Dayanita Singh’s Museum Bhavan helps us reimagine what a museum is. The museum as an institution holds memory; what memories, and for whom? What would a museum without walls look like? How ought pieces that were historically stolen be engaged with now? What is the museum’s role in educating new migrants in this specific place? Join three brilliant cultural producers who are engaging/disrupting/rearranging in varying and strategic ways with the changing role of museums in society. Laura June Albert moderates ‘New Museology’ featuring Shaheen Nanji, Jordan Wilson and Marika Echachis-Swan. Tiffin Talks at ISF2018 was supported by Vancity. Special thanks to our major partners Simon Fraser University, Langara College and Creative BC, our media partners The Georgia Straight, CBC, and Spice Radio, and our funders Government of Canada, City of Vancouver, Vancouver Foundation, British Columbia Arts Council, and Business for the Arts.
