Nytt poddavsnitt! Vi ska fördjupa oss i Dayanita Singhs konstnärskap och främst hennes verk ”Mona in the Archive” från 2022. Singh är Hasselbladspristagare för år 2022 och den första pristagaren som härstammar från Indien. I vårt poddavsnitt berättar vi om Dayanita Singhs intresse för arkiv, både som motiv och som presentationsform. Likaså berättar vi mer om Singhs kreativa koncept, när hon skapar böcker och västar som hon ser som utställningar eller museer. Inte minst berättar vi om hennes vänskap med eunucken Mona Ahmed, som har figurerat i många av hennes fotografier, även efter hennes bortgång. Vi berättar mer om Dayanita Singhs första möte med Mona Ahmed, om hennes livsöde och inspiration för flera generationer av trans- och queerpersoner i Indien och om eunuckernas speciella ställning i det indiska samhället. Och vad är det för röda tygbylten som Dayanita Singh fotograferade i serien ”Time Measures” från 2016 och hur liknar hon dem vid människoporträtt? Allt detta och mycket mer får du höra i det senaste avsnittet av Konsthistoriepodden! Support till showen http://supporter.acast.com/konsthistoriepodden. Hosted on Acast.

Körmanifestation i Uppsala för Ukraina, Hasselbladspriset till fotografen Dayanita Singh, recension av teaterpjäsen Kulla-Gulla, Spotify jämställdhetssatsar
Hur ser krig ut? Bilderna är välbekanta: Ett barn med nalle i hand framför stridsvagn; ett bombat hus; människor i trasiga kläder. Även om fotografierna är sanna finns en risk med stereotypa bilder av kriget, menar fotografen Anastasia Taylor-Lind. I flera år har den brittisk-svenska fotografen Anastasia Taylor-Lind arbetat med projektet #5Kfromthefrontline i en radie av fem kilometer från fronten i Donbas har hon sökt efter bilder som visar vad krig också kan vara: en lågintensiv förstörelse som inte visar sig i form av de vanliga symbolerna för krig.VAD ÄR EN FÖRFATTARES UPPGIFT I KRIG?Andrey Kurkov, en av Ukrainas främsta författare, skulle ha besökt Vilnius och London i dagarna, men har släppt alla inbokade utlandsresor och författarbesök för att stanna i Ukraina för att berätta om kriget och för att hjälpa människor på flykt.HASSELBLADS FOTOPRIS TILL INDISKA FOTOGRAFEN DAYANITA SINGHIdag tillkännagavs vinnaren av ett av världens mest prestigefulla fotopris, Hasselbladpriset: den indiska fotografen Dayanita Singh.

In this first episode of 2022, Ben Luke talks to Dayanita Singh about her influences, from art to literature, music and film, and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Singh, who was born in 1961 in New Delhi, India, is one of the most pioneering photographers of recent decades. She resists the idea of a single, decisive image, and instead presents her richly diverse, poetic photographs in the context of constructed environments, bespoke archival structures and artists' books. She continues to push the presentation of her photography in new directions. In the conversation, she recalls how her mother's photography was a “traumatic” part of her childhood and remembers an early opportunity to photograph the celebrated tabla player Zakir Hussain. She talks about her passion for the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke and Michael Ondaatje, the revelatory visits to Shankar's Dolls Museum in Delhi, and about her remarkable project documenting Mona, a lifelong friend and collaborator. Plus, she answers all our usual questions, including the ultimate one: what is art for? Dayanita Singh: Dancing with My Camera, Gropius Bau, Berlin, 18 March-7 August 2022. The exhibition tours to Museum Villa Stuck, Munich, MUDAM Luxembourg, the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, Porto, and Les Rencontres d'Arles, France.

In 2019, as part of the artistic programme commemorating Geoffrey Bawa's 100th birthday, Lunuganga hosted a series of installations by artists and makers from Sri Lanka and abroad, in a series where the garden was explored as a site of hospitality and a place of encounter. Each artist responded to Bawa's practice and his garden through a unique, site-specific work developed over an almost two-year period. Launched in January 2020 on the cusp of a global pandemic, the works endured a time of unprecedented uncertainty, and offered pause for reflection on the meanings of generosity and intimacy. Marking the closing of The Gift, the five artists, Kengo Kuma, Lee Mingwei, Chandragupta Thenuwara, Dayanita Singh and Dominic Sansoni will speak with Suhanya Raffel, (Executive Director at M+ Museum in Hong Kong and trustee, Geoffrey Bawa and Lunuganga Trust) about their experiences and processes making and engaging with work in this last year.
Jordan Weitzman gets together with Dayanita Singh, whose work often blurs the lines between bookmaking and exhibiting. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
This episode we are hugely excited to be joined by the definition defying artist Dayanita Singh. Based in New Delhi, India, Dayanita started taking photographs in the early 1980s, soon expanding into photojournalism. Her practice has grown to span photography, bookmaking, installations, and perhaps most famously since 2012, museum directing. Her work has been presented at the Hayward Gallery in London, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt, the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, New Delhi, as well the Venice Biennale. Her work is also in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate in London, as well as the subject of several books. She is the winner of multiple awards and perhaps most well-known for her Museum Bhavan, which won the 2017 PhotoBook of the Year in the Paris Photo–Aperture Foundation PhotoBook Awards and, in 2018, was awarded the Infinity Award of the International Center of Photography. You can follow Dayanita on Instagram @dayanitasingh or visit her website. In addition, we also discuss the Indian Tabla Drummer Zakir Hussain. You can learn more about him on the National Endowment for the Arts website. For images, artworks, and more behind the scenes goodness, follow @artfromtheoutsidepodcast on Instagram.
Photographer Hari Katragadda & writer/editor Shweta Upadhyay were awarded The Alkazi Foundation for the Arts' Photobook Grant 2020 for their collaboration 'I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing you'.

In the first episode of Culture in a Time of Crises, artist Dayanita Singh talks to Shwetal A. Patel about her three-decade journey in photography, her bookmaking practice, and its performative aspects, the Mobile Museums she produces as well as her surprise book release at Museum of Innocence in Istanbul.
As many return to old photographs for consolation, the artist Dayanita Singh reflects on the creative possibilities of our personal archives. In a call from her desk in New Delhi, a conversation with the acclaimed photographer about the future of the ‘art world,’ the cruelty of India’s lockdown, and taking the time to observe the beauty of the day’s light in one’s own home.
Dayanita Singh’s Museum Bhavan helps us reimagine what a museum is. The museum as an institution holds memory; what memories, and for whom? What would a museum without walls look like? How ought pieces that were historically stolen be engaged with now? What is the museum’s role in educating new migrants in this specific place? Join three brilliant cultural producers who are engaging/disrupting/rearranging in varying and strategic ways with the changing role of museums in society. Laura June Albert moderates ‘New Museology’ featuring Shaheen Nanji, Jordan Wilson and Marika Echachis-Swan. Tiffin Talks at ISF2018 was supported by Vancity.

Artist Dayanita Singh wasn’t happy taking photographs in the traditional way, preferring to create what she calls “book objects,” mini-exhibitions to showcase her work. Singh plays with the conventional language of art, and even calls herself an “off-set artist” to denote her preferred way to display her images. She is currently exhibiting in the Carnegie International exhibition in Pittsburgh, and she has a small retrospective of her book objects at Callicoon Fine Art on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. I talked to her about her love of images, a formative (and funny) experience she shared with Robert Frank, and the future of the artist book.

Eloise Maxwell and David Persky return to the podcast to discuss Sondra Perry and Dayanita Singh, two artists at the edge of the contemporary art world.
Interview of photographer Dayanita Singh
Dayanita Singh uses her photography to construct stories of a changing India.
Professor Sunil Khilnani returns with Incarnations. In the first programme he profiles the pioneering photographer Lala Deen Dayal. Born in 1844, Lala Deen Dayal would go on to become the court photographer for the fabulously wealthy sixth Nizam of Hyderabad, who dubbed him the "bold warrior of photography". Earlier in his career, his images of the historic monuments and architecture of India had become a sensation, and a means by which Indian landmarks could be appreciated in the West. Over subsequent decades, Deen Dayal's carefully arranged portraits would open a window on a second aspect of a splendid, idealized India: the lifestyles of the late nineteenth-century elite. Though India had at this high point of the Raj become the world's leading stage for status display, which often involved the shooting of tigers, a person's status wasn't quite fixed unless the moment itself was shot - ideally by Deen Dayal himself. "Deen Dayal captured a particular moment of elite indulgence and excess," says Sunil Khilnani. "Just before it was swept away." Like many successful artists, before him and since, Deen Dayal became adept at selling his patrons the images of themselves they most wanted to see, and share. And his story might be simply a portrait of an artist as a public relations man, if his artistry wasn't so compelling and historically revealing. Without him, we wouldn't understand so powerfully the moment when India became the world's exotic, wondrous playground for the wealthy, before the modern world got in the way. Featuring interviews with artist Dayanita Singh and art historian Deborah Hutton. Producer: Martin Williams Executive Producer: Martin Smith Original music composed by Talvin Singh.
Social media, as old as Cicero and as revolutionary as Christianity? Tom Standage and William Dutton join Philip Dodd to explore our networked world and to question whether social media alters historic mappings of power and authority. Photographer Dayanita Singh discusses her new retrospective at London's Hayward gallery and her approach to the camera. As part of Verdi 200, Radio 3's season celebrating the composer's bicentenary, music historian Sarah Lenton and scholar René Weis explore Verdi's passion for Shakespeare.
Apropå har träffat den indiska fotografen Dayanita Singh som lämnade fotojournalistiken för att få rum med Mahler, Italo Calvino och sin egen fars röst inuti bilden. En presentation av hennes verk visas just nu på Bildmuseet i Umeå. I programmet pratar vi om Utställningen: • "En fotografs äventyr" på Bildmuseet i Umeå Människor vi pratar med: • Fotografen Dayanita Singh Citat vi översatt: ”Vad är det som får er att ur er dags rörliga, obrutna flöde skära dessa en sekund tjocka skivor av tid? När ni kastar boll lever ni i nuet men så snart exponeringarnas taktfasta rytm smyger sig in i era kroppars rörelser är det inte längre leklusten som driver er utan lusten att återse er själva i framtiden, återfinna er själva om tjugo år på en gulnad pappersbit . Smaken för det spontana, naturliga, ur levande livet tagna fotografiet slår ihjäl spontaniteten, jagar nuet på flykten. Den avfotograferade verkligheten får genast en nostalgisk prägel, glädje som flytt på tidens vingar, ett drag av åminnelse, om så fotot togs i förrgår. Och livet man lever i för att fotografera det är redan i grunden en åminnelse av sig självt. Att tro att en ögonblicksbild är sannare än ett ateljéporträtt är en fördom.” Ur Gli amori difficili av Italo Calvino, översatt av Olov Hyllienmark Musik vi spelar: • Gustav Mahler, Symfoni nr. 1 i D-dur, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Dirigent Claudio Abbado Programledare: Jenny Teleman Fler röster: Kerstin Berggren
