The Municipal Museum of Alcoutim, together with other museums in the Algarve, hosts the project “Backwards Archeology – a look in the future”, by artist Charlie Holt, since July 1st.
In an initiative integrated in the programming of the celebrations of the 25 years of its headquarters, the Alcoutim Municipal Museum receives 47 objects that “hide” among the heritage objects of three spaces; Alcoutim Castle and Casa dos Condes, in Alcoutim, and the Casa do Ferreiro, in Pereiro, surprising and encouraging visitors to find them and dare to observe and question the fossils of the future.
In the project "Backwards Archeology – a look in the future”, “Backward Archeology – a look to the future”, Charlie Holt surprises us and encourages us to participate “in a treasure hunt” of invented technological fossils, placed in various museum and heritage spaces in the Algarve.
These are objects that may be discovered by archaeologists and geologists in the years to come, presenting us with the challenge of looking at the questions about what is created, chosen and valued in the contemporary world.
