My name is Caro Verbeek and I am an art historian obsessed with smell. Currently I am finishing my PhD on (art) historical smells (with IFF and the Rijksmuseum). Furthermore, I love to teach others how to use their senses more effectively and attentively, so I developed several courses, including ‘The Other Senses’ at the Royal Academy of Arts (The Hague) and ‘Knowing by Sensing’ at the Vrije Universiteit. To ‘educate and entertain people’s nostrils’, I also founded the scent culture program ‘Odorama’ at Mediamatic (Amsterdam). My main goal is to re-narrate history from a sensory perspective by reconstructing and presenting historical scents and tactile poetry in museums and beyond.
