The festival takes over the History galleries from within the Arad Museum, reinventing this space as a location for artistic experimentation during the following two years. The work on view takes as its starting point the cabinet of curiosities / Wunderkammer, as the predecessor of the modern (and contemporary) museum, and responds to the newest definition of the museum, formalized in August 2022 at the International Council of Museums (ICOM) conference in Prague. The video and media installations included in this year's edition are a rejoinder to a complex project initiated by kinema ikon during last year's festival, MAFA 8 - in:between.
