An electronic modern art display where the letters scrolled up the posts continuously, in the Guggenheim museum of modern art in Bilbao, #Spain. This is usually not my kind of thing, but the display was somewhat mesmerizing, I must admit. For #WackyWednesdayArt.

Lewis Ryder @lewisryder.bsky.social (University of Lincoln) on 'The History and Legacy of British Colonial Looting'

#Historiography #Review #Looting #Museums #Objects 18thc 19thc 🏛️🗃️

👉Read open access here: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

This historiographical review surveys the scholarship on British colonial spoils of war, outlining and critically analysing the main arguments and approaches as well as the new directions taken by recent authors. Moreover, it seizes the opportunity to take stock of what we know to address one of the field’s main issues – its disjointed nature. Scholars have mostly focused on a particular object, collection, or war, and so our understanding has developed piecemeal. By producing something resembling a bird’s eye view of British colonial spoils in the long nineteenth century, this review outlines some broader patterns, change over time and across geographies, and identifies areas in need of further study. It does so by structuring the discussion around three key topics/approaches: practices, customs, and law; the social and cultural lives of loot; and the decolonial critique of museums.

Younger visitors don’t need gimmicks. They need choice.

Some want highlights, others depth, audio, another language or an accessible format.

Good digital interpretation lets people engage in the way that works for them.

Peggy Levitt, author of Move Over, Mona Lisa, wants to teach museum-goers how to be critical engagers: "What's in the center of the room at eye level with lots of light on it, and what's in the back?”

📣Out now on #firstview!

James Poskett @uni-of-warwick.bsky.social and Lynette Russell @lynetterussell.bsky.social @monashuniversity.bsky.social on 'Contesting Collecting: Indigenous Material Cultures'

#Materiality #History #Museums #Roundtable

👉Read open access: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

This dialogue explores how we understand and contest the collecting of Indigenous material cultures. Poskett, using several case studies explores how Indigenous and non-Indigenous perspectives can complicate fixed notions of materiality. Russell, drawing on her own heritage and interdisciplinary research, emphasizes cross-contextualization and the agency of Indigenous communities in shaping how cultural materials are interpreted. Together, they ask how Indigenous and non-Indigenous perspectives can reshape the history of science and museums.

Really excited to share this paper co-authored with Mingyuan Jiang for #PublicHumanities, a new open-access journal from @universitypress.cambridge.org that seeks to "ask big questions and pursue bold answers"

Our "big question": Why is antiquity so highly valued in Chinese #museums?
