Název v původním jazyce
Charles University's 'non-collection' of photographs
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The term "non-collection" was first used by the British visual anthropologist Elizabeth Edwards in a critical series of blog posts, Institutions and the Productions of "Photographs " in 2016. The concept refers to the traditionally understood hierarchy of collection values and categories in memory institutions, art museums, institutional archives, etc. Photographs in these cases "remain invisible practices, non-collections beyond the boundary of the archive, yet equally significant as epistemological and thus historical and cultural players". The lecture "Charles University's 'non-collection' of photographs" introduced the photographs and glass slides in the possession of the Institute of Art History at Charles University Prague as "significant epistemological, historical and cultural actors" and as potentially useful tools in the contemporary teaching of art history in broader cultural, ideological and technological contexts. The non-collection reflects, among other things, the history of art history teaching in Prague, when at first photographs were collected for teaching purposes mainly by teachers at the German university, and only with the establishment of the art history department at the Czech part of the university did the Czechs start building a photographic archive as well. The collection demonstrates the diverse uses of photography for teaching art history - not only as an illustrative representation and a teaching tool of style, but also as an expression of the political ambitions of various national and linguistic groups in Bohemia.
