Spitzmaus Mummy in a Coffin and Other Treasures

First presented at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna in 2018, the Milan exhibition is a second version with a larger display area featuring 538 artworks and objects selected by the film director Wes Anderson and illustrator, designer and writer Juman Malouf from 12 collections of the Kunsthistorisches Museum and from 11 departments of the Naturhistorisches Museum in Vienna. Drawing inspiration from the past and from the model of the Wunderkammer, the exhibition challenges traditional museum canons, proposing new relations between the institutions and their collections, and between their professional figures and their public.
