18.01.2022 Congratulations to Dr Yujie Zhu whose new book 'Heritage and Religion in East Asia' has just been published The edited book examines how religious heritage, in a mobile way, plays across national boundaries in East Asia and, in doing so, the book provides new theoretical insights into the articulation of heritage and religion. This project was developed from a workshop co-organised and funded by the ANU and the Institute of Ethnology, Academia Sinica, Taiwan in 2018. It has... been a successful international collaboration among three institutions: ANU, Australia, Academia Sinica, Taiwan and UCL, UK.

14.01.2022 Dr Jilda Andrews is a Yuwaalaraay woman, cultural practitioner and researcher based in Canberra. In this talk, Dr Jilda Andrews works within a framework of ontology, the study of being. As she writes, colliding ontologically in anthropological fieldwork is as routine as eating toast for breakfast; we train for it, we expect it, we write about and learn from it. These collisions enable our work, are captured in what we produce, and for those of us that work in museums, histori...cal collisions are distilled in collection and exhibition. But of the ontological collisions themselves - the sites where worldviews interface and exchange - there is still a lot to learn. In this lecture Dr Andrews looks at how ontological collisions can reveal a different kind of ‘culture work’ for museum practitioners today and how collections of cultural material and knowledges can become sites for ongoing collision. For more information regarding this event, please visit the Chau Chak Wing Museum website. The event will be hosted online.
