Missing Continents at the British Museum

Artist Anthony Gormley reflects on the changing role of the British Museum.

• What is the hierarchy of cultural artifacts which the British Museum has traditionally represented?
• Has the Museum been successful in giving more attention to non-European cultures?
• What roles do inanimate objects have in understanding History?
• Can one culture be properly understood by another?
• Can the British Museum be seen as an exhibit in its own exhibition?
