ONEROOM is our physical dimension, located in Piazza dei Satiri 55 in Rome, IT
At the same time a bookstore and its detournement, sometimes a gallery and mostly an open studio.
Always open, by chance or by appointment.
camera publica is the digital and conceptual container of our activities, thoughts and dreams.
A platform for transdisciplinary research projects, using the photobook medium as main tool of investigation of the photography’s still unexpressed social potentialities.
De ́tournement –a diversion, a detour, a seduction, a plagiarism, an appropriation, even perhaps a hijacking – is the integration of present or past artistic productions into a construction that surpasses them. [...] Can it be a method of critique, in and against the spectacle that reveals the wearing out and loss of importance of the raw material of spectacle itself?
The key to de ́tournement is not to appropriate the image, but to appropriate the power of appropriation itself.
De ́tournement as a critical practice is the opposite of quotation, of an authority invariably tainted if only because it has become quotable, because it is now a fragment torn away from its conditions of
production, from its own movement [...]
De ́tournement need not be piracy. It is a method of playful cultural education, the first step towards a cultural commons.

Webinar gratuito di 30 minuti in italiano, il secondo martedì del mese alle ore 18
max. 50 partecipanti
We firmly believe in the educational and pedagogical role of museums, archives and cultural institutions, and we act like them: much more than establishing canons, shaping the tools to build the fundamental bricks of a functional society, engaging in dialogue and discussions.
We also firmly believe that real advancement in knowledge can be achieved only through a transdisciplinary practice, crossing the borders of our respective niches and gaining awareness that being out of our visual scope doesn’t mean to don’t exists.
And we love to share our insights in different forms, online and offline, through talks, lectures, and individual or group courses.
A brief introduction to the photographic for hard scientists and not creative mindsets.
A 1 hr. online lecture
max. 25 participants [ 25€ ]
Every month on the Last Thursday at 18:00 (GMT+02:00) Rome
