The Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) – Canada’s largest encyclopedic museum – has a history of complex and fraught relationships with communities linked to its collections. Over the course of the TTTM project, we will embark on a reinstallation of the permanent Africa gallery through an anti-racist process grounded in fairly compensated community co-creation and co-curation.

Exhibiting Theory is a multi-lingual, open-access book series presenting humanities and social science theory and method relevant for and generated from museum interventions, performances, and curatorial experiments developed in partnerships linking academia with the museum and heritage sector.

In collaboration with the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, the Global Art Histories Pedagogy (GAHP) project examines how conceptualizing digital content for museum apps intended for the public helps researchers to address implicit biases and systemic issues early in the research design of art-historical projects.
