MANIFESTO
The theater museum reconstructed
Brief history
In 2022 it was 100 years ago that the very first International Theater Exhibition took place in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.
The Dutch Theater Association took the initiative to establish a Theater Museum. In February 1925 - the foundation was a fact.
In 2013 the direct successor to that Theater Museum, Theater Institute Netherlands, was closed down by State Secretary and VVD member Halbe Zijlstra.
liquidated
the Theatermuseum permanently closed since 2013
a new museum?
We may conclude that the present Dutch government does not intend to designate, let alone build, a new location for the restoration of the liquidated theater museum and institute.
The alternative?
The design and digital construction of the VR Museum and exhibitions from 1922 to the present.
SEE HOW ARCHIVED WORK CAN BE DISPLAYED IN A MIXED REALITY ENVIRONMENT
(no bricks and mortar needed)
The final goal?
A newly built Brick and mortar museum with hybrid exhibitions of historical models and documents, exhibited using the latest VR technology.
