Read the Whose Heritage 3.0 Curatorial Fellowships Report
The Whose Heritage & 3.0 Curatorial Fellowships are the third iteration of a series of collaborations with museums in which Culture& has sponsored the recruitment of talent from underrepresented backgrounds to help diversity the curatorial workforce. This implements a key recommendation in the report It’s All about Handing Over Power that Culture& co-authored for the Art Fund with Museum X. The Fellowships are named in honour of the great cultural studies scholar Stuart Hall, who wrote:
‘Unless the younger generation has access to…cultural repertoires and can understand and practice them, to some extent at least, from the inside, they will lack the resources – the cultural capital – of their own “heritage”, as a base from which to engage other traditions.’
– Stuart Hall (1999) ‘Whose heritage? un-settling ‘The heritage’, re-imagining the post-nation,’ Third Text 49: 3-13.
