Välkommen till ett tvådagars-symposium om fotografi i barnlitteratur vid Institutionen för kultur och estetik den 19-20 mars, 2020. Öppet för alla.Hippolyte Bayard, 1842 (public domain)Evenemanget hålls på engelska.Photographs have been used to illustrate a great variety of genres within children’s literature. While many photographic illustrations from the beginning of the 20th century use staged scenes, or were part of the avantgarde experimentations within the media, documentary ambitions became increasingly common during the 1930s and 1940s and the photographic picturebook becomes a modern, educational and ideological medium. Many photographers and authors have created photobooks for children by combining photography with other artistic techniques, such as collage, photomontage and photograms. Inspired by ideas of a vanguard aesthetics, modernist artists often regarded photography as an aesthetic means to differentiate from the past in terms of form, style, and language. Similar kind of ideas can be traced in radical publishing for children during the 1960s and 1970s. As a result, within children’s literature, the choice of photography as a medium often expressed high aesthetic demands, but also ideological objectives. Thus, research concerning photography within children's literature is also closely connected to ideas and changes in the conceptions of childhood, which impact on the depiction of children in relation to cultural transformation and social change.    The symposium at Stockholm University will introduce leading scholars from seven countries and offers a meeting point for exchange of knowledge and research results within children's literature, illustration history and photography. The symposium is admission free and open for all.Speakers:Katharine Capshaw, Laurence Le Guen, Mette Kia Krabbe Meyer, Olle Widhe, Jane Wattenberg, Monica Ruethers, Marnie Campagnaro, Anita Wincencjusz-Patyna, Bettina Kümmerling-Meibauer, Jörg Meibauer and Elina Druker.ExhibitionA small exhibition with Karin Fryxell’s iconic Sotlugg-and Linlugg photobooks will be available at the symposium during Thursday.ProgrammeDay I 19 March09:30Welcome09:45–10:30 Olle Widhe Zacharias Topelius and Scherer and Engler’s Ein Tag aus dem Kinder-Leben from 187710:30–11:15Marnie Campagnaro “A successful photograph is worth as much as a story”: The influence of Photography on Bruno Munari’s picturebooksCoffee11:45–12:30Anita Wincencjusz-Patyna From Halley's Comet to Scout Kwapiszon: On Photomontage in Polish Children's Fiction in the 20th CenturyLunch13:45–14:30Mette Kia Krabbe MeyerImmigrants and Elves: The Everyday and the Fantastic in Danish Photographical Children’s Books14:30–15:15Jane Wattenberg Spellbound: Lona, Dare Wright’s Haunting Photo-FairytaleCoffee15:30–16:15Monica RüthersThe visual construction of an all-Soviet childhood in Soviet Photobooks16:15–17:00Bettina Kümmerling-Meibauer and Jörg MeibauerPortrait of the child as a socialist: An inquiry into photographic picturebooks of the GDRDay II 20 March09:30–10:15Laurence Le GuenFrom the ‘Children of all Lands Stories’ to the ‘Enfants du monde’ collection, providing a view of the Other in children’s literature10:15–11:00     Elina Druker In and out of focus: Anna Riwkin’s photojournalism and photographic picturebooksCoffee11:30–12:30Katharine CapshawImages that Control and Disrupt: The United States’ Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and 1970sFinal words
