Within the framework of the artistic research project '(in)site, site-specific photography revised, applied to the archaeological site Sagalassos' an international conference is organised, aiming to explore the relationship between photography and history. How do photographers visualize heritage or, broader, history? What is the importance of place, particularly the place that remains after events took place. A related topic, central in the theory of photography and photography itself, is time. This conference also focuses on how photographers depict the past, when time has become 'past time'. The theme Imaging History, photography after the fact offers an opportunity to explore, both on a theoretic and artistic level, how history can be captured.
