PROJEÇÃO
"Sonhos Lúcidos – Depois de Cem Anos de Solidão",
João Campos e Fernando Almeida, 2022, Doc, HD, 78 min. M/12
“Um filme documental, que narra a actualidade na Colômbia, que ainda reflete a memória e a formação de uma identidade como Nação. A cidade de Medellín, marcada profundamente pela memória da guerra de guerrilha e do narcotráfico e que, ainda hoje, está sujeita a outros fenómenos relacionados com estes. Cidade em que a passagem numa “fronteira invisível” pode significar a morte. Mais longe de alguns destes problemas, aparece-nos a Amazónia Colombiana, que nos recorda que os povos na sua origem não estavam separados por fronteiras fictícias e que ainda hoje procuram preservar a sua cultura e identidade”.

Festa de Encerramento IMAGO LISBOA
“I have been admitted to hospital. Please don’t worry, but call me when you can. Lots of love, D,P,O.”
It was always how he signed off; shorthand for Dad, Pete, Opa. Tim J. Veling would soon learn his father had been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer with an estimated three months to live. The rug was suddenly pulled out from under his feet.
D,P,O is a record of those last, precious months. The photographs are testament to not only the grief that father and son worked through together, but more importantly the love and admiration they shared; an account of the inevitable slowing of one life set to a backdrop of a new life and relationships thriving. Intensely moving in its unflinching intimacy and honesty, D,P,O reminds us that while death comes to us all, we must live in the present and treasure deeply the company of people we hold dear. For within those that remain, love and life endure.
Tim J. Veling (New Zealand) is a photographer and Senior Lecturer in Photography at the Ilam School of Fine Arts at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. He is also the director of “Place in Time: The Christchurch Documentary Project.”

“EXPANDED DOCUMENTARY – POST-DOCUMENTARY PRACTICES IN CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHY"
Harri Pälviranta
The workshop 'Expanded Documentary – Post-documentary practices in contemporary photography’ is designed to provoke photographers to use their medium in elaborative ways. Oftentimes the issues that photographers touch are so demanding and many-sided that alternative approaches need to be adopted. Even though classical visual story-telling is important, stretching the photographic medium’s possibilities may appear beneficial, particularly for projects touching difficult and edged societal topics.
The goal is to provide participants a historically and theoretically grounded perspective to image making which challenges the medium itself and thus suggests alternative perspectives to photography.
The workshop will last 4 days, but developed in two moments: 3rd and 4th June // 7th and 8th October.
What students will learn:
The workshop will focus on participants ongoing projects but also offer views to theoretical considerations around documentary practice and witnessing. Historical perspective to post-documentary approach is introduced and the idea of witnessing carefully conceptualized. These are shared as lectures but also during the discussions with the participants. Participants are suggested to apply this 'expanded methodology' in the execution of their ongoing projects.
Applications:
Participation in the Workshop is limited to 10 participants. Candidates must pre-register on the Atelier de Lisboa website and send a portfolio and a short biography (atelierdelis[email protected]). Contact Atelier de Lisboa for any clarification.
Language:
The sessions with Harri Pälviranta will be in English.
Fee: 290€
