We are committed to a robust program of academic research and publication on artworks in our collection and artworks by visiting artists. This research is authored by:
- Indigenous and non-Indigenous art scholars, usually writing commissioned essays for exhibition publications
- UVA or other university students taking courses in Aboriginal art and culture or curatorial studies
- High school students enrolled in our Young Art Historians program developing college and career readiness skills
- Kluge-Ruhe staff
To learn about collaborations we’ve done with artists, art centers and other museums and cultural institutions, including past exhibitions and residencies, please visit the Collaboration Archive.
Note: The search feature only searches the title or author by keyword. It does not search the entirety of the pdf by keyword.
