Philippine Objects
in the Context of European Colonial Gears (19-20th Centuries)
WORKSHOP INTERNACIONAL | 6 dez. '24 | 09h30-19h30 | Auditório | Entrada livre
The workshop aims to provide a space for reflection and debate on artifacts of Southeast Asian origin present in European repositories in the context of colonial empires. In particular, the meeting will focus on a wide range of Philippine objects found in European family, ecclesiastical, private, or state collections, through the lens of European colonial gears in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The aim is to open up new working perspectives through a multidisciplinary approach to the cultural exchanges and power dynamics that existed at that time, allowing a plural and comprehensive understanding of how artifacts were produced, circulated and integrated into the context of European colonialism. To this end, several academics and specialists from various disciplines, including Anthropology, History, Art History, Literary Studies, Museology and Cultural Studies, participate in the event to share work experiences, ideas and analytical perspectives on the subject.
The symposium is a contribute to the ongoing efforts to decolonize academic and cultural institutions.
By fostering dialogue and collaboration between European Philippinists and Philippine-based scholars, it will generate new knowledge and perspectives that can inform future research and exhibitions.
