Début de Siècle: Duvalian Decadence, Anti-Imperialism, and the Decadent Futures of Our Victorian Profession

Cherrie Kwok will focus on advancing her dissertation project about the relationship between anti-imperialism and a late nineteenth-century artistic and literary style named Decadence, and fulfilling her research agenda at The Decadence Research Centre, Goldsmiths, University of London, where she has been appointed as a Research Fellow. In addition to consulting relevant archival materials in the UK and Europe for her dissertation, she will focus on building a global network of artists and scholars today who are working with or studying Decadence.
