Summary note
Microhistories' studies the form of the video essay, which can be said to treat its subject matter in a critical and investigative way while at the same time reflecting its processes and its considerations. A characteristic of the video essay is that it takes up the details of a phenomenon in order to show how these details form part of a greater context. It shares this preoccupation with the small, marginalized stories with an approach within the field of history, so-called microhistory. Here one studies habits and routines rather than deliberate actions, underlying mentalities rather than explicit views. In microhistory the exception is more interesting than the rule, including the everyday, the overlooked details? all this that can prove to be as important as the "grand" recognized history. This project brings together prominent practices and theoreticians within three fields? art, artistic research and microhistory? in order to build shared knowledge.
