Museum as Hub
The Museum as Hub initiative supports art activities and experimentation; explores artistic, curatorial, and institutional practice; and serves as an important resource for the public to learn about contemporary art from around the world. Both a physical site and an expanding network of international art spaces, initiatives, and artists, the Museum as Hub investigates the potential for mediation and exchange realized through residencies, exhibitions, and public programs. The Museum as Hub founding partners include: art space pool, Seoul; Insa Art Space, Seoul; Museo Experimental El Eco, Mexico City; Museo Tamayo, Mexico City; New Museum, New York; Townhouse Gallery, Cairo; and the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven.
