To visitors of the Chopin Muzeum in Warsaw, this permanent exhibition – a project defined as an “open museum” – presents itself in close dialogue with the existing architecture. The 11 different, clearly designed exhibition spaces are easily accessible thanks to their well-conceived didactic concept, each telling an independent story. The overarching concept of “emotional soundscapes” posits the exhibition content and its displays in a new context. Interactive systems, musical variations and multimedia environments offer – in eight languages and across four perceptual levels – varied options of perception and information. The exhibition fosters individual as well as group experiences.
