DESCRIPTION:Steven Nelson will speak at the Seminar on Museum Conversations
  on Wednesday\, September 15\, at 12:15 pm. His talk is entitled “From the
  Academy to the Museum: Thoughts on Scholarship in Different Contexts.” Ne
 lson writes: “The Center for Advanced Study\, founded in 1979\, fosters sc
 holarship into the arts\, architecture\, and visual cultures without regar
 d to geography or chronology. Throughout its history\, researchers from ac
 ademia\, museums\, and beyond have pursued their projects to different end
 s. Understanding the Center as existing at the intersection of the academy
  and the museum\, this discussion considers the similarities and differenc
 es of scholarship in these two venues.”Steven Nelson is Dean of the Center
  for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts at the National Gallery of Art\, Wa
 shington\, DC. Nelson has published widely on the arts\, architecture\, an
 d urbanism of Africa and its diasporas and on queer studies. Nelson is pro
 fessor emeritus at the University of California\, Los Angeles\, where he s
 erved as director of the African Studies Center and advised the university
  on its diversity and inclusion strategic planning. Before assuming the ro
 le of dean\, he was the Center’s Andrew W. Mellon Professor. Most recently
 \, he has joined the Kress Foundation Board of Trustees and has been named
  as a member of the Society of Architectural Historian’s 2021 class of fel
 lows. Nelson earned a BA in studio art from Yale University and an AM and 
 a PhD in art history from Harvard University.This event will be held via Z
 oom. A link will be circulated to registrants by 10 am on the day of the e
