Conférence d'Hajar Anvar (3^e cycle)

In visual art, space refers to areas around, between, or within components. The depicted space in photography, however, refers to a petrified space, which is cut off from a 'real', physically perceived world, and is limited to a frame. As a fragmented frame and timeless reproduction, the internal space of a photograph nevertheless conveys a kind of authenticity stemming from its original 'real' expanse, an authenticity which origin is to be found in the history of photography. In a close analysis of royal photographs of the late nineteenth century in Tehran, this study examines the possibilities of the counter effect of the photographic practice of mise-en-scène on spatial configuration and construction of scenic designed living spaces.
