Vienna’s new-look Weltmuseum takes on colonialism
The Art Newspaper reports on the re-opening of Vienna’s Museum of Ethnology as the 4,000 square meter Weltmuseum Wien (World Museum Vienna), with exhibitions by RAA. As stated by the director, “The provenance of the collections is essential, and the voices of colleagues from the countries of origin of the collections explain to our visitors why they are historically important—that is an essential part of the new presentation.”
