D.Phil. University of Oxford, 2000 I am a sociocultural anthropologist with research interests in expressive and symbolic culture; especially the anthropology of art, museum anthropology, and engaged anthropology-with an evolving focus on the anthropology of climate change. Beginning with extensive fieldwork in China spanning several decades, my work on the intersections between traditional and contemporary art has become increasingly global, bringing together issues concerning consumption and material culture, globalization and social change, migration and refugees, environmental art, and the subtle intersection between shared and restricted knowledge. I aspire towards collaborations-between students and teachers, artists and anthropologists-and applied learning to develop creative, cross-cultural forms of engagement to envision and create a humane climate and future. Primary Current Project: Museums Without Borders is comprised of several past and ongoing collaborative exhibitions developed through a collective of anthropologists, artists and museum curators. While topics have varied, its current priority is to engage with the climate crisis by uniting the unique qualities of anthropology, art and museums through displays beyond the conventional spaces of museums. We seek to identify innovative ways to help create a humane climate, broadly defined. Selected Publications: "'A Hundred Ways to Learn' About Zhang Hongtu." 2015.
