Abstract

Embedded into the Centraal Museum Utrecht's historical exhibition 'De gezonde stad' ('The healthy city'), this project draws on the expertise of historians, museum practitioners and artistic researchers. It connects two question complexes which appear urgent during the COVID-19 crisis: 1) How is disease experienced, documented and remembered at the collective level of society? 2) What is the role of art and memory culture in such a crisis?
