This cluster brings together staff from Art History, Conservation and the Gallery to explore intersections and divergences with Art and Architectural History as practised within and beyond the University and Gallery, especially in Heritage Management contexts. We explore the intellectual, economic , ethical and social benefits of collaborations with Heritage Management organisations, and the possibilities of engagement they bring. The cluster explores Heritage Management in a diverse range of contexts, but has an especially strong strand that focuses on issues and challenges in the study, preservation, and curation of religious and sacred heritage.
