Vitrina de Antropología (In)Visible. Cotidiano o extraordinario. Dos formas de mirar at Museo Nacional de Antropología (28014 Madrid), from 28 July to 31 December 2026.
Checked on 6 October 2026.
Overview
Starting from 28 July, the Museo Nacional de Antropología presents a series of objects from its collection in the display case of its reception area, through which it reflects on their current meaning.
From the perspective of anthropology, it is common practice to reflect on how certain objects used in everyday ways within their original contexts become works of art upon arriving at the museum. Similarly, debate surrounds why a piece that is aesthetically and symbolically relevant to a given community is transformed and loses its relevance when exhibited outside its place of origin according to the institution's discourse.
Therefore, the meaning of the pieces in a collection is situational, and its significance varies depending on who it addresses, the intentionality of the exhibitor and the subjectivity of the receiver. Through this selection of objects, the museum questions how this relativity affects the pieces that form part of its collection within a context of colonial hierarchies.
