With growing mandates and virtually stagnant funding for the last couple decades, #museums and #heritage organizations have ever-reducing capacities. One of the answers is to join forces to go further together than we can alone.

This book speaks to me: “Museology…situates Beauty in relation to Goodness and Truth, suggesting how its persuasive force extends beyond the museum to the city and the world.”

Museum thinker & consultant💡I help museums innovate and manage systemic change across the institution ⚙️Mentor▪️Training and Research▪️Workshop facilitator▪️Exhibition development and outreach▪️socio-museology practice
Napoleonic cultural heritage is the topic of this full day symposium that shall bring together cultural heritage institutions, museums and battlefields as sites of memory. I shall be chairing Session 1, with some of Europe’s top museums in conversation, guided by these two purposely chosen questions. The first - Who owns Napoleonic heritage, what memory or memories does it represent and for whom do museums conserve, present and interpret it? The second - Is there a European narrative in Napoleonic history and, if so, how can museums reconcile that with the national narrative they usually engage with? By asking such broad questions we shall hopefully be engaging in more deeper ways with the European dimension of cultural heritage and consensual curation as a tool to reach this goal. If you are interested, do reach out on email [email protected]

The bluefin is always a point of reference (along with the Megamouth at Boola Bardip of course) of a great and successful glycerol mount
The 4-metre-long blue marlin specimen on display at the Museum is certainly one of a kind! These magnificent fish are typically found on the other side of the Atlantic, but when this specimen was beached in Wales in 2016, Museum scientists knew they had to act quickly to preserve it! Preserving this marine marvel in glycerol for both our scientists to study and our visitors to enjoy has helped us learn more about how these enormous fish live.

🦐 Curious to see how we can harness the real power of the sea? Make your way to ARTIS | Natura Artis Magistra Groote Museum and explore ways that we can cultivate land, sea, and the lab to provide for our ever growing population. Here's a little snippet of the sea video, told by Reinier (R.W.) Nauta, produced by BIND and animated by me at YIPP!
