Last session of this day of #AASLH2019: "Objects are Complicated Too." Does a waning of the Colonial Revival explain the widening disconnect between museum objects and contemporary values? This session explores ways we have traditionally valued objects for the privileged stories they tell and how we can mobilize those same objects to convey a complete, inclusive past.
Session will delve into Active Collections Manifesto to talk about objects. #AASLH2019 #s70
Laura Keim: Goal of session to move beyond biased or racialized notions of objects. One addition to Charles Montgomery 14 points of connoisseurship is question of who moved and cared for object. #AASLH2019 #s70
