Talk by Nathaniel Brunt: The Country Without a Post Office / Archiving Photographic Histories of Armed Conflict | 30 June 2022 | 15:00-17:00 | The Hague [RSVP]

For nearly a decade, Nathaniel Brunt, has examined the history, sociocultural impact, and human cost of the insurgency in India’s Kashmir Valley. During this presentation Brunt will show the organic development of his work in the field and the unique way his project blends archival practice, documentary photography, and cultural historical research. The lecture will draw specific attention to his work #shaheed (2014-2017) which explores the recent re-emergence and evolution of the insurgency in the region, the lives of the young men fighting in it, and the broader changing nature of the photographic representation of war in the early 21st century.
