Description

Inspired by the ongoing debate on the restitution of plundered objects held by Western museums, we can interrogate the role of cultural institutions in planetary repairing. The acceleration of global extinctions leads us to consider institutions’ conservation work with a new look. Could care and maintenance knowledge be expanded to more-than-human collectives? In times characterized by the disappearance of refuges, how might cultural spaces contribute to restoring, regenerating, and protecting life?
