Saturday, January 26 at 3pm

Thursday, February 14 at 7pm, Lecture by Leif Wigh (former curator at Moderna museet)
"A look at the past. About older photographic technology and its users, 1839-1980"
In his lecture Leif Wigh talked about the technological and stylistic developments of photographic history's different periods using examples from the exhibition. During the second half of the 19th century Julia Margaret Cameron developed a very personal artistic approach using the technology of her time. At first glance one could think that the Czech artist Miroslav Tichy was inspired by her approach. His self-constructed cameras are particulary exciting. There was also a trend among image-makers of the 1970's of using old-fashioned cameras in order to achieve certain effects and moods in their images.
Thursday, February 28 at 7pm, lecture by Cecilia Sjöholm
"Von Hausswolff's Technologies: a Foucauldian reading"
Free admission to the lecture. The exhibitions and café close at 7pm. No pre-registration necessary.
Towards the end of his life Michel Foucault became interested in the power he linked to 'technologies of the self'. One could say that Foucault try to formulate the self like a moral driving force outside of the system with which the individual is coded, socially and politically. Can one analyse Annika von Hausswolff's images under this lense? Which conflicts are evident in her work? The lecture looks at von Hausswolff's images using the notions of Foucault.
Friday, February 29 at 12 noon, holiday program for junior high and high school students
Using the work of Miroslav Tichy, Julia Margaret Cameron and Annika von Hausswolff we explored various themes related to the photographic medium and its artistic processes. We compared the three artist's styles and took a closer look at their relationships with the people they portray and compared the male / female gaze, poses, trends and ideals. The visit included an introductory slide show and a tour of the exhibitions where the students were invited to reflect on and discuss the issues mentioned above.
