MUSEUMS AND NEW URBANISM

Like other major European cities, Budapest has its own "island of museums"; our modern-day sites of pilgrimage. This is the context of the Liget project, an urban and cultural development plan that has transformed the Hungarian capital, involving several museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts. The director, László Baán, who is also in charge of Liget, will be at the Hay Festival to explain and elaborate on the project, and how it relates to comparable projects in Europe.

Isabel Fuentes, PhD in Museology of Natural and Human Sciences, has spent twenty years working in scientific communication and cultural management in institutions such as the Residencia de Estudiantes, the National Museum of Natural Sciences and the La Caixa Foundation. She is currently the director of CaixaForum and an expert in the transformation that a museum can bring about in the city in which it is installed.

Baán and Fuentes will talk with Miquel Molina, journalist and writer, assistant director of the newspaper La Vanguardia.
