The Great Museum – Co-op between Cinemateket, NBK-Agder and Agder Art Center
E GREAT MUSEUM also addresses more profound issues: Is it possible to reconcile the conservation E The documentary THE GREAT MUSEUM is a curious, witty and humorous peek behind the scenes at a world-famous cultural institution – Vienna’s Kunsthistorisches Museum. The film offers glimpses of the day-to –day routine at the museum, but focuses primarily og micro-dramas featuring museum employees. For example, a conservator who discovers that a Rubens painting has been painted over several times and another conservator who expresses his despair in mending a model battleship with a few expletives. The movie also addresses more profound issues: Is it possible to reconcile the conservation of the objects with an up-to-date presentation? What part does art play in the representation of national identity in politics and tourism?

«Drømmer krever mindre krefter» – by Inger Marie Søyland and Elisabeth Juell. During this exhibition the artists will arrange workshops together with students from the University of Agder.
