Building from studio visits organized during the research process for the exhibition The Lives of Documents—Photography as Project, these public programs offer an opportunity to meet and engage with artists and photographers, and to continue reflecting on the methodologies and strategies they use in constructing visual arguments. With this series of events, we invite you to explore photographic, cinematic, and editorial projects that focus on transformations and changes in infrastructures, dwellings, monuments, technologies, and archives. Join us to learn how photography could act a research tool to document, observe, and critique the mechanisms that shape and transform our world, as photographers and artists reveal the creative processes behind their projects.
