Join us for a panel discussion with the editors of Picturing Peace (Jan 2025), Prof. Jolyon Mitchell, Prof. Jonathan Long, Dr Pippa Oldfield and Dr Tom Allbeson. Following this will be a drinks reception for all those who attend.
Book Description:
How can photographers, curators, and editors convey narratives of peace and not just stories of war? Providing interdisciplinary and international perspectives on timely debates, Picturing Peace explores humanitarianism and visual culture, community collaboration, collective memory, and imagined futures for creating and sustaining of civil societies. How things look and are perceived are not superficial issues; when it comes to war and conflict, photography is vitally relevant not only to documenting violence, but also to rebuilding peaceful societies.
