Popis: This chapter refers to the Ethnographic Terminalia Collective (ETC), which has staged projects in North American cities exploring intersections between art and anthropology. It analyzes the work that has been manifested in the organization and curation of exhibits alongside the annual meetings of the American Anthropological Association (AAA) and inspired by emergent interdisciplinary art practices. It also illustrates projects that have been “para-sites,” which are used to draw anthropologists from the conference venue into arts and cultural spaces in local host cities. The chapter examines a curatorial mode that builds upon critique and argues for the potential of a more experimental anthropology that activates creative practice. It looks at the core of the experimental curatorial model that engaged with multiple modes of collaboration.
