New director brings a breath of fresh air to the Vorarlberg Museum!
The Vorarlberg Museum in Bregenz is facing a profound change: the new director Michael Kasper, who will take over the management from February 1, 2024, would like to bring a breath of fresh air to the cultural institution. The doctorate, who previously headed the Montafon museums, sees great potential in networking with other facilities and plans to let the results of non-visitor research flow into the future work of the museum. According to the reports of Kultur Online , Kasper has won the selection process, as he convinced with its extensive networks and his scientific expertise.
a successful year 2023
The museum already had great successes in the expiring year 2023: around 50,000 visitors visited the exhibitions, including many children and young people. Over 120 events attracted almost 12,000 people. The focus was on a new museum database and the move of 40,000 objects to a modern depot as well as on important topics such as memory of the end of the war and National Socialism. The upcoming exhibition "We were thrilled. Why?" From January 25, 2025, it will be shown how National Socialism was perceived in the region, which is reported byKasper's ideas go beyond the restructuring of the museum: an internal strategy process on the “Future Image 2030” is to be started. The aim is to create a new flexible exhibition format that also better conveys national history. In addition, digitization is to be promoted in order to address all population layers and to promote participation in the projects, in line with the new directorate, which not only wants to focus on state funds, but also wants to focus on transfer funds and new collaborations.
