1557326_998109410202484_5893531121619689955_oThe Ethnographic Department addresses the link between an art museum and an ethnographic museum, between “fine” art and “folk” art, and the tension that exists between original, restoration, copy and adaptation. All of these are aspects central to the curatorial thinking that has guided the Museum of the Contemporary since its onset.
The Museum was founded in December 2009 at the Mamuta Center in Ein Kerem, in the home of  Daniela Passal, formerly the home of Palestinian researcher Issa Manun and in the interim “absentee property”. 10911525_998108723535886_2357073617135420189_oThe first exhibition dealt with the museum as an institution, with the topography of Israeli memory, with the local historiography of the village Ein Karem and and with the home of the museum – the home of Daniela Passal. The Museum also developed a digital storage room of exhibitions which are not viewable on the net but are offered for downloading – each exhibition as a “package” for printing, exhibiting or re-installing – according to the physical and economic possibilities of the downloading body.

It was created by the German-Protestant Moravian community in 1867 and operated for twenty years in a building on today’s Agron Street, Jerusalem. In 1887 the institute moved to a new building in the Talbiya neighborhood of Jerusalem, planned by Konrad Shick. 10924686_998109270202498_2702693099809644315_n 10838189_998109310202494_4848023362611767216_o     905900_998108643535894_2037612605803309353_o

_DSC2278Drive-in cinema in a parking lot by the sea. An Argentinean soap opera is projected on the screen. On the stage, the two leading actors dub the scenes. The language they use changes, the translation becomes dubious, the design of the subtitles and the conventions of the genre are also transformed. The outcome is the last and only episode of a soap opera that exists on the border between mass television culture and avant-garde performance.
