Depuis lors, les images ont joué un rôle déterminant dans notre compréhension de la crise du logement. Mais comment les pratiques photographiques du XIXe siècle — en particulier la représentation des bidonvilles et les relevés impériaux — ont-elles façonné un « canon de la crise du logement » qui continue d’influencer les politiques et les préférences contemporaines en matière de logement? S’appuyant sur une sélection d’œuvres issues de la collection photographique du CCA, Sarah Churchill examine comment les stratégies visuelles historiques de « l’altérisation » et de la « fascination pour la ruine » se sont inscrites dans un canon plus large d’insécurité et de défavorisation environnementale.Sarah Churchill est professeure adjointe d’histoire de l’art à l’Eastern Connecticut State University. Ses recherches portent sur la manière dont la photographie et les beaux-arts façonnent les perceptions publiques de la crise du logement et de l’appartenance. Elle a bénéficié de bourses du Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art et de l’American Conference for Irish Studies. Elle a obtenu son doctorat en histoire culturelle à la Drew University.Cet événement aura lieu en anglais. La conférence est gratuite et ouverte au public, mais le nombre de places étant limité, l’inscription est obligatoire.L’entrée au musée est incluse dans l’inscription.-----The Origins of Housing Crisis: Photography, Empire, and the Architecture of PrecarityResearch Seminar with Sarah ChurchillAt the end of the nineteenth century, journalist Jacob Riis’s photographs taught the world to see what life in the slums was really like. Ever since, images have been formative to our understanding of housing dysfunction. But how did nineteenth-century photographic practices— particularly slum representation and imperial surveying—shape a “housing crisis canon” that continues to inform contemporary housing politics and preferences? Drawing on selected works from the CCA photography collection, Sarah Churchill examines how historic visual strategies of “othering” and “ruin lust” have been embedded in a broader canon of insecurity and environmental deprivation.Sarah Churchill is Assistant Professor of Art History at Eastern Connecticut State University. Her research explores how photography and fine art shape public perceptions of housing crisis and belonging. She has held fellowships with the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art and the American Conference for Irish Studies. She earned her PhD in Cultural History from Drew University.This event is in English. The conference is free and open to the public, but space is limited, so registration is required. Admission to the museum is included with your registration.Image :Thomas Annan, Vue du n° 118 montrant un groupe d’habitants, High Street, Glasgow, Écosse, tirage gélatino-argentique sur albumine.
