Researchers and curators from the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz, Freie Universität Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin and Universität Bonn present new approaches for exploring relational connections among ethnographic and global art collections from diverse world regions. The focus will be on contestations of belonging, cultural heritage, and knowledge infrastructures. The event, moderated by Barbara Göbel (co-editor, Director, Ibero-Amerikanisches Institut, Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz) aims at fostering the exchange on the future of collections and collection institutions.
