Upcoming Exhibition
Renaming – People, Objects, Places (from 4 September 2026)
With the exhibition "Renaming – People, Objects, Places", we are launching the decisive phase in the process of finding a new name for the Ethnographic Museum (Völkerkunde?museum in German). We approach the cultural diversity of naming practices from an anthropological perspective. How are acts of naming and renaming fundamental for both Social Anthropology and museum work? We invite you to join us in rethinking the museum’s identity and to engage with the question of what it means to rename an institution.
Opening on 3 September 2026. Save the date!
