Feminisms in the Museum Trailer

Welcome to "Feminisms in the Museum", a five-part podcast series which explores different currents and schools of feminist thought, and aims to expand feminist perspectives on museum activities and experiences. Throughout the series, host Jena Samura is joined by various artists, scholars and museum professionals who take a look at what feminism means to them and how feminist activism and thought shape the way they think about, and work with, museums. From the museum entrance to its archives, from the programming of community projects to the stewarding of colonial collections, we ask: What would a feminist museum look like? How would it feel? How would it be designed and organized in its space and its structures? And what would its purpose be? Due to feminism being, of course, a very wide topic, this series does not aim to be comprehensive — we will not cover feminism in all its different waves, interpretations, goals, strategies, and affiliations. Instead, "Feminisms in the Museum" aspires to share a variety of voices and perspectives that can broaden understanding of feminist thought, sharpen critical approaches to museum practice and inspire new models of knowledge sharing, storytelling, welcome and care. “Feminisms in the Museum” is written and produced by Eliza Apperly and Alondra Meier. Sound design and editing by Benjamin Nash, Nora Mihle, Annelien Van Heymbeeck and Andreas König. Artwork by Diana Ejaita. Project curation by Michael Dieminger. Project management by Selina McKay. Our podcast is part of the 99 Questions programme at Stiftung Humboldt Forum im Berliner Schloss.
