Media Elective: The Invisible Seminar

Where? At The Dept of Fine Art, 6th floor, in C. Sundtsgate 53 out at Nordnes.

See a map of the KHiB Campus

When? At Five O'clock PM (1700 HRS)

The seminar seeks to investigate the operations of visibility by highlighting the unseen, the camouflaged, the immaterial and the erased as particular aesthetic strategies. If the visual arts historically have relied upon the seeing subject as its partner, functioning to give representation to the imagination or world events, what forms of critique, radicality and poetics have been developed by occupying the space of the invisible? How has visual culture studies, and what Camiel van Winkel terms the "regime of visibility", contributed to the contemporary imperative to visualize and expose? Can notions of the invisible be used to deepen perspectives on the power dynamics of the gaze?

Through this one day seminar, questions around looking and the overlooked will be addressed, pointing toward acts of sonic intervention, secret projects, smuggling operations and other methodologies of the hidden or erased to enliven debate on contemporary cultural practices.

The seminar will include presentations, performances and works by KHiB staff as well as invited guests, including Michelle Teran, Jeremy Welsh, Steve Dixon, Rune Søchting and others.
