Documenting Diversity: How Anthropologists Record Human Life

< Back to Our PortfolioDocumenting Diversity: How Anthropologists Record Human Life Smithsonian Libraries and Archives   Scope of Work SIE worked with Smithsonian Libraries and Archives to organize the content and edit the script, design the exhibit components and graphics, and fabricate and install the exhibition. Fabrication included mount making for several of the objects.   The exhibition explores four of the ways anthropologists have historically recorded the research: on paper, through photography, with sound recordings, and on film.
