The present catalogue is published as a limited edition free journal. 16 Hour Museum is an experimental vision of what a museum could be like, curated and organized by the non profit arts collective, AIT. Over two weekends in two sites, art works, video screenings, lectures and performances have been presented. 16 Hour Museum takes as its starting point the issue of how contemporary can generate different kinds of knowledge and what the role of the art museum could be within this. Biographies of the participating artists are provided.
