“We used to build temples, and museums are about as close as secular society dares to go in facing up to the idea that a good building can change your life.”
– Alain De Botton
Museums, ever since they came into being, have facing criticism about being too heavy with history and also, for removing the historical life that birthed such artworks. The Bihar Museum is a museum of identities and reconstruction of histories and stories and within its walls, eras have been compressed and bridges can be formed.
In a unique collaboration with Bihar Museum, the Outlook Group brings a series of panel discussions on museums, their roles and their evolution as part of the Bihar Musuem Biennale’s second edition - as the second of such discussions take place on 24th June at Bikaner House, New Delhi.
