The University of Murcia exhibits a photographic collection of the Lusuriér family (16/09/2019)

The University of Murcia opens this Wednesday, September 18, the exhibition 'The photographic collection of the Lusuriér family.

A project to recover the documentary heritage ', which will take place in the small room of the UMU Museum (C / Cartagena s / n, 30002, Murcia), at 8.30 pm

The exhibition offers the visitor a domestic photographic archive that gathers an important part of the life of the Lusuriér, a family composed of a marriage and two children, who are the priority protagonists of many of the compositions.

The exhibition has been organized by the UMU Photographic Research Laboratory (LifUM) and has been attended by students of the degree in Art History, the Master in Research and Management of Historical, Artistic and Cultural Heritage, and the program of PhD in History, Geography and Art History: Society, Territory and Heritage.

The LifUM is a multifunctional space that focuses part of its activities in the field of teaching and research around photography.

In September 2018, the laboratory proposed a comprehensive project for the recovery, analysis, conservation and dissemination of a family photographic fund between 1888 and 1904. The set provides a total of 532 negatives around the concept of the domestic album, which addresses three fundamental themes : the family portrait, the landscape and the documentary report of private objects or elements.

"Projects thus try to demonstrate the indispensable need for the safeguarding of photographic archives away from the fine arts, and even from the official history, of which there are no references or sources that support their content or value; because we believe they are essential for the construction of our own history ", they affirm from the LifUM.

Thus, this proposal aims to insist on the need for recovery, analysis and conservation of these materials, and on the value of them as a direct source of anthropological, historical and, sometimes, plastic characters.

The sample can be visited until October 18 from Monday to Friday, from 11 am to 2 pm and from 6 pm to 8:30 pm.
