Professor Dan Hicks will discuss his incredible new book Every Monument Will Fall: A Story Of Remembering And Forgetting, a beautifully written, polemical but generous work. Tracing the origins of contemporary conflicts over art, heritage, memory, and colonialism, Every Monument Will Fall joins the dots between the building of statues, the founding of academic disciplines like archaeology and anthropology, and the warehousing of stolen art and human skulls in museums – including the Pitt Rivers Museum, where he is a curator.
Advanced booking strongly recommended.
