Spring Book Club
Library
Join Angela Tillapaugh, Interlibrary Loan & Document Delivery Lead, in this participatory, discussion-based program centered on The Friday Night Club by Sofia Lundberg, Alyson Richman, and M.J. Rose.

Tracing the Unknown, or How to Find Gaps in Provenance Data
Library
This virtual lunchtime talk will present experimental approaches to analyzing the histories of art objects and findings on the knowns and unknowns in provenance data. Recent restitution and decolonization efforts have shown that provenance has emancipated itself from a subordinate cataloging task in museums and the art market to become a self-conscious scientific endeavor with ethical and legal implications. While the minutiae of ownership and socio-economic custody changes are increasingly recorded digitally, they have yet to be analyzed on a large scale, as provenance continues to be recorded as unstructured data. By experimenting with AI in structuring museum datasets, the untapped potential of analyzing object histories on a large scale has come within reach.
Speaker Lynn Rother is the Lichtenberg-Professor for Provenance Studies and Director of the Provenance Lab at Leuphana University in Lüneburg, Germany. She also serves as Adjunct Curator for Provenance at The Museum of Modern Art in New York.
