    The Romare Bearden Catalogue Raisonné Project, Part I / Diedra Harris-Kelley / Camara Holloway / Samantha Rowe

    In the first episode of this two-part conversation, Camara Holloway and Samantha Rowe discuss the development of The Romare Bearden Catalogue Raisonné Project which was launched online in June 2025. The conversation is moderated by Diedra Harris-Kelley, co-director of the Romare Bearden Foundation. In 2020, the artist-endowed foundation formed a partnership the Wildenstein Plattner Institute, which is devoted to facilitating access to archival materials and publishing digital catalogues raisonnés. The project leveraged art historical, technological, and archival resources, including the Romare Bearden Papers. Working without the benefit of an artist inventory, Harris-Kelley, Holloway, and Rowe pooled their diverse backgrounds and expertise to recover vital information about the artist.

    The Museum Worker: Museum Architecture, From Threshold Fear to Open Invitation

    In this episode of The Museum Worker, hosts and CAA Museum Committee members Miriam Paeslack and Samatha Sigmon delve into the literal ins and outs of museum architecture today with experts in the field. This discussion features various stakeholders in the field: Erin Coe, a museum professional who has spearheaded major building projects; Lauren McQuistion, an educator and theorist specializing in museum architecture; and architects Paul Schulhof and Azadeh Rashidi, who design cultural spaces in both urban and rural environments. Working from the outside into the physical museum space, each speaker draws on their own experiences and case studies to underscore the imperative of incorporating the input of diverse voices along the design process. Museums today, all participants agree, must navigate between being beacons of unique design and crafting a meaningful environment that facilitates the institution’s role as a community anchor.

    Teaching Across Boundaries: Interdisciplinary Strategies, Community Practice, and Inclusive Learning

    In this episode of CAA Conversations, Feixue Mei, Yanbin Li, and Eric Millikin explore how educators break down disciplinary barriers through collaborative teaching, community-engaged practice, and inclusive learning environments. Through discussion of interdisciplinary teaching framework, examples of cross-disciplinary classroom collaborations, and projects such as culturally grounded Tarot-card design and the Boundless Bound Symposium and Art Book Fair, the conversation highlights how students learn to translate concepts across fields, reflect on cultural and social contexts, and develop critical, creative, and adaptive problem-solving skills. The guests emphasize how shared learning spaces, low-barrier activities, and thoughtfully integrated technologies support meaningful participation, foster curiosity and dialogue, and empower students to connect theory with practice across diverse disciplines and communities.

    S09E11 Performing Knowledge- Pedagogy, Institutions, and Speculative Frameworks PART 2

    In the second episode of this two-part conversation for CAA Conversations, multidisciplinary artists Lineadeluz (Darleen Martinez) and Edgar Fabián Frías shift from institutional critique to speculative possibility, examining how digital practices can reimagine pedagogy, knowledge production, and cultural stewardship. Drawing from examples in augmented reality, AI art, queer archives, and self-instituted platforms such as Lineadeluz's Selfie Institute for Selfie Studies (SISS) and Frías’s MOMMM (Museum of Multidimensional Mutant Maps), they consider how institutions can be performed, hacked, and collectively reauthored through care-based and community-driven frameworks.  The discussion explores digital pedagogy as a slippery and relational technology that resists fixed hierarchies of legitimacy and authority, particularly within systems that continue to marginalize experimental, interdisciplinary, and Indigenous knowledge practices. Martinez and Frías reflect on speculative infrastructures as tools for redistribution, proposing models of institutional governance rooted in futurity, embodiment, and collective imagination. Together they position the institution not as a static structure, but as an evolving performance, one shaped by queer worldmaking, technological magic, and the ongoing labor of reenvisioning how knowledge is created, shared, and sustained.

    S09E10 Performing Knowledge Pedagogy Institutions and Speculative Frameworks, PART I

    In the first of this two-part conversation for CAA Conversations, multidisciplinary artists Lindeadeluz, aka Darleen Martinez, and Edgar Fabián Frías examine the intersections of pedagogy, performance, and institutional power. Drawing from their experiences as educators, artists, and cultural workers, they reflect on how institutions shape bodies, knowledge production, and lived experience; often through mechanisms of trauma, exclusion, and legitimacy. The discussion considers the performative dimensions of teaching and scholarship, particularly within digital and interdisciplinary practices that remain marginalized in traditional academic and museum contexts. Martinez and Frías explore questions of accessibility, representation, and cultural stewardship, emphasizing that inclusion alone is insufficient without structural transformation. Through examples of performative and speculative art practices, they highlight strategies for reclaiming space, redistributing authority, and imagining institutions as evolving sites of possibility. Together, they propose speculative frameworks that challenge inherited hierarchies while opening pathways for more accountable, embodied, and future-oriented forms of learning and engagement.
