Museums stand the test of time and are timeless symbols of constancy and permanence. The pandemic has shown otherwise: museums around the globe have found themselves facing challenges and a rapid speed of change unseen before. Trying to adjust to the new normal, museums experiment, take risks and become more and more open to constant flux and transformation.
How do institutions grapple with all the fluidity and uncertainty that goes with the pandemic, how can we, or should we redefine, not to mention, re-invent museums? What are the new future-proof museum models that will be sustainable? How will the museum landscape continue to evolve?
On the birthday of the Hungarian National Museum, as a prelude to the MuseumDigit 2020 (LINK) conference, we are presenting a special conversation of remarkable museum thinkers with Nick Merriman, Chief Executive of the Horniman Museum and Gardens in London, Yves Winkin, the former director of Musée des Arts et Métiers in Paris, hosted by Benedek Varga, Director of the Hungarian National Museum, Budapest.
Be prepared to hear some edgy, provocative ideas about the future of museums and dare to challenge them. Join the conversation streamed live on 25 November at 3 pm on the Hungarian National Museum’s Facebook page (LINK)
