England Hidalgo's How Not to Gaze at the Colonial Archive, curated by Rebeca Abidaíl Flores at SOMArts' Ramp Gallery, examines U.S. colonial rule in the Philippines and anthropology's role in it. Laser ink prints on dried polymer emulsion re-present Filipino portraits from the 16th-century Boxer Codex and from zoologist Dean C. Worcester's photographs, turning the colonial gaze back on itself.
