  • Expanding the Cultural Imagination Through Photography ICS [3] 1
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: University of Brighton Unit of Assessment: D34 Art and Design: History, Practice and Theory Title of case study: Expanding the Cultural Imagination through Photography ICS [3] 1. Summary of the impact Our research has harnessed the power of photography to expand the cultural imagination, creating new works and interpretive practices that enrich, illuminate and challenge perceptions of society and the world in which we live. Through exhibition, publication, and public and community engagement, our research has: 1) created cultural legacies for major public (Millennium Dome, Treasury) and commercial (Airbus) projects; 2) provided enhanced cultural experiences to multiple audiences and specific communities in the UK and Europe, provoking reflection on ideas of place and identity, and contributing to processes of cultural memory and reconciliation (Association of Jewish Refugees, Healing Through Remembering) and; 3) expanded photography within the cultural economy, working in partnership (Photoworks, Multistory) to build and sustain audiences for photography within and beyond the region. 2. Underpinning research University of Brighton (UoB) research in photography comprises three interlocking strands: the positioning of photography as a medium of critical artistic significance within the wider cultural economy and public sphere; the development of forms of visual storytelling that shape contemporary narratives of place, and; photography as a mode of enquiry into cultural history and memory. In 2003, in partnership with Photoworks and the University of Sussex, UoB was instrumental in founding the Brighton Photo Biennial to raise the public and professional profile of photography. In parallel, Photoforum (2003), launched by GREEN and LOWRY, provided the intellectual underpinning for developments in practice that fostered a critical debate around the medium’s changing uses and increasing cultural prominence.

  • Download Abstracts & Speaker Profiles
    List of Abstracts and Information about Speakers Ann Carragher, Blackpool School of Creative Art: Landscape, Liminality and Lament “A borderland is a vague and undetermined place created by the emotional residue of an unnatural boundary” (Anzaldua 2007) My current visual research explores the overlapping and interwoven histories of the landscape in and around the ‘South Armagh/ Louth Border’ (close to the town of Newry, Northern Ireland, where I grew up). This area is also known as and referred to as ’Gap of the North’ and ‘Bandit Country’. Steeped in history and trauma, the political, physical landscape of the area, active and heroic, is well documented and memorialized. Strategically the area was very important as it marked the route into the Kingdom of Ulster, and the Hill of Faughart was the scene of many important battle. I return to ‘record and memorialize’, documenting and focusing on the ‘passive, personal and intimate’. As within this border area, with its bloody and turbulent past exist ‘sacred places’ of prayer and pilgrimage. These are explored through my Fine Art/ interdisciplinary practice (moving image displayed inside ‘watch towers/bird hides’). This particular border area became the ‘expanded space for observation’ engaging in the found cultural context of ‘spaces/places’ suspended between past, present and future. The influential roles of memory, psychology and religion are interwoven in the topography of this fascinating and ‘liminal’ rural landscape. The ‘liminal’ relates to issues regarding Hauntology & Post Conflict Resolution, as the sense of suspicion, paranoia and surveillance is only too evident. The research deals with issues of cultural politics ‘enduring attachment’ (Diaspora), Trauma and Memory, (residual and suspended trauma).

  • TPG Exhibition List
    Exhibition History 1971 - present The following list is a record of exhibitions held at The Photographers' Gallery, London since its opening in January 1971. Exhibitions and a selection of other activities and events organised by the Print Sales, the Education Department and the Digital Programme (including the Media Wall) are listed. Please note: The archive collection is continually being catalogued and new material is discovered. This list will be updated intermittently to reflect this. It is for this reason that some exhibitions have more detail than others. Exhibitions listed as archival may contain uncredited worKs and artists. With this in mind, please be aware of the following when using the list for research purposes: – Foyer exhibitions were usually mounted last minute, and therefore there are no complete records of these brief exhibitions, where records exist they have been included in this list – The Bookstall Gallery was a small space in the bookshop, it went on to become the Print Room, and is also listed as Print Room Sales – VideoSpin was a brief series of worKs by video artists exhibited in the bookshop beginning in December 1999 – Gaps in exhibitions coincide with building and development worKs – Where beginning and end dates are the same, the exact dates have yet to be confirmed as the information is not currently available For complete accuracy, information should be verified against primary source documents in the Archive at the Photographers' Gallery.
