In this course students will be exposed to new trends in museum design ranging from bold new aesthetic visions, various forms of public involvement and the use of innovative virtual realities using examples from the Museums on Berlin´s Museum Island, London, in particular the Tate Museums, Paris in particular the Louvre and Musée d’Orsay, New York in particular the MoMa, Whitney and Metropolitan and various on-site locations worldwide. Moreover, holistic exhibition visions from artists such as Olaflur Eliason and Theo Jansen will also figure in these lectures. These lectures will be interspersed with practical guides on how to apply innovative design to small-scale and small budget venues and accompanied by students composing their own exhibition strategies. This will, I hope, help students to realize their visions in the often challenging first steps of their careers as cultural presenters and managers. The presentation of these designs in the form of power point or PDF documents at the end of the semester accompanied by an oral explanation will be the basis of the evaluation.
