Images in Conflict – Bilder im Konflikt
May 2017 – December 2018 · symposium, exhibition and publication (ed.)
Under the title [IMAGE MATTERS] the Photojournalism and Documentary Photography programme at Hanover’s University of Applied Sciences and Arts has created a platform for discussion about issues in photographic practice, discourse in the theory of image and photography as well as in visual and cultural studies.
The first event that took place in May 2017 was a symposium on the subject of Images in Conflict / Bilder im Konflikt. The focus was on the changed use and effect of images from crisis and conflict situations as well as the conflict potential inherent in the images themselves.
In an accompanying exhibition at GAF - Galerie für Fotografie, works by Dona Abboud, Christoph Bangert, Edmund Clark, Harun Farocki, Ziyah Gafić, Dirk Gieselmann / Armin Smailovic and Tim Hetherington were shown.
At the end of 2018, the emonymous publication was published by Jonas Verlag. In four chapters ("Agents and Perspectives", "Nothing but the Truth", "Visibly Invisible", "How to Make Images Matter"), the central aspects of current visualisation strategies and image conflicts are discussed against the background of the question of the relationship between conflicts and their mediatisation.
With visual and written essays by: Dona Abboud, Christoph Bangert, Lars Bauernschmitt, Ann-Christin Bertrand, Vera Brandner, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Edmund Clark, Emma Daly, Michael Ebert, Susanne von Falkenhausen, Karen Fromm, Ziyah Gafić, Sophia Greiff, Dirk Gieselmann and Armin Smailovic, Tim Hetherington, Tony Hicks, Ilaria Hoppe, Geert van Kesteren, Felix Koltermann, Susanne Krieg, Paul Lowe, Stephen Mayes, Philipp Müller, Rolf F.
