In this conversation, Adam Kuper, a social anthropologist, and Elizabeth Howard, host of the Short Fuse, discuss his book 'The Museum of Other People from Colonial Acquisitions to Cosmopolitan Exhibitions.' Their talk ranges from the influence of African art on modern artists, the role of museums in archival history, to the challenges of repatriation. Adam Kuper also explores the need for museums to reassess their role in a post-colonial world, suggests the importance of temporary exhibitions and collaborative projects and defines what could be, in his mind, the "new, new museum."
