Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Presented at the international conference Challenge the past / diversify the future, the contributions collected herein deal with ways of challenging accepted historical representations of the City by offering modes of recollection and perspectives that capture both multi-sensory and multi-layered aspects of urban context. As such, they offer new empirically grounded research on the experiences of the inhabitants, both past and present, whether individually or as a collective. With a focus on the city as a space that is performed by a host of actants reaching across time through both materiality and memory, the authors critically address modes through which visual, audible, and multi-sensory representations can challenge, diversify or uproot conventions of urban representation. Four projects. Four takes on making representations of a city.

On the Question of Exhibition, PARSE Journal Issue 13: Parts 1,2,3
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This issue of PARSE, published in three parts, examines the question of the exhibition. One of the aims of this series-issue is to turn attention to the material, experiential, as well as conceptual and political conditions of the exhibition that may have been overlooked within the growing literature on curatorial and exhibition histories. Our aim, as editors is not to elevate the exhibition form. Rather, we wish to interrogate exhibition as a pervasive category of display and mediation where principles of exposition, demonstration, exemplification, taxonomy, circulation, commentary, spectatorship and valorization are operative. Since the 1990’s curatorial discourse has sought to position the curatorial away from, or at the very least as in excess of, the practical tasks of exhibition-making whilst the burgeoning field of exhibition histories has created a historiographic approach to the forms, developments and questions posed by exhibition. This series of contributions seeks, in some respects to return to the fundamental question of exhibition-to interrogate it as a self-explanatory category. Part 1 published in June 2021 includes contributions from Dave Beech, Kathrin Böhm, Alaina Claire Feldman, Samia Henni, Steven Henry Madoff, Saul Marcadent, Lisa Rosendahl and Jéssica Varrichio; and roundtables with Rasha Salti, Nick Aikens, Kristine Khouri and Anthony Gardner; and with Yolande Zola Zoli van der Heide, Gavin Wade, Mick Wilson and Franciska Zólyom. The contributions in Part 2 extend the considerations initiated in Part 1, by bridging the world-making and ordering techniques of exhibition–what we might broadly call its onto-epistemological register-with the pragmatic and technical questions of exhibitionary apparatuses, or its operational register. The purpose being not to create a dichotomy but rather to set up a field of tension and interference between different moments of production-analysis. This part offers detailed analyses of individual exhibitions, allowing for an interplay between the specificities of singular instances coupled with a wider angle from which to survey the field. Part 2 contains contributions from Ingrid Cogne Patrizia Costantin, Kris Dittel & Jelena Novak, Catalina Imizcoz, Joey Orr, Barbara Neves Alves, Mateusz Sapija, Vladislav Shapovalov, Sasha Shestakova, and Joshua Simon. The restless questioning of exhibition underpins Part 3, where artists curators and researchers unpick exhibition’s entangled relationship to pedagogy, to institutional processes, to aesthetics, to constituent work, to lived experience and the ways in which the political arises out of these entanglements. Part 3 includes texts by Doreen Mende, David Morris and Grace Samboh, Ola Hassanain, Li Yizhuo, Ginevra Ludovici, Cătălin Gheorghe, Sabine Dahl Nielsen, a visual essay by Paul O’Neill and a roundtable with Jeanne van Heeswijk, Maria Hlavajova, Damon Reaves & Mick Wilson

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This two volume set investigates the theoretical and practical framework that informs scholarship on documentary film that has hitherto neglected questions of gender and female authorship. It examines a wide array of documentary phenomena through global and transnational case studies and interviews. It also place a special emphasis on the nature of both individual and collective filmmaking and the ways in which these dynamics inform documentary work.

Thresholds: Interwar Lens Media Cultures 1919–1939
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Perioden mellan 1919 och 1939 var en exceptionell tid för både fotografi och film. I denna antologi erbjuder framstående svenska och internationella forskare och experter nya perspektiv på mellankrigstidens linspraktiker. Thresholds undersöker film och fotografi via ett flertal olika spår där teknik, idéströmningar, grupper och individer står i fokus under mellankrigstidens formativa era. Texterna lyfter fram tidigare okänt material genom att presentera nya fallstudier och kritiska reflektioner kring linsmediernas roll för både samhällsbyggande och konstnärligt experimenterande i och utanför Europa. Boken är nära kopplad till utställningen "Det nya ögat", som visas på Hasselblad Center i Göteborg perioden maj–september 2021.

Transcultural Identity Constructions in a Changing World
- 2016
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- This volume takes a broad outlook on the concept of transculturality. Contributions from 19 authors and specialists, of almost as many diverse origins, grapple with this concept, each in their own way. How can transculturality be described? How can it help us understand our world? Many of the chapters deal with literary texts, others with the stories told in movies, drama, and visual art. There are texts about the complexity of the European Burqa-Ban debate, the negative aspects of Portuguese multiculturalism, or the border-crossing experiences of Filipino immigrants in Ireland. Several chapters examine stereotypes, the idea of movement, the dissolution of cultural borders, or the nature of bilingual writing. It is a unique contribution to the field, on a virtually global scale.

Contemporary Feminist Studies and its Relation to Art History and Visual Studies: Proceedings from a Conference in Gothenburg, March 28-29, 2007
- 2010
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The aim of this conference was to discuss and to elucidate the effects of the last thirtyfive years of feminist studies within art history and visual studies. Since Linda Nochlin published the essay "Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?" considerable research has been made and published. But is the gender perspective included in contemporary research and teaching? Or is it still marginalized? Except for the feminist perspective, gender and queer theories and ethnicity will be discussed in relation to contemporary research in art history and visual studies, and adjacent disciplines.

The power of vulnerability : mobilising affect in feminist, queer and anti-racist media cultures
- 2018
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The power of vulnerability interrogates the new language of vulnerability that has emerged in feminist, queer and anti-racist debates about the production, use and meanings of media. The book investigates the historical legacies and contemporary forms and effects of this language. In today’s media culture, traumatic first-person or group narratives have popular currency, mobilising affect from compassion to rage to gain cultural visibility and political advantage. In this context, vulnerability becomes a kind of capital, a resource or an asset that can and has been appropriated for various groups and purposes in public discourses, activism as well as cultural institutions. Thus, politics of representation translates into politics of affect, and the question about whose vulnerability counts as socially and culturally legible and acknowledged. The contributors of the book examine how vulnerability has become a battleground; how affect and vulnerability have turned into a politicised language for not only addressing but also obscuring asymmetries of power; and how media activism and state policies address so-called vulnerable groups. While the contributors investigate the political potential as well as the constraints of vulnerability for feminist, queer and antiracist criticism, they also focus on the forms of agency and participation vulnerability can offer.
