Conference: Reimagining One’s Own
Freitag, 03. Dezember 2021 - 10:00 Uhr
Volkskundemuseum Wien
The photo collection of the Volkskundemuseum Wien was established along the lines of a “comparative ethnology of Europe” in the late nineteenth century, focusing on the territories of the Habsburg Monarchy. Today, the assembled materials raise manifold questions about their origins and, as a consequence, about the visual ethnography of “one’s own”.
