Conference

Sweet Confusion is a conference project that intends to investigate the artistic and historical processes of two countries that remain in the ‘peripheries’. The conference will explore Armenian and Turkish cinematography of the 60s; by doing so, it is attempting to reread the social-political and cultural paradigms of two geopolitically estranged situations, which throughout 1960s were in the process of self-defining and self-positioning by determining and shaping the ‘Other’ through a complex correlation of cultural and political systems.
