Gallery Talk: Distributing Value in Global Kinship Economies

In this gallery talk Professor Small (Anthropology) will discuss how differential mobilities and materialities of money, things and persons across and within borders affect assessments of and ideas about value(s) in a changing world. He will draw on research related to migration, remittances, black markets, and financial technologies in Southeast Asia as well as comparatively across the Global South. This gallery talk is connected to the current exhibit, "Things We Value," on view at the Pick Museum of Anthropology (Sep. 15–Dec 5, 2026).
