Programme Munich 2017

Wrap Up

As with every edition of TEM, Munich 2017 was filled with meetings, fun and a few surprises. The first day began with Museum Hack, our conference partner, leading a workshop to break the ice (including a game similar to speed dating). Later, they sang a song inspired by TEM, and introduced a scavenger hunt. That afternoon, the TEM Flea Market gave delegates three minutes to present their exhibitions or venues; it was as fun as always, with an array of shows on offer, from King Tut to dinos, Lego to football, and even Genghis Khan! The day ended with a fabulous party at our latest show “Magic City – The Art of the Street.”

On the second day of the conference, Tazeen Ahmad, founder of Humanity’s Heart, took to the stage to speak about how technology is helping refugees – from how mobile phones enable people to keep connected, and the Refugee Aid App, to how 3D printing allows prosthetic limbs to be created. We then enjoyed another exciting workshop led by Museum Hack, and later, in the Open Forum, SC Exhibitions’ director Christoph Scholz took remarks, comments and questions from delegates about the touring exhibitions industry and the future of TEM. To close the conference, Hannah Berry spoke about her new graphic novel “Livestock” and the current state of journalism, before signing copies of her book.

2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.

The TEM Flea Market Part I – The first 15 Presentations

Hosted by Christoph Scholz

One of the most enjoyable parts of the conference, the infamous TEM Flea Market returns this year with a difference: it’s split into two parts, giving visitors more opportunity to digest the content of the presentations. Delegates are given three minutes each to present their exhibitions and venues to the rest of us, providing a quick and entertaining way of knowing who does what, where.


Imagine3:30 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Imagine Exhibitions’ Coffee Break

Tom Zaller and his Imagine Exhibitions’ team are making exhibitions out of simply everything: Whether the Hunger Games films or the British TV series Downton Abbey, America’s biggest musical Hamilton or Jurassic Park. The only thing they don’t have (yet) is a coffee exhibition. Because they’re always eager to sponsor our first coffee break, we predict that “Starbucks – The Exhibition” by Imagine Exhibitions will be announced at the next TEM.


4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

The TEM Flea Market Part II – The second 15 presentations

At our 2nd TEM in Berlin a delegate asked: “Are used exhibitions cheaper at the Flea Market?” The question was never answered at past TEMs, so probably we’ll learn more this year. After the presentations, we will take a short walk from our conference venue to the Small Olympic Hall.


Magic City

UEG5:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.

The UEG Dinner Party at “MAGIC CITY – THE ART OF THE STREET”

Hosted by UEG, the “MAGIC CITY” team and Museum Hack

Our friends from Universal Exhibition Group, better known as UEG, are loyal TEM supporters, and you should be especially thankful because the UEG guys serve the very first drop of alcohol at this year’s conference!

But what will happen during our dinner party you ask? Well, we have plenty lined up! From 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. there’ll be a welcome drink reception and visits to our exhibition “Magic City” accompanied by tour guides. Afterwards, from 6:30 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. Christoph Scholz and Museum Hack will welcome everyone to the event, and then, from 6:45 p.m., you’ll be able to enjoy some fabulous food and drinks while listening to our DJ play lounge music.

But wait! There’s more! Between 6:45 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., you’ll also be able to enjoy our colourful street art accompanying programme: there’ll be a breakdancer performing in “Magic City’s” Market Place between 6:45 p.m. and 8:45 p.m.; from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., our Magic Lab will open giving you the opportunity to design your own street art under professional guidance – does an artist hide within you? Let’s find out! Also, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. there’ll be Calligraffiti workshops for all delegates. Calligraffiti mixes calligraphy, typography and graffiti, and involves artists transforming words into a visual composition – it’s another opportunity to set free your inner artist! And we can’t forget Museum Hack: from 7:00 p.m., they’ll be performing ad hoc, “not your grandma style” tours of “Magic City.”

Hannah Berry

Book talk and signing: Hannah Berry’s “Livestock”

It’s not TEM without a book!

A special book talk and signing with graphic novelist Hannah Berry. In their review of this hot-off-the-press graphic novel, The Guardian newspaper wrote, “Imagine – and to be honest, it shouldn’t be too hard – a world in which teenage pop singers are run not by rapacious Simon Cowell types, but by political spin doctors who sign them up to this or that party, with benefits for both sides.” Will this be reality when we meet again at the next TEM in 2019? The brand new graphic novel “Livestock” will be given free to all TEM delegates (as long as supply lasts).


kaleido Flying Fish3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Hannah BerryHannah Berry
Hannah Berry is a writer, illustrator, podcaster and editor. Her latest book, “Livestock,” is a satire on our relationship with the media, set in a world where pop singers are managed by political spin doctors, creating publicity for the artists and distractions from government scandals. Hannah studied illustration at the University of Brighton, and at the same time published her first graphic novel, “Britten & Brülightly.” Her second graphic novel, “Adamtine,” was published in 2012. Hannah has contributed to several comic publications, had her work exhibited in solo and collective exhibitions, and co-hosts a podcast. “Livestock is that rare thing: a comic book that has only grown more essential in the gap between its inception and its publication,” says The Guardian newspaper.
