A Conference at Tate Modern: Fri 28 Oct 2011,
10.30–17.30 & Sat 29 Oct 2011, 10.30–17.30
Why do so many contemporary artists, working across all
media (paintings, photographs, objects, installations,
live art), build on pictorial traditions of image
construction to set the scene for new narratives?
Variously described as tableau, dispositif and apparatus,
these related conditions have been analysed by some of the
most incisive thinkers on contemporary art and form the
subject of this symposium
The centrality of tableau to recent discussions about
photographic artistic practice is preceded by its presence
in France in discussion around an expanded field in
painting. Jean-François Chevrier has alluded to the return
of tableau as a term and its possible implications in The
Adventures of the Picture Form in the History of
Photography
Keynote presentations by Philip Armstrong, Fulvia
Carnevale, Jean-François Chevrier, Michael Fried, Michael
Newman and research papers by Moyra Derby, Adi Efal,
