Curriculum Vitae

Ana Catarina Pinho

Ana Catarina Pinho is a FCT research fellow at the European Centre for Documentary Research (eCDR), within the University of South Wales, in the UK. In her doctoral research she explores contemporary artistic appropriation of archival imagery and its relationship with the narratives and collective memory of historical events, confronting it with the re-signification of visual material as a point of departure for the construction of new discourses and knowledge production. She is a member of the research centres: European Centre for Documentary Research, University of South Wales; Global Art Archive, University of Barcelona; and Contemporary Art Studies, IHA-FCSH NOVA University of Lisboa. She has recently edited the book “Reframing the Archive” (2021) and curated the exhibition “The Empire of Fiction” (MEIAC, 2021-22). Pinho is the founder director of ARCHIVO – Photography and Visual Culture Research Platform and the chief editor of Archivo Papers Journal, an open access journal. In addition to her academic work, Pinho is a visual artist working across photography, moving image and installation. Her work combines documentary and fictional strategies, often examining the way reality is perceived in regard to its representation and meaning construction. She has been exhibited and published internationally and is currently an invited artist of the research project “Peace Videography”, developed at TAPRI - Tampere University of Finland, and funded by Kone Foundation.
