  Galleri Image præsenterer udstillingen Good Hope Keepers and The Mirrored Portraits of the Ocean af den grønlandske kunstner Inuuteq Storch.Fernisering: 22. oktober kl. 16-18Udstillingen viser kontrasten mellem 1800-tallets og nutidens Grønland. Inuuteq S

  torchs egne samtidsfotografier af sin fødeby, Sisimiut (fra den kommende bog "Keepers of the Ocean"), mødes med arkivprojeket ”Mirrored - Portraits of Good Hope”, hvor han har fundet fotos fra perioden 1889-1935 af Grønlands første fotograf, John "Ujuut" Møller.For Inuuteq Storch er udstillingens to værkgrupper en del af et større arbejde med at sætte et nyt fokus på grønlandsk selvfremstilling og postkolonial bevidsthed om national stolthed og identitet. Udstillingen bringer de to grønlandske fotografers værker sammen hen over et spænd på mere end 100 år, og udforsker stedsidentitetens udvikling set fra folkets eget perspektiv.Inuuteq Storch er vokset op i Grønland, hvor landskabet og vejret er dominerende og hvor naturen bestemmer livets rytme. Men de historier, som fortælles om livet i dette landskab, har traditionelt været præget af danske rejsende og deres blik på naturen og folket. I Storchs kunstneriske arbejde søger han efter sin og andre grønlænderes egne visuelle fortælling: Hvordan ser billederne ud, når de kommer indefra og ikke udefra?I forbindelse med åbningen for udstillingen lanceres bogen Inuuteq Storch: John Møller - Mirrored, Portraits of Good Hope, som er udgivet af Roulette Russe.Inuuteq Storch til Photobook Week AarhusInuuteq Storch vil desuden kuratere en udstilling på Galleri Image under Photobook Week Aarhus, som afholdes 14.-17. oktober. Udstillingen Eye to Eye viser fotobøger fra grønlandske og internationale kunstnere og fortæller en historie om Grønland i billeder set ud fra folkets eget perspektiv.Symposium: Blikke på GrønlandI forlængelse af udstillingen arrangeres symposiet, Blikke på Grønland, om forskellige indgangsvinkler til Grønlandsk kunst, som afholdes på Det Grønlandske Hus Aarhus. Symposiet er arrangeret i et samarbejde mellem Galleri Image, Aarhus Feminist Collective, rum46 og Art Weekend Aarhus. Her vil en række akademikere og kulturaktører uddybe på de samtaler udstillingen Good Hope Keepers and the Mirrored Portraits of the Ocean lægger op til. De deltagende tæller bl.a. den grønlandsk-lettiske billedkunstner og kurator Bolatta Silis-Høegh, den danske billedkunstner Anne Haaning, Stine Lundberg Hansen, tidligere formidlingsinspektør og kurator på Nuuk Kunstmuseum, samt Inuuteq Storch selv.Om kunstnerenInuuteq Storch er kunstfotograf og er uddannet på International Center of Photography i New York og fra fotoskolen Fatamorgana i Danmark. Han har udstillet i Grønland, Danmark, USA, Norge og Columbia, og har udgivet fotobøgerne Porcelain Souls og Flesh.Læs mere på kunstnerens egen hjemmeside: www.inuuteqstorch.comUdstillingen og symposiet er støttet af Statens Kunstfond, A.P.

  Good Hope Keepers and The Mirrored Portraits of the Ocean by Inuuteq Storch

  Fra October 22, 2021 16:00 til December 19, 2021 17:00

  Fernisering:

  Sted: Galleri Image Vestergade 29, 8000 Aarhus, Danmark

  Galleri Image presents the exhibition Good Hope Keepers and The Mirrored Portraits of the Ocean by the Greenlandic artist Inuuteq Storch. Exhibition opening: 22 October 4-6 pmThe exhibition juxtaposes 19th century Greenland with the Greenland of today. In

  uuteq Storch’s own contemporary photographs of his hometown Sisimiut (from the upcoming book "Keepers of the Ocean") are presented alongside the archival project ”Mirrored - Portraits of Good Hope”, where he has gotten a hold of photos by Greenland’s first photographer John "Ujuut" Møller from the period 1889-1935.To Inuuteq Storch, the two series of artworks in the exhibition are a part of a larger effort to promote Greenlandic self expression and postcolonial consciousness about national pride and identity. The exhibition connects the works of the two Greenlandic photographers over a period of more than 100 years and explores the development of the geographic identity as seen from the perspective of its people. Inuuteq Storch grew up in Greenland, where the landscape and weather is dominant and where nature rules over life’s rhythms. But the stories being told about life in this landscape have historically been influenced by Danish travelers, whose views on its nature and its people have affected how they have been portrayed. In Storch’s art he is searching for his own visual narrative, as well as that of other Greenlandic people: How do the images look, when they come from within and not from the outside?In connection with the opening of the exhibition the book, Inuuteq Storch: John Møller - Mirrored, Portraits of Good Hope published by Roulette Russe, will be launched.Inuuteq Storch at Photobook Week AarhusInuuteq Storch will also curate an exhibition at Galleri Image during Photobook Week Aarhus, which will take place 14-17 October. The exhibition Eye to Eye shows photobooks from Greenlandic and international artists and tells a story about Greenland in pictures seen from the perspective of the Greenlandic people.Symposium: Gazes on GreenlandIn conjunction with the exhibition, a symposium will be arranged, Gazes on Greenland, about different points of view on Greenlandic art, which will take place at The Greenlandic House Aarhus. The symposium is arranged in a collaboration between Galleri Image, Aarhus Feminist Collective, rum46, and Art Weekend Aarhus. A group of academics and cultural people will expand on those conversations presented in the exhibition Good Hope Keepers and the Mirrored Portraits of the Ocean. The participants are, the Greenlandic-Latvian visual artist and curator Bolatta Silis-Høegh, the Danish visual artist Anne Haaning, Stine Lundberg Hansen, former dissemination director and curator at the Nuuk Art Museum, and Inuuteq Storch himself, among others.About the artistInuuteq Storch (b. 1989) lives and works in Greenland.

PWA focuses on the rapidly growing international interest in photobooks and represents a continuous study of the evolution and role of the medium. PWA presents the photobook to the general public and to individuals who work professionally with photobooks and photography, be it from an artistic, communication-related or academic standpoint. User involvement, openness and dialogue are key words when it comes to the form and content of the festival. For this reason, PWA has placed great emphasis on inviting a large number of exhibitors and speakers who can present the photobook in a cross-disciplinary perspective. This has made it possible to exhibit significant but rare photobooks that have been discussed by researchers, photographers, leading curators, architects and many other qualified contributors from around the world.Photobook Week Aarhus 2021 is supported by The Politiken Foundation, Dreyers Fond, The Obel Family Foundation, the City of Aarhus (Kulturudviklingspuljen), The Frimodt-Heineke Foundation, Instituto Camões and the Portuguese Embassy in Denmark.

PWA fokuserer på den voksende internationale interesse for fotobøger og repræsenterer en løbende undersøgelse af mediets rolle og udvikling. Photobook Week Aarhus formidler til den brede offentlighed såvel som til de, der arbejder professionelt med fotobogen og fotografiet - uanset om de gør det fra et kunstnerisk, formidlingsmæssigt eller akademisk udgangspunkt. Brugerinddragelse, åbenhed og dialog er nøgleord i henhold til festivalens form og indhold, og Photobook Week Aarhus har derfor altid lagt stor vægt på at invitere en lang række udstillere og oplægsholdere, der kan formidle fotobogen i et tværfagligt perspektiv. Det har således været muligt at udstille vigtige men svært tilgængelige fotobøger, som er blevet diskuteret af internationale og nordiske fotoforskere, fotografer, ledende kuratorer, arkitekter og mange andre kvalificerede bidragsydere.Photobook Week Aarhus 2021 er støttet af Politiken-Fonden, Dreyers Fond, Det Obelske Familiefond, Kulturudviklingspuljen (Aarhus Kommune), Frimodt-Heineke Fonden, Instituto Camões og Portugals Ambassade i Danmark.
