November 25, 2009 / 7:00 PM MOV TALKS: What is the future of museum collecting?

The animals of Ravishing Beasts represent our past; what do the objects of our present and future look like?

Local cultural leaders Dr. Anthony Shelton of the Museum of Anthropology, Dr. Wayne Maddison of the Beaty Biodiversity Museum and Nancy Noble, CEO of Museum of Vancouver, will present slides of their most recent acquisitions and share insights on contemporary collecting practices.

The impetus for this talk is Ravishing Beasts, which showcases taxidermy from the Museum’s natural history collection that have not been on public display for over half a century.

It raises questions at a significant moment for museums. We are digitizing our collections and placing a growing emphasis on multimedia and web-based exhibitions and programs to better-engage audiences and enrich the visitor experience, yet what do contemporary collecting strategies look like in this context? What are the practices we must retain and what are long-held practices that should be questioned and rethought? What is on the horizon for collecting institutions like ours?

The talk is free and will be followed by a reception and chance to discuss the issues raised in the presentations. We are offering a special admission price of $7 for Ravishing Beasts.
