BPB14 COMMUNITIES COLLECTIVES & COLLABORATION 4 October – 2 November 2014 Welcome to Brighton Photo Biennial, the UK’s largest photography festival, returning this year for its sixth edition, taking place in venues and public spaces in Brighton & Hove and beyond Introducing the theme of Communities, Collectives & Collaboration, BPB14 presents a series of remarkable exhibitions and more than 50 events. All are bound together by a common approach; photography based projects produced through innovative, new and unexpected partnerships. This includes photographers and artists collaborating with environmentalists, scientists, young and older people, photo and film archives, local and international communities and digital networks. From collusion and intrusion in paparazzi photography, to live underwater cameras recording the creation of an artificial reef; to connect and disconnect in communities; to explorations of national and international photography collectives, to ambitious participatory projects, BPB14 presents previously unseen perspectives on photography. Prompting questions around custodianship, authorship, mythologies, image-making, sharing and collaborative processes, BPB14

explores photography’s role in relation to these larger ideas. The core programme runs throughout October with exhibitions throughout the city of Brighton & Hove and across the region. The events programme is geared towards different interests, experience and ages, offers many opportunities to get involved and participate in BPB14, including workshops, talks, tours, screenings and online digital projects. BPB14’s programme is outlined here. To find out more, the BPB14 team are on hand throughout October at our pop-up shop and information hubs at Jubilee Library and Circus Street Market in central Brighton, or connect with us online for updates and ways to take part. We look forward to welcoming you. #BPB14 bpb.org.uk BPB14 is produced by Photoworks, an organisation dedicated to enabling participation in photography, the most democratic medium of contemporary visual culture. photoworks.org.uk 3

Amore e Piombo: The Photography of extremes in 1970’s Italy Enter a tumultuous era with this unparalleled collection of photographs made by a group of photographers working for the Rome-based agency Team Editorial Services

The press photographers constantly shifted between battling film stars at play and the reality of near civil war unfolding on the streets. Politics and celebrity are brought together through the paparazzi style of alto contrasto, collusion and intrusion. Alluded to, although less visible, are the murkier dealings of clandestine groups linked to the Italian Secret Services, The P2 Masonic Lodge the CIA and NATO, operating against the backdrop of the extremes of the Red and Black Brigades. Archive prints are presented alongside television news footage, film sequences and sound recordings. A choice of Italian photo-books of the period, loaned from the Martin Parr collection, add a further layer of reference. 4

Forty years on and Italy’s ‘Years of Lead’ are still shrouded in mystery. Despite countless attempts to unravel the political confusion of the times, key tragic events, from the Piazza Fontana bombing in Milan in 1969, to Aldo Moro’s 1978 kidnap and assassination by the Red Brigades, remain unresolved. Instead of offering answers, Amore e Piombo (Love and Lead) presents for scrutiny the press photography of this most turbulent and tangled decade.

A return to elsewhere Two locations, two photographers, working together to exchange experiences and perspectives, sharing the process of making to create a single project Photographers, Kalpesh Lathigra (UK) and Thabiso Sekgala (SA), have used the framework of collaboration to develop work at the same time in two cities. Together, they have chosen to explore communities and their

representation, exploring understandings of belonging, histories, silence, memory and loss. Lathigra/Sekgala chose to begin their project in connection with Indian communities in two primary locations Marabastad and

#BPB14

Laudium, South Africa and in Brighton, UK. Marabastad was a culturally and racially diverse community before forced relocation in the late 1940’s. Closeby, Laudium, on the outskirts of Pretoria was proclaimed an Indian Township in 1961 under the Group Areas Act. One of Brighton’s largest ethnic minority groups is of Indian descent, a community with an interesting historical back story relating to the British Indian Army, whose soldiers fought in WW1 and were temporarily hospitalised in the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, a building inextricably linked with Brighton’s identity. Both photographers are interested in the role of photography in representing communities, creating narratives and raising questions around truth and fiction, notions of connection and disconnection.

Lathigra/Sekgala’s collaborative project combines contemporary images with co-authored captions to create pertinent associations between people, time and place. These include retrieved stories and notes from archives. Lathigra/Sekgala have produced a new digital artwork (p14) to complement and extend the project.

ÂŠ The Photocopy Club

The Photocopy Club: A Giant Collective Aiming to get photography off the Internet and printed matter back into the hands of the public, The Photocopy Club presents an international exchange

All Photocopy Club exhibitions are based on photographers submitting work printed via the use of a black and white photocopier/ xerox machine. In partnership with Brighton Photo Biennial and Joburg Photo Umbrella, The Photocopy Club made an open call to photographers of all ages and ability to form collectives with their friends, families and peers, and to submit works on the theme of “community”. Photographers around the world submitted black and white copies of their work and created a “giant collective”, exhibiting both here in Brighton and in Johannesburg. Matt Martin from The Photocopy Club explains, “We asked people to come up with a collective name and make individual or group images that work around the theme of community. For example: music, religion, sport, art, sex, politics, to think about the

cities they live in and the communities living within it.” Bringing international photographers and local communities together, The Photocopy Club makes photography in print affordable and accessible to people from all different walks of life. All exhibited works will be available to purchase. Matt Martin will run a one day workshop on zine making, the history of zines and how photographers use them today.

Five Contemporary Photography Collectives An exploration of collaborative working methods, with five very different contemporary photography collectives

These contemporary views on photography provide a route into current conversations around the resurgence of photography collectives. Invited for their varying styles and their approaches to working together, ABC, Burn My Eye, RUIDO Photo, Sputnik Photos and Uncertain States outline the impact of this way of working, nationally and internationally. Considered here is the dynamic, democratic process of navigating and negotiating a cohesive voice through the notion of a collective. The international group ABC create, engage and communicate on issues concerning self-publishing. Their project ABCEUM re-imagines the museum as a book installation. Each of the museum’s 10

rooms is a different artist’s book. Visitors can wander a floor-plan of assembled books. ABCEUM is an evolving project with its own changing programme of exhibitions – much like any museum. In ABCEUM, however, the idea of a museum itself can become its own subject. Burn My Eye grew from a small group of photographers with a shared passion for straight, unposed photography. Wanting to encourage personal development through critique and discussion with respected peers, the members embraced different sensibilities and cultural backgrounds that allowed for a broad set of influences in a close-knit environment. RUIDO Photo, based in Barcelona, is the culmination of the work of a group of photographers, designers and journalists,

who undertake independent photography projects with strong social content and cultural commitment with the clear aim of raising awareness, encouraging reflection and provoking social change. Sputnik Photos is an international collective founded in 2006 by nine documentary photographers from Central and Eastern Europe, united in their desire to observe and describe their shared post-Soviet experience. Photobooks are an important feature of their practice, made in collaboration with journalists and writers to convey a rounded sense of each project. Uncertain States is a lens-based, artist-led project releasing a quarterly broadsheet that expands critical visual dialogue. Themes

include how our perceptions of key issues, such as politics, religion and personal identity, are formed. They showcase established and emerging artists through their exhibitions, monthly talks and web-based publications, showing work from all photographic genres. They work in partnership with other organisations, developing an extensive community and opportunities for their contributors.

REEF Artist Simon Faithfull’s new commission, REEF, began in August 2014 off the Dorset coast, where a boat made a last voyage out to sea and was sunk to become an artificial reef – serving as an underwater sculpture and a lasting legacy for marine conservation and biodiversity

Five cameras mounted on board are monitoring the boat’s transformation for a year, transmitting live images via a dedicated website, reeflive.org and also relayed to this exhibition. “The camera is fascinating to me as a counterpoint to the subjective act of seeing an external eye. A more reliable, objective, non-human recording device.” says Simon Faithfull. A team of marine biologists has worked with the artist to realise his most ambitious project to date. “You could say that all my major works over the years have come into being as the result of complex collaborations and the assembling of unexpected teams.” REEF poetically explores the idea of collapse and renewal. It is not uncommon for vessels to be deliberately sunk to create

more diverse underwater eco-systems. Faithfull has harnessed this practice to create an extraordinary artwork, embracing and celebrating the often unforeseen outcomes of working in collaboration.

So Like You Working in collaboration with online communities, artist Erica Scourti sets out to make sense of the overload of images online and how personal snapshots collide and mingle with millions of others through social platforms

#BPB14

So Like You highlights the tensions between individual and collective authorship in network culture. How can a creative individual be recognised as unique, when Instagram has made everyone’s photos look the same? What value has a snapshot once it’s uploaded and absorbed into a larger ‘cloud’ of image data? Erica Scourti begins her investigation by uploading her personal archive of scanned photographs, letters, flyers and other ephemera to Google’s reverse image search engine for analysis. Using pattern recognition algorithms, she discovers other photographers who have shared images with a similar visual footprint ‘just like hers’. This echoes the method used by photographers to discover instances of copyright

violation and defend their individual authorship. However, in Scourti’s work, the process initiates a creative exchange with other image makers who are invited to collaborate with her by tagging and describing photos, a process that in turn feeds back into an analysis of Scourti’s own archive of digital photos. Pathways are created between bodies of images that question authenticity in an increasingly mediated, recorded life.

Plane Materials Cornford & Cross and Andrew Lacon explore the dialogue between photography and sculpture For PLANE MATERIALS Lacon draws on an historic Rome album and photographs from the Library of Birminghamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archive. Andrew Lacon is specifically concerned with the framing and methodology behind photographs of Roman sculpture. Established artist duo, Cornford & Cross work differently, a non-studio based practice, they create work through discussion and debate, positing different conceptual ideas. Their work Afterimage alludes to the an experience of a community and asks 16

viewers to question their role in the exhibition. This collaborative exhibition is a new commission exploring historical and contemporary conversations around how photography is represented.

Real Britain 1974: Co-Optic and Documentary Photography Uncovering a lost episode in the development of British social documentary photography, this exhibition explores how the Co-Optic group attempted to establish an authentic representation of 1970’s Britain

Enoch Powell electioneering, photography by Paul Hill © Co-optic, 1974

By 1974, documentary realism had a special prominence in English television, film and photography. The Co-Optic group laid claim to combine the new ‘independent photography’ inspired by US examples, with the style and forms of 60’s photo-journalism. The Co-Optic group included then emerging practitioners Martin Parr, Daniel Meadows, Sirkka-Liisa Konttinen, Nick Hedges, Fay Godwin, Paul Hill, Ron McCormick and Gerry Badger, driven by the organisational skills of fellow photographer and entrepreneur, Stephen Weiss. This exhibition, celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Co-Optic group’s Real

Britain postcard project and will be the first public showing of this material from the Co-Optic archive. It features original prints donated by the photographers, posters, newsletters and ephemera related to seminars, exhibitions and events organised by Co-Optic, alongside the Real Britain project: a two-part edition of twenty-five photographic postcards.

German photographer Jan von Holleben collaborates with young people from Brighton & Hove and employs perspective, props and a box of tricks that owes much to the early film pioneers celebrated in Hove Museum’s extraordinary collection. Exploring a mysterious archive of unidentified slides and negatives, Jan and his young team set out to discover what the strange images might depict, and to construct incredible machines that might help analyse them. Von Holleben says: ‘Everything is possible (in my work) – we can fly to a distant universe, build machines that can otherwise only be dreamt of, see ghosts, or shrink ourselves to dwarf-size; there are no limits apart from our own responsibilities and skills. 20

This is how we play photography.’ Modelling this project on early Hove film-makers such as George Albert Smith and James Williamson, Jan von Holleben creates ambiguous images that change perceptions of reality and invite us to explore history repeating itself.

Sustainable Materials Using sustainable healthy products, with low embodied energy, sourced locally, made from renewable or waste resources Amanda Jackson: My initial thinking for this project, to concentrate on building work taking place in Brighton & Hove, all changed when I met with Cat Fletcher, a wonder of information about all things sustainable and reducing waste. I learnt more about the reuse side of sustainable materials. As I am primarily a portrait photographer I wanted to include people in the series. I have focused on showing how everyone can get involved with reuse and that it can be fun and imaginative, allowing for the creation of individual pieces, buildings and artwork. The majority of the photos show the people behind reuse in Brighton & Hove.

Land Use and Wildlife Protecting and restoring biodiversity and natural habitats through appropriate land use and integration into the built environment Murray Ballard: During this commission I treated people and their conservation work as the main subject matter. My subjects would ask why I was taking photographs of them, rather than the plants, animals and insects they were working with. But it’s people who have shaped the landscape more than anything else since they settled in this part of the world 5,500 years ago. I’ve learnt a lot by doing this project, especially how inter connected everything is in the natural world.

Zero Carbon Making buildings more energy efficient and delivering all energy with renewable technologies

Local and Sustainable Food Choosing low impact, local, seasonal and organic diets and reducing food waste

Jason Larkin: Focusing on buildings across Brighton & Hove that have been built or retrofitted to be more efficient, I utilised thermal imaging technology to illustrate the variations in temperature. Where possible I have included surrounding buildings that have not been retrofitted, thus creating a colour contrast between the two different buildings that would never otherwise have been visible with the human eye. The effect of the thermal radiation detected and the use of colour palates produces a striking and different style of image, but also one that references a more technical and scientific aesthetic.

Sam Faulkner: I wanted to tell the stories of a few local food producers. It was important that the food was produced locally, had a sustainable ethos and was for local consumption. The idea was to create three specific images for each food producer, making a series of triptychs. The first image was to be an environmental portrait of one producer or supplier, the second, a shot of the same person holding their produce or an ingredient and the third image an abstract detail or landscape shot of where the product comes from. It really doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take a huge amount of work or additional cost to drastically slash the food miles of most of what you eat.

Sustainable Transport Encouraging low carbon modes of transport to reduce emissions, reducing the need to travel Jonathan Goldberg: Such is the wealth of sustainable transport initiatives taking place in Brighton & Hove, that I initially felt overwhelmed at the task of doing justice to this theme in the allotted time. My subjects were an inspiration to me: entrepreneurs prompting positive societal change through risk-taking, determination and dedication, as well as individuals considering the environment in a small but equally meaningful way.

Sustainable Water Using water more efficiently in buildings and in the products we buy; tackling local flooding and water course pollution Thomas Ball: My intention has been to form a narrative between history, landscapes, people and infrastructure and highlight some of the ways local residents, businesses and the Council are conserving, protecting and recycling water today. Working on this series, I have been reminded about how disconnected many are from where our natural resources come from and where our waste ends up. In the case of water, it is important that we constantly remind ourselves what a vital resource it is and that we can’t take it for granted.

Zero Waste Reducing waste, reusing where possible, and ultimately sending zero waste to landfill Sophie Gerrard: This project began by exploring the numerous waste reduction, recycling and processing projects taking place in and around Brighton & Hove. As I met increasing numbers of creative and committed individuals, it became apparent that the emotional connections and emphasis © Syd Shelton/FotoDocument on community and collective working was Culture and Community an integral driving force. Capturing this Reviving local identity and wisdom; element of intimacy and passion was a key supporting and participating in the arts part of the project for me.

Syd Shelton: I see myself as a subjective photographic observer presenting a visual argument. My aim was to produce a balanced exhibition reflecting the diversity and inclusivity of Brighton & Hove – my adopted home. I also wanted to find a balance between the street pictures and the more formal set up shots such as the artists, musicians and allotmenteers. I had intended the project to be shot in black and white but by the time I shot the Kempton Carnival on the 7th of June it was obvious that this was a colour project. I shot the whole project on a digital range finder camera because it’s small and almost silent and it enables me to work fast and get in close without people feeling assaulted by the camera.

Health and Happiness Encouraging active, sociable, meaningful lives to promote good health and wellbeing. Valentina Quintano: This project looks at some of the actions people take, as individuals or in groups, to improve their quality of life, like socialising, getting connected, getting active and helping others. I have photographed what people said made their lives feel better; small things, ordinary things and looked at the beauty in those tiny moments, in those ordinary actions, celebrating the initiatives that bring people together to connect and communicate on specific issues, while trying to understand the needs that these actions have arisen from. This essay tries to give elements of reflection starting from the personal and the intimate. It collects a range of voices and ideas.

Equity and Local Economy Creating bioregional economies that support fair employment, inclusive communities and international fair trade Nick Waplington: I decided to take my brief for this project quite literally and split the images into the two groups derived from the title and then brought them together to create a confrontational duality. While there is a symbiosis existing between the two, equity in society can exist without direct involvement in the economy, but not vice versa. Human Economy is dependent upon the liberation of resources through equity whether that be human or financial. I looked at the young people of Brighton & Hove today for they are surely the equity of the future. I also tried to find new and ecological businesses to photograph that deal with the edge spaces of the city, businesses working with our natural resources to enhance our engagement with the world, resonating with the images of the young people whose future they are trying to protect.

Over its 67 year history, Magnum photographers have generated a rich archive of prints and material which, in the pre-digital age, was the mainstay of its image licensing business. Three invited selectors: visual and historical anthropologist Elizabeth Edwards, photographer Hannah Starkey and multi-media artist Uriel Orlow visited the archives, comprising over 68,000 prints, guided by the former Magnum archivist, Nick Galvin. This is the first time the resin coated print archive has formed the basis of a curated exhibition. The archive presents a snapshot in time, an imperfect history, and the selectors have worked individually and jointly to investigate narrative gaps and absent histories by looking beneath Magnum’s legendary status. Elizabeth Edwards is interested in 36

“people absorbed in their worlds.” Her selection is of “quiet images, often the theatre of ‘event’ is outside the photographic frame.” Uriel Orlow teases out pictorial associations: “Documentary images destined for newspapers and magazines are required to make an impact, to be memorable. But what about the all the other images, less direct and iconic, taken before or after key events, telling a more oblique story?” Hannah Starkey’s interest arises from the female perspective. “The women in the pictures had been captured by the male gaze over the latter half of the 20th century and collectively tell their own story. An alternative account of the past. I have presented a conversation between women through time; we the viewers are their witness.”

A Bold Experiment: Work and Play at Ditchling Guild A rare opportunity to see behind the doors of an experimental and inspiring artist community

Guild members in the weaving workshop © Ursula Hartleben

One of the most influential artist communities in 20th century Britain lived and worked in a cluster of buildings on the Common, north of Ditchling, East Sussex. The Guild of St Joseph and St Dominic was founded in 1920 by the sculptor and stone-carver Eric Gill and the printer Hilary Pepler. The Guild operated for over 60 years and is the subject of a new display of photography, curated for the Brighton Photo Biennial, showing the artistic community at work and play. Examples include: Eric Gill’s 1906 album of his visit to Rome including photographs of Trajan’s Column and stone cut street signs; 38

and images of the sculptor Joseph Cribb fishing from his rowing boat. With photographs from the museum collection and on loan from public and private archives, this temporary exhibition forms one of a number of displays in the recently reopened Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft.

Hysterical (Double Projection Film Still) Douglas Gordon, 1995, Image courtesy Southampton City Art Gallery

Twixt Two Worlds An exploration of the transition between still and moving images sees historic cinematic techniques and apparatus set alongside works from contemporary artists Inspired by the Barnes Brothersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; early cinema 23 collection at Hove Museum, Twixt Two Worlds takes the technique of double exposure and the visual effect of superimposition as starting points to explore the development of still and moving image across photography, magic lantern slides and cinema. Objects such as early cine cameras (c.1900) and magic lanterns (c.1850) sit alongside moving image works by contemporary artists like Douglas Gordon, Saskia Olde Wolbers and Jane & Louise Wilson.

A dark and satirical political thriller set during a time of internal political disturbance also explored in the BPB14 exhibition Amore e Piombo (p4). A psychopathic Roman police inspector (Gian Maria Volonté) cracks down with relish on the political dissidents of the day. After slashing the throat of his masochistic mistress (Florinda Bolkan), the inspector is perversely put in charge of the investigation. As director Petri’s split-second edits rocket back and forth between flashback and detection, this film is a biting critique of Italian police methods and authoritarian repression, a psychological study of a budding crypto-fascist and a probing who-dunnit.

For Teachers Space to Collaborate: Photography & Collaboration in the Classroom Wed 8 Oct 4 - 6pm FREE University of Brighton Grand Parade, Brighton

Our Learning & Participation team run popular training sessions for teachers with every Biennial. This year’s session will be directly inspired by the BPB14 theme. Artist and experienced trainer Annis Joslin leads a session for primary and secondary school teachers from diverse subject backgrounds and will explore a range of practical approaches to engaging with contemporary photographic practice in the gallery or classroom. The session will focus on collaborative approaches in photography. Acknowledging that many children and young people engage daily with photography via camera phones and photo sharing services like Instagram and Flickr, the session will explore how to employ these experiences towards more creative, collaborative and critical ways of thinking. The session will include case study examples, practical tips and a chance for participants try out various approaches for themselves. Bring your camera.
