Please join the Asian Art and Visual Cultures Working Group for an upcoming workshop with Stacey Sloboda, Associate Professor of Art History at the University of Massachusetts, Boston.

Professor Sloboda specializes in 18th- and 19th-century histories of ornament, decorative arts, and collecting and display and has published extensively on the global histories of Chinese porcelain. We will be discussing her recent co-edited volume Eighteenth-Century Art Worlds: Global and Local Geographies of Art, which examines the interwoven and cross-cultural histories of Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and European design. We hope that this workshop can be an opportunity to discuss Professor Sloboda’s current research and, more broadly, consider our own work in relation to emergent scholarship on global art histories. Please contact Shivani Sud for readings.
