Created in 2006, PEOPLE’S MUSEUM OF BANGLADESH is, on one hand, an organic and networked archive for information, documentation and, theorization of the issue of displacement, labor, language and, immigration and, on the other hand, it aims to be the largest searchable database and data capturing agency by and for the South Asian Immigrants living and working in Europe.

What We Do

PEOPLE’S MUSEUM engage in ambitious investigation in urban art making addressing real life issues and populations not served by Museums or any art agency, offering them not only real life solutions but shared authority and, a voice in the creation of a process of mutually empowering endeavor, fostering dialog and discourse for collaborative action.

One way to approach the difference between traditional museum art and PEOPLE’S MUSEUM’s work is through the object. Our work is intended to lead away from the object into the lives of real people, real neighborhood, real communities. The involvement in real time and space opens up our projects, and the importance of this kind of involvement to an understanding of real life situation and crisis rise, with particular urgency, one of the most fundamental of all contemporary art issues: social responsibility.
PEOPLE’S MUSEUM conceives and creates theoretical/artistic/knowledge infrastructures for south Asian immigrant communities/cultural groups/enterprises in the globalized art world.
