Regards posés. Hammams de la Médina de Tunis.

Exposition de photographies à Paris – Institut des Cultures de l’Islam (19 rue Léon, 75018)

Du 11 février au 3 avril 2016.invitation-vernissage-expo-238x300

Vernissage le 11 février 2016 de 18h à 20h.

L’exposition Regards Posés. Hammams de la Médina de Tunis présentée à l’Institut des Cultures d’Islam tente de restituer auprès du public parisien les multiples dimensions matérielles et immatérielles des hammams de la Médina de Tunis ainsi que les défis posés à leur sauvegarde contemporaine. Les images suggèrent l’évanescence de ces espaces oniriques, leur profonde intégration dans la vie sociale de la Médina, la précarité et l’exclusion de certains usagers des hammams ainsi que la brûlante passion de la dernière génération de propriétaires, viscéralement attachés à leurs patrimoines.

19 photographes tunisiens et étrangers ont été sélectionnés et invités à combler le vide iconographique sur les hammams et à poser de nouveaux regards sur ces différents univers. Bien que ce terrain d’étude soit délicat, intime et complexe, une complicité artistique a pu naître grâce à l’accueil et à l’enthousiasme des propriétaires, à la disponibilité des clients, ainsi qu’à la délicate pudeur des photographes et à la détermination passionnée des habitants.

Cette exposition photographique s’inscrit dans le cadre d’un projet original de mobilisation citoyenne pour la sauvegarde des bains historiques de la Ville de Tunis, lancé par l’association L’Mdina Wel Rabtine,  Actions Citoyennes en Médina.

Les recherches de terrain ont permis de recenser près de 50 hammams historiques, inventoriés dès le XIXème siècle en Médina et faubourgs. En avril 2014, seulement 26 hammams étaient en activité, 17 avaient disparu et 7 autres étaient fermés.

Les hammams en fonction sont menacés de disparition si aucune intervention réfléchie de sauvegarde n’est engagée.

La résidence photographique préalable à l’exposition a été menée en partenariat avec la Maison de l’Image, avec le soutien précieux de l’Institut français de Tunisie et de l’Ambassade de Suisse en Tunisie. Les courts-métrages ont été réalisés par les étudiants de l’Ecole Nationale d’Architecture et d’Urbanisme de Tunis.

28th International Congress of Papyrology‏

28th INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF PAPYROLOGY 1–6 August 2016 Barcelona, Spain Dear Colleagues,

This is the Second Circular of the 28th International Congress of Papyrology, to be held at the University Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, between 1 and 6 August 2016.

In the first place, the organizing committee would like to thank the enthusiasm with which the papyrological community has welcomed the preparation of this edition of the Congress in Barcelona.
This second circular is intended to provide information of special interest to the participants in the

Congress.

Accommodation
There are several hotels representing a selection of standards in the neighbourhood of the Congress venue. The organizers have negotiated special rates for Congress participants in some of them, but please note that these are subject to availability at the time the request is made. Information, links and registration forms are available on the Congress website. Participants are encouraged to book early in order to ensure the accommodation of their choice.

Sessions
As announced in the first circular, five days of sessions will be scheduled, leaving Wednesday afternoon free.
The sixth day will be reserved for the General Assembly of the AIP and devoted to obituaries and a general discussion of current problems in our discipline.

Papers will be presented in one of the following languages: English, French, German, and Italian and will be restricted to only one paper per person, including shared communications.
We encourage the use of posters for work-in-progress presentations. There will be two plenary sessions, at the opening and the closure of the Congress, and five parallel sessions with 20 minutes papers, followed by a 10 minute discussion.

The number and subject matter of panels are yet to be determined according to the proposals admitted.
We remind participants that the deadline for abstract submission is 28 February and that it should be done online from our webpage.

We are very pleased to announce that the president of the AIP, Andrea Jördens, has accepted to address the papyrological community in the inaugural plenary session.

The closing plenary session will take the form of a round table in which several participants will reflect on the boundaries of our discipline from different perspectives, and where participation from the public will be welcome.

Poster presentations Participants will also have the opportunity to present posters. Posters may be autonomous contributions or complement a paper, and may be presented by individual researchers or research teams.

Dimensions must be: height max. 2 m x width max. 1 m.

They will be displayed in the common areas close to the conference rooms for the duration of the Congress.
Poster proposals should be submitted to the organization of the Congress in the same way as abstracts, and, once they are accepted, posters should be delivered not later 1 August 2016, when they may be handed in at the administration desk of the Congress.

Book exhibitors
It is now possible to register as a book exhibitor for the five full days of the Congress (1–5 August). Registration will ensure a stand and a pass for participation in all the activities of the Congress; more information is available at the Congress website. To register as a book exhibitor you may use the eventum page of the 28th International Congress of Papyrology, from which you will be able to register for the Congress and to pay for the corresponding fee. Social events The city of Barcelona and the surrounding areas have numerous interesting places to visit, and the cultural offer is extremely rich. In addition to this, the Organizing Committee is preparing several social activities for the days of the Congress, of some of which we can advance the following information: Monday 1 August a reception will take place at the University Pompeu Fabra, where the University academic authorities will welcome the participants.

A papyrus exhibition will take place at the Archivo de la Corona de Aragón with documents and other objects from the two papyrus collections of Barcelona, the Abadia de Montserrat and the Palau-Ribes collections. The exhibition will open 17 March and a guided tour will be offered to the participants during the week of the Congress. As is traditional, a dinner and a farewell party will be offered Friday 5 August at the closing of the Congress. Further details of these and other activities will be provided in subsequent circulars and in our website.
