Onyeka Igwe’s solo exhibition at MoMA PS1 Three new sound works by John Grieve Where is the Ruskin Archive? Oxford Scholarships in Humanities Gallery curated by Dr Eleen M Deprez opened in Australia Ruskin alum Flo Brooks’ public commissionWhere is the Ruskin Archive?
The Ruskin hosted the workshop Where is the Ruskin Archive? earlier this year, an event initiated by Giulia Smith, Kate Keohane, Onyeka Igwe, Harold Offeh, and Daria Martin.
Laura van Broekhoven, Director of Pitt Rivers Museum, was invited to speak about the museum's history and recent efforts to recontextualise its collections in light of growing calls for the restitution and reframing of sensitive material acquired in colonial times. Other speakers included Dr Mishka Sinha who outlined her research at St John’s College that examines the college’s colonial past. There were lively discussions of artistic processing of such histories and an on-your-feet, live artistic experiment with some Ruskin archives, led by Harold and Onyeka.
The event was made possible with the help of the Ruskin's librarian, Laura Unwin.
