WHAT'S STILL ON
FRIENDSHIPS , COLLECTIVE CREATIVITY 

Until February 13th 2023

During the 20th century, some artists and poets devoted themselves, to intersubjective experimentation and cooperative working methods. 117 works are brought together offering  different types of collaborative works from public and private collections.

This exhibition provides proof that philosophers, writers, musicians, filmmakers  have also produced experimental collective works which, by their very singularity, bring into play and question the scale of "market values" and the dominant aesthetic codes.

Come and enjoy this very special exhibition.

WHAT'S NEW

THE GUEST ROOM : MARKK  MUSEUM

Rotherbaum Hamburg 

  Until February 13th 2023

At the start of the 20th century, the Ethnographic Museum of Hamburg MARKK made the choice, to collect evidence of European material culture. It involved collecting objects perceived as “exotic”, from rural regions considered to be on the fringes of the profound social changes that were transforming Europe at the time.The objects presented in this exhibition carry a strong interest in so-called popular beliefs and practices, but also a questioning around the notion of identity.

 

WORLD MUSEUM CONNECTIONS

What is WMC?

The Mucem puts its network of partner museums in the spotlight. With 12 other European museums, they participate in the Taking Care project which is part of the Europe Creative program supported by the European Union. After the Archaeological Museum of Chania in Crete and the National Maritime Museum, the Mucem Guest Room will welcome a selection of ten objects from the European collections of the MARKK (Museum am Rothenbaum) in Hamburg, Germany.


MARKK MUSEUM
Rotherbaum Hamburg

Hamburg’s increasing significance in colonial world trade played an important role in the beginnings of ethnographic collecting.The museum takes a look back in order to look forward and presents a selection of the objects. The exhibition traces the objects in the collection and their stories as well as the development of the urban museum landscape.

ROYAL MUSEUM FOR CENTRAL AFRICA 
TERVUREN BELGIUM
The Royal Museum for Central Africa (Tervuren, Belgium) is a centre for knowledge and resources on Africa, in particular Central Africa, in an historical, contemporary, and global context. The museum exhibits unique collections, seen as the basis of thinking about revival of cultural and artistic practices. It is a place of memory in the colonial past and strives to be a dynamic platform for exchanges and dialogues between cultures and generations, in line with an ongoing process of decolonization.
