Curating across epistemologies

Shaping knowledge through exhibitions
Multidisciplinary exhibitions are all around us: in science centres, technology museums, contemporary art galleries, national museums and natural history museums. Many of these installations rise to meet concurrent issues like climate change, human migrations and pandemics, which are broadly recognized to require many-faceted approaches. Others are multidisciplinary by method or intention as older collections are reapproached, reorganized and rec…
Metabolic Arts Gathering
Twenty years ago, artist Suzanne Anker and science and technology studies scholar Dorothy Nelkins published The Molecular Gaze (2004), a treatment of the social and artistic phenomenon of the gene as a cultural touchstone [1]. Despite the omission of many notable bioartists and other contemporary artists working in genetics and with lab techniques more broadly, the book proved an important clearing house for concepts to look for when examining ar…
What art can show STS about oil
Oil is deeply entangled with art. Through their art, contemporary artists play key roles in community organizing and social justice activism in response to the environmental effects of oil. Systematically considering artworks engaged with science and technology has the potential to add new dimensions to STS studies, including on studies of oil. Ethnographic and aesthetic work concerning the sociotechnical systems around petroleum and petrochemica…
Metabolism and Art
Metabolism holds potential as both a crucial topic and an analytical tool for our current biopolitical moment, for understanding the agency and significance of material forces as they move into and through bodies. From this vantage point, this article suggests practicing a metabolic gaze by reading together metabolism and contemporary art. It discusses ways of defining metabolism that might be productive in helping to produce tools and touchstone…
Art’s Work in the Age of Biotechnology
Art’s Work in the Age of Biotechnology: Shaping Our Genetic Futures is a multisite exhibition that explores art’s relationship to biotechnology. The main exhibition was held at North Carolina State University, October 2019–March 2020, and was sponsored by the Genetic Engineering and Society Center, the North Carolina State University Libraries and the Gregg Museum of Art & Design. The project included a Field Trial exhibition at Contemporary Art …

Cheering Artificial Intelligence Leader
Bringing together science and literature for purposes of casting these knowledge areas into relief is a well-established analytical practice. Rather less studied is the turn toward material practice as it has unfolded across science studies and the arts. However, this trend has the potential to open up new methods for thinking about science and literature and new forms of public engagement. This paper explores one possibility for combining creati…
The Practices of Art and Science
This dissertation explores the question of how art and science work as categories to circumscribe bodies of knowledge. I am interested in how specific knowledge communities label and materially shape artistic and scientific objects in contexts. People engage in rhetorical positioning th rough the creation of texts, style choices, making and unmaking the meanings of objects. Objects can be made to fit into the knowledge networks of art, science, o…

Inseparable Impulses
This article examines the role of aesthetics in scientific argument by analyzing two images. The first, from Ernst Haeckel's Art Forms in Nature (1904), depicts 15 bats evenly spaced on a white field. The second, Charley Harper's Darwin's Finches (1961), shows 13 finches, similarly displayed. Although these two images may at first appear to have little in common, they both present a specific interpretation of Darwin's theories using visual langua…
Amateur Knowledge
The science studies literatures on amateurs and citizen science have remained largely unconnected despite similarities between the two categories. The essay connects amateur knowledge and citizen science through examples from public art. Through an analysis of the use of the term "amateur" by contemporary artists working to engage the public in critiques of science, connections in the ideals of democratic knowledge making by amateurs and citizen …
