About the workWhat is the role of a museum? Every year, experts around the world define and negotiate this. In the face of numerous crises, conflicts and economic challenges, the pressure on these institutions is increasing. Museums are expected to convey social values, preserve the heritage of humanity and still present spectacular artworks and attract large numbers of visitors. Spanish artist Max de Esteban comments on this in his ironic video. He addresses the pressure on art objects that does not want to end up in storage.
