Contemporary Art: A pathway towards Inclusive Museology
25 june 2024
The conference Contemporary Art: A pathway towards Inclusive Museology (C.A.R.I.M) is embedded in the research project with the same title initiated in 2023, situated in an interdisciplinary perspective at the cross-point of theory and history of arts and practice, visual culture, anthropology and museology (www.carimproject.com).
The project aims to crystallize strategies that contemporary art (and especially historic and recent conceptual art) can bring into the field of museology, and which can open up de-hegemonic, inclusive and creative methodologies to deal with museologic history, with the institution museum, with display of material culture.
This conference presents the work of researchers and collaborators involved in CARIM, as well as artists who’s work has inspired and guided the ongoing researches. The conference is focused on the presentation of case-studies of participatory, interactive, critical and inclusive artistic and creative practices that innovated and renovated museology since the beginning of the 20th century, with a focus on recent practices. The research project aims to demonstrate the applicability and the efficiency of such artistic strategies for the discipline of museology and to draw methodologies that can be invested for the reconsideration of archives and collections and for the development of de-colonial and anti-hegemonic museologic practices.
The project is funded by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT 2022.04615.PTDC ) and is embedded at the Interdisciplinary Research Centre for Education and Development (Ceied), Lusofona University, Lisbon, Portugal.
