Many will be impressed by the grandeur of this large neo-renaissance building that was completed in 1889. Few, however, will pay much attention to the peculiar sculptural works embellished in the façades. Upon closer inspection, one can see a muscular, barely dressed, humble-looking Javanese man (recognizable by his typical Javanese headscarf) greeting a bearded European-looking man.

The key themes of the series are the heritage and memory of war and confict, contested heritage, and competing memories. The series editors seek books that analyze the dynamics of the past from the perspective of tangible and intangible remnants, spaces, and traces as well as heritage appropriations and restitutions, signifcations, museal- izations, and mediatizations in the present. Books in the series should address topics such as the politics of heritage and confict, identity and trauma, mourning and reconciliation, nationalism and ethnicity, dias- pora and intergenerational memories, painful heritage and terrorscapes, as well as the mediated reenactments of conficted pasts. Dr. Ihab Saloul is associate professor of cultural studies, founder and research vice-di- rector of the Amsterdam School for Heritage, Memory and Material Culture (AHM) at University of Amsterdam. Saloul’s interests include cultural memory and identity politics, narrative theory and visual anal- ysis, confict and trauma, Diaspora and migration as well as contempo- rary cultural thought in the Middle East.

  • Program Indonesian Textiles at the Tropenmuseum Book Launch
    Indonesian Textiles at the Tropenmuseum by Itie van Hout The Tropenmuseum Amsterdam holds an internationally renowned collection of textiles from Indonesia. Numbering approximately 12,000 objects, the majority of these textiles were acquired during the period that Indonesia was a Dutch colony. These textiles originate from all over the archipelago, from Aceh on Sumatra, to Tanimbar in the east. A small part of the collection was made in the Netherlands for artistic or commercial reasons. Indonesian Textiles at the Tropenmuseum examines the stories of those who made and used these collections, those who collected and brought them to the Netherlands, as well as those who have studied and exhibited them. During the book launch, we will explore questions such as: what is the importance of these collections today and what do they tell us about the material worlds in which they were created and used? How might a study of these collections help us better understand Dutch colonial and scientific histories and relations? In addition, in what ways have the study of textiles in ethnographic museums related to the discipline of anthropology in general and its subfield of material culture studies? About the author: Itie van Hout is former Curator of Textiles of the Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam, and is now retired. She is the author of Batik Drawn in Wax: 200 Years of Batik Art from Indonesia in the Tropenmuseum Collection (2001) and Beloved Burden: Baby Carriers in Different Countries (2011).

  • Universalism in Ethnographical Amsterdam – the Past, Present and Future?
    Universalism in Ethnographical Amsterdam – the past, present and future? By Daan van Dartel Collection Researcher Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam The Netherlands Paper presented for the conference “The World Under One Roof: Past, Present, and Future Approaches to Universality in Ethnographic Museums”, Vienna, Austria, August 19-24 2007. ______________________________________________________________________ On Friday June 23th of 2007, the Dutch Minister of Cultural Affairs, Ronald Plasterk, announced the foundation of a national historical museum in Arnhem, near the border with Germany. The wish to have such a national institution came forth from a discussion that followed the presentation of the canon on Dutch national history. The establishment of this canon again evolved from the awareness of a crisis in knowledge of Dutch people on their national history. Besides many discussions on the relevance and rather selective nature of such a canon and hence on the usefulness of such a museum, we at the Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam are trying to deal with our own history as a colonial museum as part of that national history. Next year, the Tropenmuseum will have finished its second large re-installment, which was started in 1990, and at this moment, we are thinking very hard about the direction our museum should be heading next. With all the complete overhauls of museums world wide, think of Quai Branly or Gothenburg, the Tropenmuseum is now trying to find out which path it needs to pave for it to be of great relevance in the future. Therefore, the museum needs to dive into its past, and needs to rethink its function as an ethnographical museum in society.

  • Virtual Realities and the Museum Experience
    VIRTUAL REALITIES AND THE MUSEUM EXPERIENCE How VR is improving the visitor experience at the Anne Frank House, Het Scheepvaartmuseum and Tropenmuseum Jennifer Willcock MA Heritage: Museum Studies Thesis University of Amsterdam Submitted to the Graduate School of Humanities at the University of Amsterdam in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Heritage Studies: Museum Studies Author: Jennifer Willcock Student Number: 11592702 Word Count: 17,194 Supervisor: Dr. Dos Elshout Secondary Reader: Prof.dr. Bram Kempers 1 ABSTRACT Virtual Reality (VR) has recently become a trend in museums worldwide. In 2018, three museums with very different missions incorporated VR into their exhibitions, each to diverse effect. By analysing the cases of the Anne Frank House, Het Scheepvaartmuseum and Tropenmuseum, it is possible to explore the many possibilities that VR technology now offers museums. This thesis will explore to what extent the interactive capabilities of VR can be used to enrich visitors’ experiences, and how it can encourage their engagement with the museums respective topics. Key Words: Virtual Reality, Visitor Experience, Authenticity, Interactivity, Accessibility, Edutainment, Disneyfication, Intangible Cultural Heritage 2 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the staff and my fellow students of the MA Museum Studies course for their support over the last 20 months - to share our enthusiasm for museums has been a joy, and I hope we will one day be colleagues again. I would also like to extend my thanks to Charlotte Bosman and Titia Zoeter, my interviewees, who were so generous with their time and provided many valuable insights on this topic.

  • Dwinegeri—Multiculturalism and the Colonial Past (Or: the Cultural Borders of Being Dutch)
    DWINEGERI—MULTICULTURALISM AND THE COLONIAL PAST (OR: THE CULTURAL BORDERS OF BEING DUTCH) Susan Legêne Introduction Th is chapter questions mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion regarding national identity, norms and values of Dutch pillarized-cum-colonial society of the fi rst half of the twentieth century. Th e ‘boundaries of the Netherlands,’ discussed in this volume in so many diff erent ways, will be approached here as cultural borders in defi nitions of citizenship. My argument will intersect with a second storyline, on the history of the Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam. Th is museum, founded in 1864 as a Colonial Museum, is one of the largest ethnographic museums in the Netherlands. It opened its doors in 1871 in Haarlem as a museum of ‘tropical products,’ and a center of expertise for the exploitation of Indo- nesian craft s, export crops and other natural resources. Th e museum changed profoundly when, in the 1920s, it moved to Amsterdam in order to become part of the Colonial Institute (founded in 1910), and its collection of tropical products were enlarged with the ethnographic collection of Artis, the Amsterdam Zoo. Aft er Indonesian independence the museum in 1950 was renamed as the Tropenmuseum, a name it has retained. Th is change of ‘world scope,’ from the colonial to the tropi- cal, was refl ected in its second major change in display policies. In the 1970s, the ‘Indonesian collections’ (both the ‘tropical products’ and the ethnographical objects) were stored. Instead, the museum in its new permanent exhibitions visualized daily life in the then Th ird World as a backdrop for the new policies on Dutch development cooperation.1 In 2003, the museum changed again.
