Join us on 8 August at 2 pm for an afternoon of moving #image, conversation, and reflection at @galleriimage 📸

We are pleased to present a screening of works by Elisabeth Brun @elisabrun77, followed by a conversation with independent curator and lecturer Vanina Saracino @vanina.saracino 

How do media technology shape the way we experience and understand place?

In Brun’s films, the camera becomes more than a recording device — it is a way of thinking with terrains, technologies, and environments. Through what she describes as moving image #topography, her works explore how perception is mediated and how we navigate worlds shaped by both human and technological forces.

The programme includes screenings of Big Tech Blues (2025) and 3xShapes of Home (2020), alongside excerpts from Brun’s current research exploring mountains as a prism for understanding the relationship between human and geological time.

Following the screenings, Brun and Saracino will discuss the camera as a tool for spatial knowledge, perception, and world-building, before opening the floor for questions.

Programme📄 

14:00–14:15 — Welcome and introduction

14:15–14:45 — Screening:

• 3xShapes of Home (7 min, 2020)
• Big Tech Blues (20 min, 2025)
• Excerpts from a work in progress (5 min)

14:45–15:15 — Conversation with Elisabeth Brun and Vanina Saracino

Talking About Photobooks 📒

On 26 October 2024 we will launch our new publication “Talking About Photobooks”!

The book draws on the experiences and learnings of @photobookweek , a small festival dedicated for the last ten years to the photographic book as a medium of artistic production.

The contributions are based on artist talks, panels, keynote speeches and presentations in the framework of the festival, edited and revisited to reflect the main aspects of the photobook. The brand-new book with contributions by some of the leading experts in the field was published by Photobook Week Aarhus in collaboration with Fw:Books @fw.books (Amsterdam).

It was edited by Moritz Neumüller, together with Beate Cegielska, Jesper Rasmussen, and Anne Elisabeth Toft, with a superb design by Hans Gremmen @hans.gremmen and Kuan-Ting Chen.

The plan for the event: 

1 pm - Galleri Image will open its doors, where it will be possible to purchase the book.

2 pm - The talk programme will start (location: above the gallery in Aarhus Art Academy’s lecture hall). 

The talk programme:

🔸 Welcome with Beate Cegielska @beatecegielska, Director of Galleri Image

🔸 Moritz Neumüller, chief curator and editor of Talking About Photobooks

🔸 K.Chen @k.chen._, graphic designer behind Talking About Photobooks

🔸‘Building the Museum from the Library’ with Angel Luis Gonzalez @bohoe, Director of @photoireland, designer, curator, and artist

🔸 ‘To See & Be Seen: Queer Photobooks’ with Debora Moritz @deboramoritz, curator at the Victoria & Albert Museum @vamuseum, London about Queer photobooks 

“Talking about Photobooks“ is published with the support of @nycarlsbergfondet and @dreyersfond. 

The special photobook event in 2024 is made possible through support from @augustinusfonden.

The exhibition 455 Days by Mohamed Mahdy @mohamedmahdyph, curated by Farida Youssef, is still open for visitors at Galleri Image! 👁

From Farida Youssef’s exhibition essay:

“Mahdy’s efforts to remember become the focus of 455 Days. The exhibition is an acknowledgement of remembrance as a process shaped by how we articulate the past to ourselves. In the years since his military service, Mahdy revisited the memories from this period several times and in several forms. Each attempt is a search which conjugates remembering to reconstructing. What if all the iterations of his memories were brought together? One of the earliest images in the exhibition shows an incomplete portrait of Mahdy whose retrospection has been turned into a puzzle.”

Through #photography, #archives, and personal reflection, 455 Days explores the fragile and evolving nature of #memory, inviting viewers to consider how the past is continually reconstructed in the present.

455 Days by Mohamed Mahdy @mohamedmahdyph is now on display at Galleri Image - don’t miss it!

This #exhibition explores the space between remembering and reimagining, where archival #images, repetition, and AI-generated interpretations begin to overlap. Through this process, memory reveals itself not as a fixed record of the past, but as something constantly shifting, evolving, and being recreated.

Come and experience the exhibition 455 Days 👁

In 455 Days, Mohamed Mahdy revisits his memories as a military conscript in Egypt, where mandatory service kept him away from family and everyday life for 455 days. During his service, he secretly photographed moments of isolation and routine, creating images that resemble a personal diary.

The exhibition brings together these photographs, letters, and AI-generated images of memories he could not capture. Through these fragments, 455 Days explores memory as something constantly reconstructed through repetition, imagination, and the act of remembering itself.

📆 8 May - 28 June, 2026
📍 Vestergade 29, Aarhus

Feeling grateful for everyone who made this moment possible. Here in Denmark with my wonderful wife, the incredible friend & curator Farida Youssef, Asta Nyyssonen and the brilliant Conrad, having the best time installing my solo exhibition 455 Days at Galleri Image.

Four years of work have gone into this project, and tomorrow it officially opens at 4 PM for six weeks. Can’t wait.

It wouldn’t be possible without @beatecegielska thank you 🌹

• Mohamed Mahdy @mohamedmahdyph (artist)
• Jacob Lund @jacoblundimagespace (Professor, Aarhus University) 
• Magdalena Regina Tyzlik-Carver (Associate Professor, Aarhus University)
• Farida Youssef (the curator)

📆 12 May, 4 pm
📍 Vestergade 29, Aarhus

Galleri Image presents the exhibition 455 Days by Mohamed Mahdy @mohamedmahdyph, curated by Farida Youssef. The exhibition opens on Friday, 8 May 📸🥂

In 455 Days, Mohamed Mahdy searches for his memories as a military conscript.

In Egypt, all abled men are required to serve in the army for a certain period of time. Mahdy began his service in 2020, lasting 455 days. For many conscripts, this marks the beginning of a new life — away from family, friends, and the lives they used to lead. Like his fellow conscripts, he was allowed only periodic days of vacation and sporadic short phone calls home.

📅 Friday, 8 May 2026, 4–6 p.m.
📍 Vestergade 29, Aarhus

Mark your calendar with the following events:

〰️ GUIDED EXHIBITION TOUR
📅 Saturday 9 May at 2 p.m., Galleri Image

📅 Tuesday 12 May at 4 p.m., Galleri Image
