From AAM:
As political, social, and security pressures mount, museums face increasing challenges in curating exhibitions, developing educational programs, and presenting content. From controversial artwork removals to the subtle self-censorship of complex histories, how are museums navigating these tensions? Drawing on an analysis of a recent survey about museum censorship co-produced by PEN America and Artists at Risk Connection, this conversation will examine recent incidents of censorship and self-censorship, the forces driving these decisions, and the implications for artistic and curatorial freedom. Presenters will discuss strategies for upholding museums as spaces for open dialogue while managing institutional risks.
