I. And Our Places, My Life, Brief as Photographs

With Ricardo Devesa and participating photographers.

The first of two conversations organised as part of the exhibition Seeing Is Inventing. In this session, Ricardo Devesa will be joined by participating photographers to reflect on the places that inhabit memory, the stories contained within images, and photography’s ability to register spaces and their temporalities which, as John Berger wrote, are “brief as photographs.”

Ricardo Devesa is an architect and holds a PhD in Architecture. He is the author of Domesticidad a la intemperie (Actar, 2022), a professor and researcher at La Salle School of Architecture, Universitat Ramon Llull, co-founder of urbanNext.net, and served as Editor-in-Chief of Actar Publishers for thirteen years. His research focuses on architectural theory, publishing and dissemination, relational logics, and the intersections between architecture, nature, and art.
