Rewilding the Museum examines how artists and curators are navigating, resisting, and reshaping exhibition infrastructures to articulate new understandings of nature. Museums are anything but wild. Historically, art museums have functioned as key sites for the production of boundaries between nature and culture. Nature might be presented in form and image, but its processes must not be allowed to take hold within the museum’s architecture itself. Contesting such norms, artists have chopped through walls, filled galleries with dirt and brought plants, animals, insects and fungi inside. Other leave the the museum behind altogether to embrace the specificity of sites. At the same time, floods, fires and power failures—rendered increasingly frequent by a changing climate—threaten collections and controlled indoor climates. The museum presents a microcosm of environmental crisis and site for remediation. Rewilding the Museum engages the central paradox of restoration ecology: nature cannot be recovered as a past ideal, but must be reimagined as a dynamic system. In anticipation of the forthcoming book (Hatje Cantz, 2026), this talk presents key findings from a five year research and curatorial project hosted by Ny Carlsberg Foundation, Arken, and CApE. What would it mean to align the representation of nature with the condition of art’s exhibition, conservation and critique? How are new visions of nature emerging within and against the constraints of museum infrastructures?

After the event, there will be a small reception.
