The Association of Art Museum Curators will host a live webinar on "International Perspectives on Museum Interpretation" on the 21st July 2020, 9:00-10:15am (Eastern Time).
Moving beyond traditional gallery texts, this webinar addresses new interpretive methods with close attention to the roles that language and technology play. Speakers from institutions in Asia, Europe and the US will outline the multi-sensory strategies their own exhibition teams have used to enhance installations, activate works of art, and facilitate deeper connections for visitors. The panel will also explore the broader challenges and opportunities inherent in interpreting for diverse, international audiences. Speakers will include Jeanne Goswami (Interpretive Planner and Editor, Peabody Essex Museum), Jovanna Scorsone (Education and Public Engagement Manager, Aga Khan Museum), Cherry Thian (Senior Manager, Audience Department, Asian Export Art, Asian Civilizations Museum), and Katy Wan (Assistant Curator, Tate Modern).
