Director of Museum Studies Monique Scott Co-Curates Exhibition at Institute of Contemporary Art

Bryn Mawr Director of Museum Studies Monique Scott is co-curator of the exhibition "Colored People Time: Quotidian Pasts" on view April 26-Aug. 11 at the University of Pennsylvania Institute of Contemporary Art.

"The exhibit reflects much of the Penn Museum archival research I conducted with Bryn Mawr students over the summers of 2017 and 2018," Scott says.

From the exhibition website:

"Quotidian Pasts, the second chapter in the three-part exhibition series Colored People Time, reconsiders the trafficking of blackness through the colonial practices of collecting, commodifying, and exhibiting people and objects from the African continent."

ICA Assistant Curator Meg Onli is the other co-curator of Quotidian Pasts.
