Field/Works II - Generating Ecologies of Trust
View the online exhibition project, Field/Works II: Generating Ecologies of Trust, curated by ANTART members Maxime Le Calvé and Jen Clarke, where artist-anthropologists have produced multi-modal works that resonate with the conference theme.
The Art of Observation - If anthropologists are masters of the art of observation, then what kind of art can their observations inspire?
This exhibition features editorial illustrations created by artists inspired by short public anthropology articles, and builds a bridge between academia and art and highlights the transformative power of the two fields, as well as the interdisciplinary collaboration. Behind each article there is often ethnographic research work spanning several years. In a way, it could be said that at the heart of this exhibition there is a cumulative body of work spanning hundreds of years - an atypical endeavour in a world increasingly dominated by speed and quick results.
All day Tue-Fri, Facultat de Geografia i Història, 1st floor.
Architecture Of An ArchAn installation that explores another model of spatial limit from the trace our body leaves on the ground when it relates with other bodies — human or not. In a participatory workshop, you will build and experience cardboard architectures that arise from that conversation between bodies, exploring if and how they affect your behaviour and perception of your body.
All day Tue-Fri, the entrance of Facultat de Geografia i Història.
The Ethnographic Salon is a creative lab that features experimentation and performative exchange of artistic work-in-progress inspired by field experiences that ill-fit academic writing and theorizing. The aim of the Ethnographic Salon is to inspire innovation in ways that surprise and transform the discipline.

Welcome
The conference will be hosted by the Department of Anthropology of Universitat de Barcelona (UB). Catalan and Spanish anthropology have been historically peripheral to the big schools of anthropological research, but in the last decades they have experienced a considerable development, and established an open dialogue and strong ties with European and Latin American anthropology. We have opened the call for panels to our local languages, Spanish and Catalan, in addition to EASA´s official languages, English and French.
Venues
The two main venues of the conference will be the Facultat de Geografia i Història of UB and the Museu Marítim de Barcelona. Read more about the venues and their location in El Raval.
