Professor Hicks has been at Oxford’s Pitt Rivers Museum since 2007 and oversees world archaeology. He spent a decade as a field archaeologist before becoming a student at Oxford University. His experience of being a post-graduate in Bristol and doing his PhD fieldwork in the Caribbean drew him into debates about the history and legacy of empire.
As a senior academic and an influential curator, he’s been active in unearthing and communicating the reality of how objects on display in our museums come to be there. He plays a strong role in an international movement seeking to change practices of display and ultimately to challenge the continued holding of cultural artefacts that arguably belong with descendants of the people who made them.
His recent book, Brutish Museums, is available from:

His recent book, ‘Brutish Museums’, was published at a moment when the debate had become even more heated and high profile. For the Leeds Phil & Lit he’s going to summarise the arguments and how his work is contributing to moving ideas forward.
