EL PRESTIGIOSO FESTIVAL DE DOCUMENTALES “IFEF” premia “La Ciudad Invisible” producida por AntropoDocus con “The best foreign film 2009″ por su “antropologia de acción”

Ethnographic museum in Belgrade

 

El documental dirigido por Lucía Mbomio ha sido el premiado en dicha categoría. El jurado ha expresado así sus motivos:

The production team of Anthropodocus follows the aftermaths of the violent demolition of some houses by the police, records the various views and voices of the community members and documents the investigations and interpretation of anthropologists and government agencies involved in the process. Even we were not always satisfied with the camera and the editing we were pleased to see an example of political or ‘action anthropology’ where anthropological research and the documentation of the voices of various protagonists are brought together in a narrative and which successfully showcases anthropological research methods for a mainstream audience. 

ESP: “ Ha sido un placer ver este ejemplo de “acción antropológica” donde la investigación antropológica y la documentación acerca de varios de los protagonistas trabajan juntas en una misma narrativa y que muestra con éxito los métodos antropológicos de la investigación para una audiencia corriente.”

Visual Anthropology of Japan

A new semester has begun and Visual Anthropology of Japan students from all over the world are already out there in Osaka, Kyoto and beyond shooting and blogging. Their first set of posts with the theme of “Early Impressions” can be found and accessed by scrolling down to the Fall 2009 Student “Two-Frame Story” Photo Blogs section on the left. I am especially impressed and pleased with my students’ early impressions of Japan and how they challenge long-held stereotypes and frame them ethno-photographically with their cameras. They are already discovering aesthetics, cultural values and diversity in their new found research settings. Of special concern this semester is the ethics involved in taking photographs of Japanese people in public.
