Zu Beginn eines jeden neuen Kapitels des Museums wandeln sich die Erwartungen der Gesellschaft, die Anforderungen der Arbeit des Konservierens und PrÀsentierens und damit auch die Anforderungen an den Raum.
So gab es im Laufe der Geschichte mehrere Umbauprozesse, deren Ziel es war, die Museumsarchitektur fĂŒr die wachsende Arbeit des Museums zu optimieren. Aber welche Faktoren und BedĂŒrfnisse beeinflussen die Museumsarchitektur? Wie haben sie sich im Laufe der Zeit verĂ€ndert und warum? Wie beeinflusst die Architektur die Museumsarbeit?
Im GesprĂ€ch mit Lilli Hollein, Direktorin des MAK und Alicja Knast, Direktorin der Nationalgalerie in Prag fragen wir, wie Museum als offener Raum gestaltet und fĂŒr die Besucher*innen erfahrbar gemacht werden kann.
Diese Veranstaltung wird in Englisch abgehalten mit Zusammenfassungen in Deutsch. Moderiert von Vero SchĂŒrr, Raumdesignerin und Bereichsleitung Ausstellungen & Publikationen der TLM.
Vorausgehend findet um 16 Uhr der Vortrag âDesign als Tool fĂŒr die Gesellschaftâ im WEI SRAUM Designforum Tirol statt. Weitere Infos hierzu unter www.weissraum.at.

Every new chapter of the museum comes with a change of societyâs expectations, modernised standards of conservation and exhibition, and thus new demands on the museumâs architecture. As a result, museums are being renovated and extended to accommodate the ever-evolving work. But which factors and needs affect museumâs architecture? How have they changed over time and why? And how does the museumâs architecture impact on the way we work?
In conversation with Lilli Hollein, Director of the MAK-Museum, and Alicja Knast, Director of the National Gallery Prague, we discuss how museums can be designed as open spaces and made more accessible to visitors.
This event will be held in English with summaries in German. Moderated by Vero SchĂŒrr, experiential designer and head of exhibitions & publications at TLM.
In Cooperation with WEI SRAUM. At 4pm at WEI SRAUM Designforum Tirol: Presentation âDesign as a Tool for Societyâ. www.weissraum.at
