Future of Civilizations

Museum Congress

Future Art and Culture

The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts

A museum is a space where communication transcends time and boundaries. Even in an era of civilizational clashes, it remains a “meeting place.” Most importantly, the museum is defined by the people who bring it to life: its staff, visitors, and creators. They are the ones who preserve the unity of global culture, defending it against attempts at intentional fragmentation.

The third day of the Museum Congress will focus on the museum as a network of relationships between museum professionals, visitors, and artists. Additionally, the future of museum collaboration and cultural diplomacy will be a key topic of discussion.

Questions for discussion

What should the museum worker of the future be like (necessary competencies)?
Why will the person of the future visit museums?
What role will the artist play in the communication between visitors and the museum of the future? Will the artist “live” in the museum space?
The future of national museums: a trend toward globalization and a “world museum”? Museum diplomacy and museum cooperation in the future.
