​Dear all, I am pleased to announce a call for papers for "Re-Imagining the Human", a conference organised by the Horniman Museum and ICME (International Committee for Museums and Collections of Ethnography). Keynote speaker Dr. Sandra Dudley. Please share with your networks and visit the conference website for more details.
Call for papers: Re-Imagining the Human: Exploring Best Practice in Object-led work with Ethnographic Collections.
Dates: 28-29 November 2018
Venue: Horniman Museum and Gardens, London, UK.
Conference Website: https://www.horniman.ac.uk/visit/events/reimagining-the-human-a-two-day-conference-in-collaboration-with-icme
ICME (International Committee for Museums and Collections of Ethnography) and the Horniman Museum and Gardens invite scholars and practitioners to explore innovative practices and theories in object-led work with ethnographic collections. Object-led practice can draw strongly on our ability to employ the senses to re-imagine our place in the world. In-depth engagement with ethnographic objects in particular can promote social interactions and critical reflections on the logics of power and prejudice upon which collections are constituted. ​
Keynote speaker Dr. Sandra Dudley will open the conference. Her research as a social and material anthropologist transects social anthropology, museum studies, and material culture studies.
Many thanks,
dom
