“Curating a Colonial-Critical Classicism,” an event with Kendall Lovely (UC Santa Barbara), this Thursday, March 28, 4 to 5 pm ET in Phelps 401 and via Zoom.
Kendall Lovely is a PhD Candidate in history at the University of California Santa Barbara and an enrolled member of the Navajo Nation. She holds a double-major B.A. in Comparative Literature and Anthropology and an M.A. in Museum Studies from the University of New Mexico, as well as an M.A. in Comparative Humanities from Brandeis University. Her dissertation research examines intersecting ideas on race, reproduction, antiquity, and heritage within narratives on Native Americans in museum anthropology. This work pays attention to the formation of New Mexico museums as dispossessing of Native material culture and also serves as a basis for her emerging curatorial praxis.
If you plan to attend in person or via Zoom, please register in advance. We will circulate a Zoom link. If you have any questions, please email catherine.saterson@yale.edu and kirsten.traudt@yale.edu.
