Bill Balaskas and Stefanos Tsivopoulos

Archive Crisis, Lecture/ Screening at Princeton University, Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies, Scheide Caldwell House, Room 103, on Thursday, 5 May 2016, 6 pm.

On Wednesday March 2nd Wiels, centre for contemporary art in Brussels hosts the book launch of Archive Crisis by artist Stefanos Tsivopoulos.

Archive Crisis consists of previously unpublicized visual and textual records that document three distinct political moments in Greece’s recent past; the Truman Doctrine, the Dictatorship of the Colonels, and the Marxist Revolutionary Organization 17 November. Tsivopoulos organized and edited this material in the form of a multi-layered visual essay, after an extensive research into both private and public media archives over a period of seven years. Tsivopoulos is interested in these records as visual by-products of tumultuous political times, marked by nationalist propaganda, crypto-colonialism and terrorism. He reintroduces them as the remainders of an unsettling past and a present in crisis.

The book furthermore includes commissioned essays by Dimitris Antoniou (Adjunct Assistant Professor Hellenic Studies at Columbia University), Hilde de Bruijn (freelance curator and Curator at the Cobra Museum of Modern Art) and Alfredo Cramerotti (Director of MOSTYN, Llandudno, Wales) providing academic reflection and linking these historical images to a broader contemporary context.

On Tuesday March 1st, 2016 Manifesta (Amsterdam) organizes the book launch of Archive Crisis by former Manifesta 8 artist Stefanos Tsivopoulos.

Archive Crisis consists of unpublicized visual and textual records that document three distinct political moments in Greece’s recent past; the Truman Doctrine, the Dictatorship of the Colonels, and the Marxist Revolutionary Organization 17 November. Tsivopoulos organized and edited this material in the form of a multi-layered visual essay, after an extensive research in both private and public media archives over a period of seven years. Tsivopoulos is interested in these records as visual by-products of tumultuous political times, marked by, among other things, nationalist propaganda, crypto-colonialism and terrorism and reintroduces them as the remainders of an unsettling past and a present in crisis. The visual essay further focuses on the tactility and pictorial idiosyncrasies of these photographs in light of the immateriality of the digital age.

The book furthermore includes commissioned essays by Dimitris Antoniou, Hilde de Bruijn, Alfredo Cramerotti providing academic reflection and linking these historical images to a broader contemporary context. Dimitris Antoniou is an interdisciplinary scholar teaching in the Program in Hellenic Studies at Columbia University. Hilde de Bruijn is a freelance curator and a curator at the Cobra Museum of Modern Art. Alfredo Cramerotti is the director of MOSTYN, Llandudno, Wales and was one of the curators of Manifesta 8.
