Tuesday Discussion with Caroline Jacobi: “Photography Artistic Landscapes in the Anthropocene: Latin America in Focus”
23.06.2026 16:30 – 17:45
Location: Rachel Carson Center, fourth floor, Conference Room, Leopoldstr. 11a, 80802 Munich, Germany
This Tuesday, Caroline Jacobi, RCC visiting scholar from Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, will join us for the Tuesday Discussion to talk about the work she has conducted for her thesis.
In the face of the contemporary environmental issues and social disputes in latin american territories, what are the potentials of artistic experimental photography to construct critical and counterhegemonic landscapes that foster ecology and a multiplicity of existences and cosmologies? This research analyzes the work of artists who utilize photography to investigate and create landscapes that challenge dominant perspectives, incorporating overlays that feature elements of the territory and aspects not easily visible to the camera. It reflects photography's potential as a means of attentive engagement and fictionalization which can contribute to addressing environmental issues and diverse modes of existence (Stengers, Isabelle. 2018.

The Tuesday Discussions are free and open to the public.
