Exhibition
Vor aller Augen: Benin, Nigeria
Project series
Veranstaltungsdetails
Eight Swiss museums have joined forces to investigate the provenance of their collections from the former Kingdom of Benin, in dialog with Nigeria. The Museum der Kulturen Basel houses 21 works from the kingdom. 15 works came to the museum after the British military attack of 1897. How does the museum deal with this collection? Employees move their workplace to an exhibition room and invite visitors to talk to them about the history, significance and future of the works.
