Museums against tyranny

Narva Museum’s Maria Smorzhevskikh-Smirnova hung a massive ‘Putin, a war criminal’ banner facing Russia.
Now the Estonian museum director got an arrest warrant, her take? ‘It’s an honor! Been expecting this since 2023.’

Who said smaller states/museums can’t fight back?

Last chapter revised and submitted: 18,000 words trimmed to 15,000. It’s the first chapter I wrote, reflecting my early struggles—balancing case details with theory, amplifying interviewee voices while finding my own.

Dear researchers in decolonisation and museum studies,

I am working on a syllabus on decolonial museology. Do you have any recommendations? Any references, especially relating to Asian-Pacific context or digital fields, are super welcomed!!!

I think the success of this New Year’s crying event in TW isn’t just about love for Vive L’Amour (though I adore it!) or Yang Kuei-mei’s amazing performance. It’s about creating a space to cry, reflect, or feel dejected—so liberating when the world tells you to celebrate with cheers and countdowns!

Hi there, I’m an art historian and museum scholar finishing my PhD in queer intersectional curatorial practices. Looking for any contacts in research, curating, art publishing. Welcome to exchange for ideas, references, gossips, or anything that help us think and do otherwise🤓🤩😻🌷
PS. This is my cat.
