Exposeeum
The Exposeeum (spelling: EXPOSEEUM) is a museum in Hanover , which shows pictures and exhibits from the 153-day world exhibition EXPO 2000 . It was temporarily closed in 2019.
history
In 2001, former Expo employees founded the Museum Exposeeum , which is located on the former exhibition grounds. The aim of the museum is to remember the first and so far only world exhibition in Germany. Photos, films, models of the site and individual gifts from the 153 participating nations are presented on 500 m² of exhibition space. The fund includes around 1,000 gifts for guests and around 3,000 films that the Expo Society has loaned to the museum. In addition to the exhibition, the museum also offers guided tours of the site of the former world exhibition.
According to its own information, the museum's sponsoring association has around 220 members. The association is not publicly funded and ran into financial difficulties several times.
The museum is criticized for not reflecting on the concerns before and after the exhibition, as well as the urban planning effects.
At the end of October 2019, the museum was closed because it had to leave its premises to sell the building. The city of Hanover made it possible for the museum to use an area of the former German pavilion in the Expo Park Hanover temporarily as a warehouse. Since then, the museum has been looking for new exhibition spaces.
