Sie werden sich vielleicht fragen, warum wir uns als Museumsmitarbeiter*innen, Restaurator*innen und Kunstinteressierte hier mit der Klimakrise befassen. Wer von uns hat nicht von der Klimakrise gehört, sich vielleicht selbst die ein oder andere hitzige Debatte zu möglichen Ursachen und Lösungen geliefert oder weiß, um ehrlich zu sein, gar nicht, was das alles mit der eigenen Person und auch noch mit Kunst und Kultur zu tun haben soll. Absolut verständlich, die Klimakrise wirkt zuweilen immer noch abstrakt, schwer zu begreifen und noch schwerer zu lösen.
We support UKSCN London in their effort to protest the Shell sponsorship of the London Science Museum. If you are in London, we encourage you to join their efforts!
Please read their call o action carefully: “We wrote a letter to the Science Museum calling on them to end the Shell sponsorship of their new exhibition on carbon capture and storage. Their response wasn’t good enough. Join us outside the Science Museum on the 22nd of May at 2pm to demand the Science Museum #DropShell Notes: Please remember to wear a mask and respect social distancing. We are asking groups to not bring any branded placards etc.”
“In the fourth week of the Matters of Care: Museum futures in times of planetary precarity conference series, we talk with Cissy Serrao, founder of Poakalani & Company, Hawai’i. Cissy and her family have been creating Hawaiian quilts for many generations. In conversation with Jeremy Uden and Misa Tamura, she shares her thoughts with us on the cultural significance and symbolism of quilting in Hawaiian culture, why the patterns and tradition are so important to keep alive, and how she teaches this exciting and beautiful art.
