Public Work: A Public Humanities Podcast

Hannah Mooney and Molly Pailet stopped by Public Work to talk about "Monument Worthy," an exhibition they curated on the topic of "personal memory markers." Hear Hannah and Molly talk with Jim and Amelia about the monuments and debates informing their work, the forms of monuments to personal memory that were revealed in their exhibition, and the ways we remember, erase, and interrogate history through our relationships to material objects large and small. This episode is the first of several to focus on Gallery Lab, an exciting series of pop-up exhibitions, performances, and other programming at the John Nicholas Brown Center for Public Humanities and Cultural Heritage (Brown University). Public Work is produced and hosted by Amelia Golcheski and Jim McGrath. Questions? Comments? Find us on Twitter (PublicWorkPod) or email us: publicworkpodcast[at]gmail.
