The topic of conversation will be hyperlocality and strategies to preserve the uniqueness of the art project in the context of global transformations. How does a museum work with local communities? How is the inclusion of a wide audience in a local context? How is the balance between these flows maintained? How is the life of local communities and the individual in all its diversity reflected in museum projects? Do inclusive projects have local specificities?
