ReInHerit

Who owns cultural heritage, and how will we deal with it in the future? These questions were the cornerstone of the EU-funded project “ReInHerit”, which is a joint venture by several cultural and educational institutions. In a collaborative process, the Graz Museum, together with the Museum of Cycladic Art in Athens and the Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation in Nicosia, developed a concept for a growing Travelling Exhibition, three Digital Exhibitions and a growing Digital Collection on the themes of conflict, craftsmanship and gender roles.

 The mission of museums is to make cultural heritage accessible to an interested public. That is why we have explored the question of how objects can be presented in space when the original itself cannot be exhibited. The objects shown digitally in space by the three partner museums are given an unconventional form of presentation that offers innovative ways of interacting. The flexible exhibition concept will continue to grow steadily as it is adopted and expanded by other interested cultural institutions.

ReThinking CONFLICTS – Wie zeigen sich Konflikte im Objekt?

Die Projektschau ReThinking CONFLICTS nähert sich über drei Objekte drei unterschiedlichen historischen Konflikten und Kontexten aus verschiedenen Blickwickeln an. Diese Perspektiven verdeutlichen die Komplexität von Konflikten und laden dazu ein, tradierte Erzählungen zu hinterfragen. Die ausgestellten Objekte stammen aus den musealen Sammlungen aus Graz, Athen und Nikosia.

ReThinking CRAFTSMANSHIP – Wie können wir Handwerk bewahren?

Diese Ausstellung beleuchtet unterschiedliche Arten der Handwerkskunst im Zusammenhang mit natürlichen Materialien und ihrer Verarbeitung, wie sie mit der gegenwärtigen Diskussion über Nachhaltigkeit und Umweltthemen in Beziehung treten und welche Bedeutung sie für das kulturelle Erbe haben.

ReThinking IDENTITIES – Wer bestimmt, wer ich bin?

In der Ausstellung ReThinking IDENTITIES liegt der Fokus auf drei Schlüsselobjekten, die Identitäten vom Altertum bis zur Gegenwart abbilden und thematisieren.
