Rec. #529: Uncomfortable Art Tours



What: Alice Proctor runs gallery tours (in the UK) that highlight the silent, problematic framework propping up a great deal of the art. Her "Uncomfortable Art Tours" focus on colonialism and the ongoing influence of genocide and empire on how museums handle collections.

Seems like very necessary context to have.

How to get it: If you're not in the UK, you can still check out Proctor's website, follow her on Twitter, and read a Guardian feature about the tours.
