Description

Jane Wildgoose claims she just expanded a beachcomber’s collection but in fact her Wildgoose Memorial Library is a subversive infiltration into the nature of display, memory, knowledge building. Join us as we talk with Wildgoose about why we collect, what we remember, where we can find truth, and how we might think more creatively, and with more compassion about how we display objects.
