Join a thought-provoking panel discussion titled 'The Appeal of the Pious Object: Collecting and Memory'. The session, moderated by the curator of the exhibition, will delve into the significance of collecting in shaping personal and collective memories. Participants will explore how objects can embody historical narratives and cultural identities, and the ways in which they influence our understanding of the past. The conversation will engage experts in the field, inviting reflections on the emotional connections we form with items we collect, whether they are heirlooms, artifacts, or contemporary art. This discussion aims to deepen appreciation for the stories that collections tell and their role in preserving cultural heritage.
