Banu Karaca

Banu Karaca works at the intersection of political anthropology and critical theory, art, aesthetics, and cultural policy, museums, and feminist memory studies. Her publications interrogate arts censorship, gender and visual literacy, and questions of restitution. Banu is the co-founder of Siyah Bant, a research platform that documents censorship in the arts in Turkey. Currently a EUME Fellow of the Volkswagen Foundation, Banu continues her research on how looted and dispossessed art has shaped the legal and scholarly knowledge production on art in Turkey and the wider European context. Her stand-alone essay, Art in War: Cultural Heritage and the (Legal) Codification of Forgetting, will be published in late 2021.
