The Museum and Curatorial Studies (MACS) Multi-Institutional Research Cluster (MIRC) is Co-Founded and Co-Directed by Lissette Olivares and Lucian Gomoll. Please visit our main website, http://www.macs-mirc.org/ for more information, including a list of current initiatives and affiliated institutions.

We first began as MACS at UC-Santa Cruz, a thriving organization that includes a Faculty Research Cluster sponsored by The Center for Cultural Studies, additional sponsorship by the History of Consciousness, as well as a number of member initiatives, including conferences, seminars, archives, and workshops related to the poetics and politics of display across various disciplines.
