The current Tufts University Art Galleries exhibition “Staying with the Trouble” is a direct reference to Donna Haraway’s eponymous 2016 book that implores us to find new ways of being in relationship with Earth and its various inhabitants by “making kin.” this afternoon, TUAG invites you to join special guest Dr. Sarah Pinto in a conversation exploring ideas of kinship across each of its fall exhibitions. Pinto is a professor of anthropology at Tufts University, where she teaches and conducts research on kinship and histories and cultures of medicine, with an area emphasis on South Asia. Her most recent book is “The Doctor and Mrs. A.: Ethics and Counter-Ethics in an Indian Dream Analysis” (Women Unlimited 2019/Fordham University Press 2020), and she is currently writing a history of hysteria, the medical concept, in India.

Please note that guests will be required to wear masks and follow university COVID-19 guidelines.
