This paper explores how community engagement practitioners understand their knowledge production work in facilitating and choreographing dialogical spaces (Freire, 2005) within which “organic intellectuals” (Gramsci, 1971) and “alternative” knowledge emerge. Using a qualitative, phenomenological research strategy, data were generated through semi-structured interviews with community engagement practitioners in Scotland. Practitioners emphasize the importance of equity in the relationship with project participants in knowledge production. Practitioners' narratives reveal how those relationships are realized and how these inform their own and the museum institutions' practice. We acknowledge that community-based project participants' expertise is prioritized by practitioners as critical to effective community engagement. We argue for a nuanced conceptualization—and appreciation—of the complexities inherent in museum community engagement practice, which is often absent in museum studies work. This conceptualization is embedded in practitioners' subjective experiences and reflections, as well as structural contexts, which simultaneously enable and constrain meaningful community engagement work.

本文探讨了社区参与实践者如何理解他们在促进和编排对话空间(Freire, 2005)中的知识生产工作,在对话空间中出现了 "有机知识分子"(Gramsci, 1971)和 "另类 "知识。采用定性、现象学的研究策略,通过对苏格兰社区参与实践者进行半结构化访谈获得数据。实践者强调了在知识生产中与项目参与者建立公平关系的重要性。实践者的叙述揭示了这些关系是如何实现的,以及这些关系如何影响他们自己和博物馆机构的实践。我们承认,社区项目参与者的专业知识被实践者视为有效社区参与的关键。我们主张对博物馆社区参与实践中固有的复杂性进行细致入微的概念化--以及对其的理解,而这在博物馆研究工作中往往是缺失的。这种概念化蕴含在实践者的主观经验和反思以及结构性背景中,它们同时促进和制约着有意义的社区参与工作。

Fourfolded objects, or toward a philosophy of object‐oriented curation 四面八方的对象,或面向对象的策展哲学

This paper attempts to contextualize a philosophy of curation that is object‐oriented or toward a “return to the object.” In the museum, three interrelated philosophical problems pervade curation practices that prevent access to the object as it is. Here, the subject‐object relations or idealism‐realism issues are reconsidered as a specific niche of the philosophy of curation. To address these issues, this paper claims that Jean‐Paul Martinon and Graham Harman's philosophical return to the Heideggerian fourfold (das Geviert) can introduce creative pathways for the curated object that is riddled with excess and tensions. Later, with some caveats, the paper addresses the issues and suggests a possible avenue for further research.
本文试图阐述一种以对象为导向或 "回归对象 "的策展哲学。在博物馆中,有三个相互关联的哲学问题充斥着策展实践,它们阻碍了人们接触对象的本来面目。在此,主客体关系或唯心主义-现实主义问题被重新视为策展哲学的一个特殊领域。为了解决这些问题,本文主张让-保罗-马蒂农和格雷厄姆-哈曼从哲学角度回归海德格尔的四重境界(das Geviert),为充满过度和紧张的策展对象引入创造性的途径。随后,在提出一些注意事项后,本文探讨了相关问题,并提出了进一步研究的可能途径。

This article uses autoethnography to explore objects from Zambia, Hong Kong, and Ireland, dated between 1848 and the 1990s. It explores subjective conceptualizations of the “colonial object,” and seeks to disrupt imperialist narratives as well as to decenter the white family from which its examples come. The paper discusses the objects as potential sites for developing transcultural collaboration, and examines their relevance to decolonization in the Anthropocene.

本文采用自我民族志的方法,探讨了来自赞比亚、香港和爱尔兰的物品,时间跨度为 1848 年至 20 世纪 90 年代。文章探讨了 "殖民物品 "的主观概念,并试图打破帝国主义的叙事方式,以及去中心化其实例所来自的白人家庭。论文讨论了这些物品作为发展跨文化合作的潜在场所,并探讨了它们与人类世非殖民化的相关性。

Critical consciousness, heritage, and the shape of museum practice 批判意识、遗产和博物馆实践的形态

As I approach my ninth and final year as the Editor of Curator: The Museum Journal, I reflect on the remarkable journey of the past decade. We've experienced extraordinary growth in readership and a shift in our editorial board to better represent our international readership. Initiatives like a multilingual translations program and updated ethics policies, especially recognizing community members involved in participatory action research as authors, are now part of our core values. In 2023, we also concluded a 2-year study with Drs. Rafie Cecelia and Theano Moussouri from University College London that now provides guidance to authors on how to write detailed figure descriptions that enhance accessibility to screen readers for our online content.

Throughout my tenure, we've seen consistent growth in contributions that rigorously assess museum practice and theory through larger scale comparative studies. While my concern about the dominance of single case studies in our archive, we are starting to witness a noteworthy trend—the increasing involvement of museum professionals as guest editors for special issues, and researchers taking on field wide questions with representative data. We see more of these trends reflected in the special issues published in the last few years, whether on materials like ivory or phenomena like sound. These scholarly efforts provide critical insights that challenge the museum movement to reconsider the societal service it provides. The current issue builds on this practice by presenting one of the critical concerns of our current era: How museums can use their power to rectify the field's collusion in suppressing peoples and culture.

This period in the museum industry signifies a crucial moment in redefining practices. The MoHoA movement challenges equity and dominance hierarchies, steering away from Eurocentric orthodoxy. This shift suggests the current museum definition will require an update soon. Situated under the theme of the Anthropocene, this work acknowledges the existential crises museums face related to material culture and human expansion.

Guest editors Dr. Edward Denison and Editorial Board Member Dr. Shahid Vawda led this issue on behalf of a global network working to decolonize modern history in the museum sector. Their commitment represents a pivotal moment in the museum movement, emphasizing critical thinking as a foundation for challenging conventions.

We first published the draft version of The Cape Town Document in July 2022. In this issue, we publish the most recent consensus version of The Cape Town Document on Modern Heritage as an open access public document. It is a watershed manifesto that calls on museum and heritage professionals to reshape what we know as cultural memory, advocating for a shift in positionality and acknowledging pluralities and intersectional issues. This document, as a community product, also exemplifies the best of what can be achieved with open

在我担任《策展人》编辑的第九个年头,也是最后一个年头即将到来之际,我回顾了过去十年的非凡历程:在我担任《博物馆馆长:博物馆杂志》编辑的第九个年头即将结束之际,我回顾了过去十年的非凡历程。我们经历了读者数量的非凡增长和编辑委员会的转变,以更好地代表我们的国际读者群。多语种翻译计划和更新的伦理政策等举措,特别是承认参与行动研究的社区成员为作者,现已成为我们核心价值的一部分。2023 年,我们还与伦敦大学学院的拉菲-塞西莉亚(Rafie Cecelia)博士和特亚诺-穆苏里(Theano Moussouri)博士合作完成了一项为期两年的研究,该研究现在可以指导作者如何撰写详细的图表说明,以提高屏幕阅读器对我们在线内容的可访问性。虽然我对我们的档案中单一案例研究占主导地位表示担忧,但我们也开始看到一个值得注意的趋势--越来越多的博物馆专业人士参与到特刊的客座编辑工作中来,而研究人员则利用具有代表性的数据来解决整个领域的问题。我们在过去几年出版的特刊中看到了更多这样的趋势,无论是象牙等材料还是声音等现象。这些学术努力提供了重要的见解,对博物馆运动提出了挑战,要求其重新考虑所提供的社会服务。本期杂志在此基础上提出了当今时代的一个关键问题:博物馆如何利用自身的力量来纠正该领域在压制民族和文化方面的合谋行为。博物馆行业的这一时期标志着重新定义实践的关键时刻。博物馆和艺术博物馆运动挑战了公平和主导等级制度,摆脱了以欧洲为中心的正统观念。这种转变表明,当前的博物馆定义很快就需要更新。特邀编辑爱德华-丹尼森(Edward Denison)博士和编辑委员会成员沙希德-瓦达(Shahid Vawda)博士代表一个致力于在博物馆领域实现现代历史非殖民化的全球网络领导了本期杂志。他们的承诺代表了博物馆运动的关键时刻,强调批判性思维是挑战传统的基础。我们于 2022 年 7 月首次发布了《开普敦文件》的草案版本。本期,我们将《开普敦现代遗产文件》的最新共识版本作为公开文件发布。这是一份具有分水岭意义的宣言,呼吁博物馆和遗产专业人员重塑我们所熟知的文化记忆,倡导转变立场,承认多元性和交叉性问题。这份文件作为社区产品,也体现了开放式同行评审所能达到的最佳效果。我们花了一些时间与出版商沟通,使其与期刊论文的接受方式保持一致,因为这份文件接受了 18 个月的公开同行评审。它没有 "第一作者",也没有作为版权持有者的机构。相反,它是一个没有等级和所有权要求的实践社区的作品。在出版这本最终成果时,我们威利的团队将这些知识产权和所有权问题作为我们在出版工作中回应公平原则时可以弯曲的东西。与丹尼森博士和瓦尔达博士合作出版这一期和上一期杂志,让我见证了批判性思维的最佳表现。他们孜孜不倦地纠正过去的错误,是我作为本刊编辑所做的许多工作中的亮点。我还认为,本期杂志为博物馆期刊界提供了一个路线图,以进一步支持下一代的赔偿工作。本期的许多作者提出了一种与历史和地球之间新的、更加务实的关系,强调了对那些被掠夺的文化和那些被西欧正统和个性的单一视角视为理解遗产的准则而埋没了名字的人们的亏欠。开普敦文件》呼吁博物馆专业人员超越过去的偏见,并呼吁全社会采取行动。它要求博物馆工作者成为文化治疗师,投入他们的时间、精力和学术技能来修补我们的记录碎片。在威利开始寻找我的继任者时,我鼓励大家找到一位精通新挑战、愿意为重写历史留出空间的人。这本创刊六十七年的杂志代表了国际上对博物馆未来潜力的热烈讨论。我相信 Wiley 会找到合适的人选来协助这些新的批评声音。

Introduction: MoHoA guest editorial 导言:MoHoA 特邀编辑
IF 1 4区 社会学 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2024-01-22 DOI: 10.1111/cura.12585
Edward Denison, Shahid Vawda

This special edition of Curator on Modern Heritage in the Anthropocene draws on the 2nd International MoHoA conference of the same title held from October 26 to 28, 2022, at The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London (UK), in partnership with the University of Liverpool's School of Architecture. As a global collaborative established in 2020, MoHoA is concerned with decentring the theory and practice of modern heritage and joins the wider global effort to decolonize institutional practices that engage with the research, collection, valorization, or transformation of material culture associated with our collective recent past—from museum curators and creative practitioners to academics, and the built environment professions. Founded on the fact that our precarious present reflects an inequitable past and a perilous future, MoHoA asserts that modern heritage—inextricably bound as it is to Western notions of progress, modernization, and modernity—conceptually, practically, and as artifact, uniquely and disproportionately privileges western, invariably white, experiences and values. Unlike other kinds or classifications of heritage, modern heritage also reflects the existential paradox central to MoHoA whereby the cultural legacies of our recent past are simultaneously of modernity and yet threatened by its consequences. Through its workshops, conferences, publications, and website, MoHoA provides a platform for sharing knowledge, methods, and approaches that challenge the modernist canon and support the construction of new epistemologies centered not on race, color, or ethnicity but on humankind and our self-inflicted precarious position on this planet. This epistemic and canonical reconfiguration has important implications for museums and heritage practice globally as the reconstitution of modern heritage and its associated modes of knowledge production and registers will direct the composition of collections, lists, and archives away from mythologizing hegemonic Western epistemic traditions, to reflect instead decentred planetary experiences, whether human or non-human. An important outcome of this collective and restitutive endeavor is the publication of The Cape Town Document on Modern Heritage, an equitable and decentering policy proposal presented to UNESCO and its advisory bodies in 2023.

本期 "人类世现代遗产策展人 "特刊借鉴了2022年10月26日至28日在英国伦敦大学学院巴特利特建筑学院与利物浦大学建筑学院合作举办的第二届同名国际现代遗产策展人会议的成果。作为一个成立于2020年的全球性合作组织,MoHoA关注的是现代遗产理论与实践的去殖民化,并加入到更广泛的全球努力中,对从事与我们集体近代史相关的物质文化的研究、收集、估价或转化的机构实践进行去殖民化--从博物馆馆长和创意从业者到学术界和建筑环境专业。我们岌岌可危的现在反映了不公平的过去和危险的未来,基于这一事实,现代艺术博物馆认为,现代遗产--与西方的进步、现代化和现代性概念密不可分--在概念上、实践上以及作为艺术品,都独特地、不成比例地赋予了西方、无一例外是白人的经验和价值观以特权。与其他类型或分类的遗产不同,现代遗产还反映了现代艺术博物馆的核心存在悖论,即我们近代的文化遗产既是现代性的产物,又受到现代性后果的威胁。通过其研讨会、会议、出版物和网站,MoHoA 提供了一个分享知识、方法和途径的平台,这些知识、方法和途径对现代主义经典提出了挑战,并支持构建新的认识论,其核心不是种族、肤色或民族,而是人类和我们在这个星球上自我造成的岌岌可危的地位。这种认识论和典籍的重构对全球博物馆和遗产实践具有重要影响,因为现代遗产的重构及其相关的知识生产和登记模式将引导藏品、清单和档案的构成脱离神话化的西方霸权认识论传统,转而反映人类或非人类的体面的地球经验。开普敦现代遗产文件》的出版是这一集体修复努力的一项重要成果,它是一项公平和去中心化的政策建议,将于 2023 年提交给联合国教科文组织及其咨询机构。

As a global collaborative established in 2020, MoHoA is concerned with decentring the theory and practice of modern heritage and joins the wider global effort to decolonize institutional practices that engage with the research, collection, valorization, or transformation of material culture associated with our collective recent past—from museum curators and creative practitioners to academics, and the built environment professions. Founded on the fact that our precarious present reflects an inequitable past and a perilous future, MoHoA asserts that modern heritage—inextricably bound as it is to Western notions of progress, modernization, and modernity—conceptually, practically, and as artifact, uniquely and disproportionately privileges western, invariably white, experiences and values. Unlike other kinds or classifications of heritage, modern heritage also reflects the existential paradox central to MoHoA whereby the cultural legacies of our recent past are simultaneously of modernity and yet threatened by its consequences. Through its workshops, conferences, publications, and website, MoHoA provides a platform for sharing knowledge, methods, and approaches that challenge the modernist canon and support the construction of new epistemologies centered not on race, color, or ethnicity but on humankind and our self-inflicted precarious position on this planet.

While framing the importance of everyday life as a drive for institutional exhibitions, this paper investigates the process of home making in Tehran from 1925 to 2013. The period 1925–1979 marks the rule of the Pahlavi dynasty when modernization was systematically implemented in Iran. This period ended with the Iranian revolution, which laid the foundation for a welfare state, which in spite of great promises declined in essence at the end of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's presidency in 2013 when the country moved towards privatization while welcoming non-Western imperialism. Using domestic objects and cultural rituals, the investigation reveals how the domestic realm reflects local and global politics that have shaped the country for the last hundred years. The paper argues that the domestic realm has been a significant everyday context for mediating two grounds simultaneously: On the one hand, it pursues central planning strategies to secure various states' political gains; and, on the other, it serves as a platform for tactics that resist these strategies through spatial and material expressions.

在将日常生活的重要性作为机构展览的驱动力的同时,本文调查了 1925 年至 2013 年德黑兰的家居制造过程。1925-1979 年是伊朗系统实施现代化的巴列维王朝统治时期。这一时期随着伊朗革命的结束而结束,革命为福利国家奠定了基础,尽管做出了巨大的承诺,但在 2013 年马哈茂德-艾哈迈迪-内贾德总统任期结束时,福利国家在欢迎非西方帝国主义的同时走向私有化,福利国家实质上已经衰落。调查利用家庭物品和文化仪式,揭示了家庭领域如何反映了过去一百年来塑造该国的地方和全球政治。本文认为,家庭领域一直是一个重要的日常环境,它可以同时调解两种理由:一方面,它奉行中央规划战略,以确保不同国家的政治利益;另一方面,它又是通过空间和物质表现形式抵制这些战略的策略的平台。

Photoanthropocene: The decentered lens of colonial photography 摄影人类:殖民摄影的非中心镜头

Photography—what Barthes called “the living image of a dead thing”—is often overlooked in discussions of cultural heritage decolonization. This paper focuses on a historical photograph attributed to the Hong Kong commercial photographer Lai Fong 黎芳, also known as Afong, that documents the aftermath of the Tianjin massacre of 1870. A photographic print of the image is held in the Robert Hart collection, a little-known collection of historical photographs accumulated by the Irishman Robert Hart during his half-century as an administrator in China. Like many such collections—and like Tianjin itself in the late Qing period—the photography collection resists easy categorization, and sits uneasily between Europe and Asia, Chinese and foreign, imperial and anti-imperial. This essay proposes a “photoanthropocene” perspective, drawing on theoretical writing by Mirzoeff, Zylinska, and others to locate colonial photography within the early anthropocene. The photoanthropocene offers new ways to understand, interpret, and decolonize colonial photography.

摄影--巴特称之为 "死物的活图像"--在文化遗产非殖民化的讨论中常常被忽视。本文重点介绍一张由香港商业摄影师黎芳(又名阿芳)拍摄的历史照片,该照片记录了 1870 年天津大屠杀的后果。罗伯特-哈特作品集》收藏了这张照片的印刷品,这是爱尔兰人罗伯特-哈特在中国担任行政长官的半个世纪中积累的历史照片,鲜为人知。与许多此类藏品一样--就像晚清时期的天津一样--这批摄影作品难以简单归类,在欧洲与亚洲、中国与外国、帝国与反帝国之间徘徊不定。本文提出了 "摄影人类世 "的视角,借鉴米尔佐夫、齐林斯卡等人的理论著作,将殖民时期的摄影作品置于早期人类世之中。摄影人类世提供了理解、解释殖民摄影并使其非殖民化的新方法。
