Museum projects
Identity on the Line (I-ON) Identity on the Line (I-ON) is a large-scale cooperation project between six cultural history museums and one university, working together to explore the long-term consequences of different migration processes, forced or voluntary, which took place in Europe over the last 100 years. The project is a broad cooperation between museums in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Poland, Lithuania, Slovenia and Croatia. Starting with similar approaches and using the same methods, each museum will work on one important migration process in its country by collecting and facilitating sensitive narratives in local exhibitions and uncovering challenges which have not been addressed before. The main findings and common features will be summarized and made available as a joint travel exhibition within Europe and a digital package for education.
Leading partners: Muzej Vest-Agder; voditelj projekta: Dr. Kathrin Pabst
Istrian Traditional instruments Online (ITI-Online) is a virtual platform dedicated to Istrian traditional instruments and the traditional music of Istria. This web edition is the continuation of the project of the Ethnographic Museum of Istria which resulted in the publication of the catalogue Istrian traditional instruments from the collection of the Ethnographic Museum of Istria. The idea for the ITI is to come alive as a platform to create a virtual database of open access dedicated to traditional instruments of Istria, no matter where these instruments are physically located. In addition to presenting the collection of instruments from the EMI, the online database includes also information on the instruments from other collections.
