PHOTOGRAPHY & MODERN ARCHITECTURE

Architecture and photography have maintained a close relation since the
inception of the photographic field. Investigating the nature of this relations
as well as identifying the fabric of their multidimensional dialogues
constitutes an extremely rich field of research, one that has been gaining
ever more relevance in actual agenda.

Starting from CEAA’s currently unfolding research project – Photography,
Modern Architecture and the 'School of Oporto', Interpretions around Teófilo
Rego Archive (FAMEP) – this conference aims to understand possible
configurations of the relations emerging from the fields of Architecture and
Photography as well as from their respective histories and theories.

It is therefore our propose to explore privileged relationships between
photographers and architects, uses of photographic imagery and its
associations with architecture, practices of architectural representation in
their associations with photography and the appropriation of the
photographic medium by the architect. Assemble a theoretical body of
knowledge having for its foundations common arguments between
architecture and photography – e.g. the cases of spatial issues or the use of
light as a conceptual tool – as well as any case studies and different
readings of architectonic and photographic experiments are also some of
our goals.
