What The Great Museum Is About
The documentary was shot over more than two years behind the scenes at the art history museum in Vienna. The camera goes to the restorers’ tables, into the storerooms, into the preparation of exhibitions and into management meetings; what kind of institution a museum is becomes visible through the work of one person after another. There is no narration, no interview and no music, and events are simply watched as they happen. Small disagreements and everyday details are given the same weight as the great works of art beside them. Johannes Holzhausen, who trained as an art historian, leaves open the tension between conserving and displaying, and the question of what a museum is for today. The ninety four minute Austrian documentary was completed in 2014.
