Wandering Museum

Wandering Museum

It’s not created or destroyed. It is only transformed. What used to be shipping containers, now become containers for the democratization of contemporary art in Panama. An itinerant museum made up of 2 20’ containers, one becomes an exhibition hall, the other assumes the uses of the workshop and transports all the museum equipment when traveling. Both containers are intervened by Panamanian artist Cisco Merel making both boxes a public work of art themselves. Both volumes rest in a square with a simple aesthetic and volumetric image whose language fits in with the nuance of the museum's containers. Both, plaza and museum, generate the activity and contain the collective coalescence of the community.
