Preserving and showing

Open stores draw attention to the collection beyond an ordinary exhibition wall. That does not mean every object is on view, but it can prompt you to look at selection and preservation.

Photography as a book

The photobook library offers another way of following images. Check what access and conditions of use apply if you want to spend focused time there.

Before you go

If necessary, book a loan wheelchair in advance. The café and restaurant may have different hours from the museum; check the current entrance and opening before you set off.
