«Participatory Exhibitions and New Forms of (Academic) Knowledge Production» by INGE DANIELS Associate Professor of Social Anthropology. Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology, University of Oxford

The talk challenges the common view that exhibitions are primary research outcomes to disseminate findings with by demonstrating their untapped potential as methodological tools to produce new forms of democratic, participatory knowledge that starts long before, and that may continue after the end of a show. The lecture explores this innovative model of exhibitions by drawing on the exhibition ‘At Home in Japan’, that I. Daniels curated at the Geffrye Museum in London in 2011, as well as the project “Disobedient Buildings” that Daniels designed around a major exhibition about aging housing, welfare and wellbeing in the UK, Romania and Norway (www.disobedientbuildings.com).

Inge Daniels is an Associate Professor in Social Anthropology at the University of Oxford. Her research interests include housing, atmosphere and the built environment. She has conducted several long-term ethnographies inside homes in Japan culminating in her 2010 monograph ‘The Japanese House’. I. Daniels also has an ongoing interest in curation and exhibitions. She has curated an exhibition at the British Museum (2001) and her recent book What are exhibitions for? (2019) is based on an ethnography of visitors to her 2012 exhibition at the Geffrye Museum in London.

Antiparochi and (its) architects’ (https://www.facebook.com/antiparochi....​ / https://antiparochi.tumblr.com​ / [email protected]) is a three-year collaborative research project conducted at the School of Architecture, National Technical University of Athens, Greece (Dec.2018-Dec.2021), and funded by the Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation (HFRI) and the General Secretariat for Research and Technology (GSRT), under grant agreement no.1693.

Antiparochi – A Short Introduction (Greece, 20’, 2021) was shot between April 2019 and February 2020 as part of the ‘Antiparochi and its Architects’ research project by Stavros Alifragkis & Konstantina Kalfa.

The project deals with the history of ‘antiparochi’, the post-war uniquely Greek phenomenon (a land-for-flats ‘quid pro quo’ arrangement), which enabled wide access to homeownership in Greece. It unpacks antiparochi’s social history concentrating on the study of the metropolitan area of greater Athens, Greece’s capital city, and a period that spans from 1929 (when law 3741 on ‘horizontal ownership’ was introduced), to 1974, the end of the Military Junta. In a broader perspective, the research intends to offer valuable insights into wide-ranging historical issues related not only to the Greek urban environment but also to the short-lived epoch of economic and social Reconstruction, the development of the Greek Economy, politics of social integration, the construction of social identities and of the middle class in Greece. The short documentary presents a small selection of the interviews that have been conducted within the research program. It is a short and selective story of antiparochi that arises on the one hand through the personal and subjective views, narratives and memories of the ‘protagonists’ of the phenomenon and on the other hand through the views of antiparochi’s scholars, focusing on the case of Athens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvjFiopD9wA
