ISABEL MUÑOZ
Beauty and Movement

LECTURE | 11.09.2013 | 17:30-19:00

Cité Auditorium (2nd floor) 3, rue Genistre, L-1623 Luxembourg Tango and Flamenco (1989) are considered the starting point for her unremitting search of the sentiments and emotions of world groups and cultures in an attempt to capture the expressions of beauty of the human body. She offers a fragmented version of the world and the human body, forcing us to look at them a little better and to reflect on beauty and movement. At the same time, she attempts to offer an insight into her own way of working. During the conference, her work, as well as images of the “making of”, will be projected.

MASSIMO VITALI
Contemporary Photography in the Age of the iPhone

LECTURE | 12.09.2013 | 17:30-19:00

Cité Auditorium (2nd floor) 3, rue Genistre, L-1623 Luxembourg In the human communities photographed by Massimo Vitali, there are specific kinds of modern (even definably Mediterranean or American) social habits to be observed in some of their characteristic configurations. Vitali frames his pictures of these reflexes with ironic and in the end anxious questions: is it only in “taking it easy,” “going on vacation,” or “being a tourist” that human beings nowadays peacefully group themselves in the cocoon of their own kind?
