The exhibition will present objects from the contexts of fine art, ethnography and craftsmanship in parallel, and offer these as a basis for discussion. As an art museum, the starting points are always the works of art, around which the objects on loan from other museums are built.

 

In contemporary art, the last decade and a half has seen an increasing number of works made using traditional craft techniques on display. One of the reasons for this can be found in a critical reassessment of the hierarchy of art, traditional genre boundaries and artistic methods. This is also reinforced by the existing institutional separation, which can be seen in the functioning of the art, ethnographic and, to some extent, applied art collections. When visual artists turn to these techniques and methods, they are far from always seeking to dismantle the established canonical system, but rather to reinterpret existing concepts and practices and examine their usability today.
