Nieustanny ruch historii w ruchu: „East Side Story” Anne Peschken i Marka Pisarsky’ego jako anachroniczne ucieleśnianie doświadczenia migracji i zadomawiania na tzw. Ziemiach Odzyskanych
Incessant Motion of History: “East Side Story” by Anne Peschken and Mark Pisarsky as an Anachronic Embodiment of the Experience of Migration and Settlement in the so-called Recovered Territories

Summary/Abstract: This text is an analysis of a series of pinhole photographs, by Anne Peschken and Mark Pisarsky (Urban Art), entitled East Side Story. A photo research on migration and arrival stories, 2019 on-going. The theme of the series concerns the settlement of Poles in the so-called Recovered Territories after the end of the Second World War. The main thesis is that these photographs are a model example of images which, while addressing the theme of migration in the representational layer, also activate the processual and migratory nature of visual forms themselves. In order to substantiate this thesis, the East Side Story project is examined in the following contexts: critical border (art) studies; H. Belting’s anthropology of the image; memory studies; re-enactment; the blurriness of images made with a pinhole camera; the medium as an infrastructure of mobility; A. Berleant’s re-thinking aesthetics and the notion of aesthetic embodiment; and anachronism according to G. Didi-Huberman and J. Rancière.
