June 14, 2020/in Exhibition Reviews, Reviews, Spring 2020_#Intelligence

The xapiri are the images of the yarori ancestors who turned into animals in the beginning of time. This is their real name. You call them ‘spirits’, [sic] but they are other. They came into existence when the forest was still young. The shaman elders have always made them dance and we continue to do […]

Books of faces: Cultural techniques of basic emotions

May 27, 2019/in Spring 2019_#Emotions

by Grant Bollmer Introduction In 2015, Facebook filed a patent that proposes the passive use of digital cameras on computers and smartphones, taking pictures of users, matching, among other things, photographed facial expressions with those in a database.[1] This would permit, the patent suggests, evaluation of subjective feelings about whatever appears on one’s social media […]

We have never been (post)modern: Photography’s late encounters with film

July 10, 2018/in Exhibition Reviews, Reviews, Spring 2018_#Resolution

The discussions on the relationship between photography and film have for a long time been centred on stillness and duration. The two oldest of the so-called new media seemed settled in binary oppositions, as it was either the photograph’s death portrait or the motion picture’s vital progression. Ice or fire, as Peter Wollen aptly proclaimed.[1] […]

July 11, 2016/in Exhibition Reviews, Reviews, Spring 2016_'Small data'

Lebanese artist Akram Zaatari’s exhibition Unfolding at Moderna Museet in Stockholm (7 March – 16 August 2015) is what you may call a hybrid exhibition in the sense that it includes several different media and makes use of various exhibition formats.[1] The exhibition can be divided into two separate but interrelated parts.

Theaters: Cinematic vintage magnified

November 17, 2015/in Autumn 2015_'Vintage', Exhibition Reviews, Reviews

The pictures gathered in the photographic series Theaters are the perfect attempt to exemplify the challenging task to find a crystallised form to cinematic duration. Analog in their technique, they not only represent the impressed trace of an instant in which the authors freeze an existing referential index, but they actually feed the rich debate […]

June 12, 2015/in Spring 2015_'Animals'

by Dominic Pettman Horsing around[1] Nietzsche … arranged a photograph of the three of us, in spite of strong objections on the part of Paul Rée, who suffered throughout his life from a pathological aversion to the reproduction of his features.
