This fourth Museum Dialogues workshop explores photography as a participatory medium that enables public interaction and the development of new social dynamics and relationships, extending beyond an institution’s physical space.

Contributors share diverse approaches to using photography as a tool for civic engagement and activism, as well as methods to build photographic exhibitions and archives outside traditional institutional structures, giving agency to underrepresented communities, decentring mainstream narratives and driving social change. The discussion will address issues of ethics, ownership and guardianship, alongside institutional requirements for archiving co-created work produced through socially engaged practice.

Speakers:
Pål Henrik Ekern, Diversity Curator, Preus Museum, Norway
Tamsin Silvey, Cultural Programme Curator, Historic England, UK
Anthony Luvera, socially engaged artist, writer and educator, UK, in conversation with Carol McKay, writer and curator, UK
