Espionage has always excited people at different times. From spy thrillers to spy novels - the stories that gave adrenalin rush to our fantasies adorn the International Spy Museum. The history of the nation-state is marred with wars and espionage. In this backdrop, this Museum makes people aware of the (in)famous espionage operations and showcases gadgets like cypher machines, counterfeit currency, disguised weapons, miniature cameras, concealment devices for weapons, radio transmitters and receivers. This innovative idea makes people walk through the interface of today and tomorrow - a binding of present and the future. Outlook India in collaboration with Bihar Museum looks at all those innovative Museums that evoke memories to shape the future discourse.
The Delhi event will also become a museological space for an evening to look at everyday objects from Bihar from a not-so-distant past and their relationship with memory and culture and inclusive representation of various identities and crafts.
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 Museum Biennale’s second edition - as the second of such discussions takes place on 24th June at Bikaner House, New Delhi.
