Photobloc _ How to Get Out of Central European Photography Ghetto, Be Recognised, Get Some Prizes and Not to Lose Identity - with Adam Mazur

Adam Mazur lengyel kurátor, kritikus, művészettörténész a MOME kurzushetén tart workshopot How to present my photography project címmel a Fotográfia szak hallgatóinak. Melyben azt a kérdést feszegeti, hogyan küzdhető le a közép-európai pályakezdő művészek közmondásos kisebbségi komplexusa. Melyek azok a megkülönböztető jegyek, amelyek a régió művészetének nagyon is jellegzetes minőségét adják?

A kurzust Adam Mazur nyilvános online előadása vezeti fel, melyre online lehet bejelentkezni: https://www.facebook.com/events/380922613289598
Az előadás címe: Photobloc _ How to Get Out of Central European Photography Ghetto, Be Recognised, Get Some Prizes and Not to Lose Identity

A lecture will be focused on the identity of 21 st century Central European photography. You may like it or not but looking from an outsider's perspective it is still a dominant context in which artists from the region are valued. This situation is fueled by historical and political rather than specifically artistic narratives. In my presentation I will give some historical background and talk briefly about today;s institutional context in which we are all in. Then I will move to key questions and try to address them with some interesting examples. What does it mean and what it may mean today to be a contemporary Central European Photographer? What is the distinctive quality and is it ok to embrace it? What are successful stories of artists who did break out and work in the field without losing their connection to the troubled region?
