and 16 Unfixed organises a symposium and workshop on Photography and postcolonial perspectives in contemporary art which will explore photography’s relationship to changing notions of cultural histories, identities and representations. The symposium and workshop will take place in The Center for Contemporary Art in Dordrecht (The Netherlands). Parallel to the symposium there is an exhibition of a group of six international artists who re-construct and re-contextualize fixed versions of photographic history through their installations, found and vernacular images, sculpture, text and video. Participating are artists Charif Benhelima (BE 1967), Otobong Nkanga (FR 1974), Keith Piper (UK 1960), Naro Snackey (NL 1980), Hulleah Tsinhnahjinnie (USA 1954) and Hank Willis Thomas (USA 1976). The artists will be present at the symposium together with Pamela Pattynama, Professor of Colonial and Postcolonial Literature and Cultural History (University of Amsterdam) and art historian and critic Kobena Mercer.
