ABOUT ARCHIVO
ARCHIVO is a non-profit, academic-oriented organization devoted to critically exploring photography and visual culture through collaborative initiatives spanning research, artistic practice, editorial and curatorial undertakings. Perceiving history as a resource for alternative narratives, ARCHIVO delves into a comprehensive understanding of lens-based media and photographic practice, recognising their profound impact on knowledge production. Established in 2012, ARCHIVO develops under the auspices of the International Association for Photography and Visual Culture (IAPVC), and operates through four main projects: Archivo Platform; Archivo Papers; Reframing the Archive; and Archivo Press.
ARCHIVO NETWORK A digital hub fostering theoretical and critical interventions that bridge scholarship with artistic practice. This section encompasses an Interdisciplinary Network and a Visual LAB, providing researchers and artists with an enriching environment to share, discuss, and develop work within an international community of peers. It also serves as a platform for publishing and presenting ongoing research to a global audience through a Webinar Series, the Photofile Blog, and Open Sessions freely accessible to visitors. Moreover, serving as an educational resource, the platform hosts a Media Archive where members and visitors can access recordings of past events. www.archivoplatform.com
