Conference
Museum in ¿Motion?
12 - 13 November / Sittard - Maastricht
Jan Van Eyck Academie / Museum het Domein / Department of Architecture
& Urban Planning UGent
Museum in Motion? intends to trace the history of the critical
correlation between contemporary art and the museum, to chart the
various institutional responses, and to place this within the broader
context of socio-political changes. The title literally refers to one
of the most important publications of the 1970s on the museum
discussion of that era: Museum in ¿Motion? The modern art museum at
issue / Museum in Beweging? Het museum voor moderne kunst ter
diskussie, published in 1979. Speakers will discuss the fundamental
changes that have occurred since its publication precisely one quarter
of a century ago.
The conference Museum in Motion? will comprise two meeting formats.
On Friday 12 November, a symposium with invited speakers is held at
Museum Het Domein in Sittard. On Saturday 13 November, a seminar is
organized that presents three sessions, two of which are based on an
international call for papers, and a third on the results of a closed
architecture competition at the Jan van Eyck Academie in Maastricht.
