The Lost Museum – Department of Humans

The Lost Museum is a pop up museum that is touring various parts of the world in different forms and formats. While the exhibitions are unique, the concept is always the same: to break established boundaries and categories, and to display art, historical documentation, everyday objects and curiosities side by side, challenging the idea of what a museum can or should be.

In Oslo, this project is entitled The Lost Museum – Department of Humans. The exhibition is composed of objects from different archives and museum collections from all over Norway, and explores the way in which Northern European culture has defined and redefined what it means to be a human being.

Curator: Charles Esche

The exhibition is part of the series Munch Museum on the Move, and is shown in a temporary gallery in Dronning Eufemias gate 34, next door to Oslo Kunsthall.
