The book launch and panel celebrates the publication of the volume Nomadic Camera: Photography, Displacement and Dis:connectivities (Leuven University Press, 2026). The Nomadic Camera investigates the technical, medial and aesthetic relationships between photography and displacement from both historical and contemporary perspectives.
The contributing authors adopt the term ‘nomadic’– signifying a transitory form of existence – to explore photography beyond national boundaries and static notions of being. Viewing photography as an integral part of this history of mobility and migration, the book examines the interplay between the concepts of the ‘nomadic’ and the ‘camera’, offering new perspectives on photography as a medium in motion.
Participants: Burcu Dogramaci and Winfried Gerling (editors) and Svea Braeunert, Anna Sophia Messner und Fabienne Liptay (authors)
