Six talks, curated by Sasha Rossman, explore how borders and border crossings come into view – or are enacted and performed – through a variety of media and practices.

Border Topographies: Objects, Performances, Infrastructures

The talks will range historically from the early modern period to today and will examine a broad array of media including contemporary border infrastructures, printed textiles, maps of Louisiana, bells, board games, and digital mapping projects that track connections between French colonial sugar plantations and the 18th-century Parisian art market. Investigating the myriad ways in which borders and boundaries make themselves manifest necessarily involves examining how they are mediated through objects and practices. This series of talks invites participants to do just that, and to consider border topographies as part of an expansive media-scape.
