  • Linked Data in Art History Scholar

    • Apr 2024 - Present

    As a step towards forming a community of practice around Linked Data (LD) for art and architectural history and cultural heritage research, the Linked Data in Art History Interest Group seeks to to consider LD from the researcher’s perspective or for scholars to share with each other the challenges and opportunities of research in an environment of LD. How specifically do (or could) scholars use linked data or linked data-powered research and discovery tools to conduct research and write histories of art, architecture, and other forms of cultural heritage? What role could scholars of art and architectural history play in creating and maintaining an ecosystem of LD? Moreover, how can LD–in both the practices associated with it and the research it produces–be more ethical and inclusive?

  • Arts and (re)Creation from Africas to the World Reading Group

    • Aug 2023 - Present

    This reading group seeks to answer the question “what is African arts” beyond the geographic boundaries imposed on it. From Africas to the Worlds, this reading group will attempt to survey the representations of African arts by Africans from Africa and its diasporas, by Western scholars and artists from slavery to postcolonialism in a bid to find answers to possible delimitations of what African arts is. If it is arts from Africa, then what is Africa? If it is, Arts of African inspiration, what influence does African worldviews have on its arts? What is that worldview all about from the artist to the work of arts as well as from the work of arts to the public? What role does the African diaspora play in shaping what African arts is? Can we think of African arts as a practice? A theory?A specific/shared/global/cosmopolitan cultural heritage? What role does the sociocultural context of the artist play in thinking about his style? What can oral memory/literature/history, audiovisual media and literature tell us about what African arts is?This reading group will meet once a month and will entail both the reading and the discussion of a proposed monthly reading list.Link: https://mt2200.mycpanel.princeton.edu/arts-and-recreation/

  • Fellow at Académie des Traces

    • Jan 2024 - Mar 2024
    • Berlin, Germany

    The Academy of Traces, known as "Académie des Traces," offers a comprehensive training course designed for young researchers, museum professionals, and independent curators. This program aims to deepen their understanding of the significant societal challenges posed by colonial collections held by Western museums. These collections are intricately tied to a multitude of sensitive and often painful memories. The Académie des Traces addresses various aspects of museum work related to colonial collections, including provenance research, restitution, exhibition, artistic creation, mediation, and the politics of collection and archive genesis. The goal is not merely to comprehend the inner workings of museums but also to critically examine and challenge the intricate, multi-dimensional approaches employed in managing colonial collections. Participants are encouraged to utilize the acquired knowledge to pioneer innovative methods, contributing to the transformation of these collections and shaping the practices of the future. The Academy will engage international experts across four main themes—Restore/Repatriate, Represent/Exhibit, Acquire/Appropriate, and Imagine/Perform—facilitating a pluralistic perspective through ongoing dialogue between participants from both European and African continents. Through this collaborative effort, the Académie des Traces aims to foster positive change and construct new practices in the handling of colonial legacies.
