Out of Frame
Opening Exhibition, Bruxelles
The photography exhibition OUT OF FRAME – Rethinking the visual narratives of migrations in Europe inaugurates Thursday February 1, at 18.30 p.m. at Geopolis, Bruxelles.
The exhibition is part of “Bridges: Assessing the production and impact of migration narratives”, a project that examines the causes and consequences of migration narratives in a context of rising politicisation about and ideological polarisation.
Focused on six European countries – France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain and Great Britain – Bridges adopts an interdisciplinary, co- produced approach developed by a heterogenous twelve-partner consortium made up of universities, think tanks, research centres, cultural associations and civil societies. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
The exhibition presented in Bruxelles examines the representation of migratory phenomena in Europe through sette work of award-winning international photographers and the chronology of the main media reports.
There is also a selection of the most representative publications of migratory events that occurred in the six countries examined in the years from 2015 to 2022, to show the narrative model that accompanied these events.
PHOTOGRAPHERS
The exhibition presents the works of six artists who have examined contemporary migratory phenomena placing the focus of their photographic projects on migrants as their subject.
Miia Autio, Felipe Romero Beltran, Samuel Gratacap, Alessio Mamo, Alisa Martinova, and Aubrey Wade are well-known and respected for their professional commitment and have published their works in important international publications. Each of them has distinguished their work through the choice of their subjects and a personal and specific visual language.
The partecipatory project Non you see me Moria is a call to all European citizens to take action in support of migrants detained in camps.
The exhibition will remain open until March 11, 2024.
