Disaster Capitalism: Practices and theories of resistance and reinvention
The exhibition Debaixo do Vulcão [Under the Volcano) by Hugo Canoilas, currently underway at Museu Nacional de Arte Contemporêna – Museu do Chiado, serves as a context for this roundtable discussion. The discussion will centre on contemporary theoretical, artistic and curatorial practices that question the institutional and canonical models of art, and how these may contribute to the construction of participatory alternatives to the current globalising and speculative models in the system of production and experience of artist events.

FILM PROGRAMME
For the duration of the conference, a selection of cinematographic works relevant to reflection on the imagery of the museum will be screened. Curated by Susana Mouzinho (Artist, PhD candidate in Artistic Studies — Arts and Mediation at FCSH, Uiversidade NOVA de Lisboa, FCT-Portugal Research Fellow)
The museum space, its history, its encounters with different curatorial and artistic perspectives are present in this programme proposal of films which in myriad ways engage the museum as a space and as a concept – as an institution, conservation and archive politics, the histories it hides or shares. These are essayistic, experimental and research films in different measures, artists and filmmakers explore in the following proposals, languages and forms of cinematographic creation which reflect upon the possibilities of the cinematic and speculative translation of that place, the works it shelters, its architecture, its protocols, its performances, its colonial and historical contexts. Thus, the films in this program summon the concept of the museum from multifarious perspectives, with artists and filmmakers appropriating different conceptions which allow for a critical and imaginative relation between cinema and the museum.
