assignment
General
CILAVS researches visual topics from the Hispanic and Lusophonic world, Latin America and the Caribbean . Readings, screenings, workshops and conferences will be held to debate the history and theory of visual forms , both Latin American and Iberian and beyond.
The research projects span a broad field, from cultural geography , museology , visual forms of the indigenous peoples of America and art history / iconography of the early modern era , to urban research , film studies , photography , media studies and studies of material culture .
Iberoamerican Museum of Visual Culture on the Web
To support research and for the interested general public, the CILAVS created the Iberoamerican Museum of Visual Culture on the Web , an interactive digital museum that includes images of culture in Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula:
- Relics and Selves: Iconographies of the National in Argentina , Brazil , and Chile , a 2003 been switched from Jens Anderman and Patience A. Schell curated text-image archive of three Nationalikonographien , which covers the last decades of the 19th century.
- Latin American photography and film sources in the UK , a project to create a cross-referenced directory of British image sources (photography and film) on Latin America from the mid- 19th century to the end of World War II . Britain's presence in Latin America left largely unexplored archives of images mainly in the fields of trade, diplomacy, agricultural production, geographical exploration, anthropology, culture and religion. The collaboration began with the British Film Institute , the Royal Geographical Society , the Royal Anthropological Institute and the British Museum and was to be further expanded by connecting all British archives. The project is supported by the Ostrovsky Family Fund .
- Weaving Communities of Practice , result of a research project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council on “Textiles, Culture and Identity in the Andes”.
