Es un placer anunciar nuestra conferencia titulada «Perspectivas recientes sobre la fotografía colonial del sudeste asiático», que tendrá lugar los días 7 y 8 de noviembre de 2024. La conferencia está organizada por la Prof. Dra. Sarah Albiez-Wieck. Por favor, eche un vistazo a nuestro programa.
Photography has been an important tool among the Western imperialists colonizing Asia. Having been invented in the mid-nineteenth century, the images that it captured were quiet but effective mediums of categorization, racialization and epitomization and were also used for missionary aims.
This workshop, therefore, will delve further into this topic discussing the most recent trends and perspectives on colonial photography with a regional focus on Southeast Asia. Featuring researchers from Germany, the Netherlands, the Philippines, and the United States, this event will discuss the logics behind the photographs, their relationship with religion, modes of resistance against them as well as approaches as to how to deal with them in the present.
The Workshop is being organized by the Subproject A3-39 Visual Stereotyping of Religious Groups in the Colonial Philippines of the Cluster of Excellence. This project deals with the visual (stereo-) typification of people of different religions in the Philippines. It asks how religion is represented as a marker of social difference, othering, and belonging in visual representations. In doing so, the changing role of religion in a web of intersectional difference is also taken into account, i.e. its interaction with categorizations such as gender, status/class, ethnicity, occupation, and age.
El recién fundado Centre for Empire Studies de la Universidad de Münster celebra su conferencia inaugural los días 10 y 11 de octubre de 2024. Si desea saber más sobre su programa, haga clic aquí.
