Join artists, researchers, and art professionals for a symposium that uses the exhibition Rayyane Tabet / Alien Property as a starting point to challenge the concept of the universal museum—a place to see the whole world under one roof—and its relationship to material and digital cultural heritage.
Session 4: Closing Conversation The artist and curators of Rayyane Tabet / Alien Property join the symposium organizers for a conversation that considers the symposium as both part of and an outgrowth of the exhibition.
