Exhibition, the journal of exhibition theory and practice published by the American Alliance of Museums seeks contributors to its Spring 2025 issue: The Ethics Issue.
At a moment when expectations of museums and their behavior are rapidly evolving, this issue asks: How should our institutions move beyond legal obligations to embrace notions of what is right, just, and equitable?
Whether addressing calls for internal transformation in relation to pay, hiring practices, or seats at the decision-making table or considering appeals for justice in relation to representation, restitution, and repatriation, all articles should demonstrate how museums are grappling with these complex issues and suggest how exhibition teams can move past legal requirements toward an understanding of ethical responsibility based on care and mutual respect.
Proposals are due July 16, 2024
