Spitzmaus Mummy in a Coffin
and other Treasures
WES ANDERSON & JUMAN MALOUFTHE EXHIBITION At the invitation of the Kunsthistorisches Museum, the film-
maker Wes Anderson and his partner, writer and illustrator
Juman Malouf, have spent two years combing through the
1400 museum’s historical collections.
More than 400 remarkable objects are presented, many of which
come directly from the museum’s storage rooms and have
never before been shown in public. Among them are Egyptian,
Greek and Roman antiquities, Old Master paintings, selections
from the Kunstkammer and the Imperial Treasury, items from
the Imperial Armoury, Coin Collection, and Collection of
Historic Musical Instruments, as well as pieces from the
Theatermuseum, the Weltmuseum, the Imperial Carriage
Museum, and Schloss Ambras Innsbruck. A handful of special
guests from the Natural History Museum have also found a
place in the exhibition.
The gathering and arrangement of these treasures – from the
earliest, a necklace of ceramic beads strung together in
Ancient Egypt, to the most recent, a wooden monkey carved
in Indonesia almost 5,000 years later – suggest the spectacular
breadth, depth, history, and complexity of the Kunsthistor-
isches Museum’s collections.
THE CURATORS Wes Anderson was born in Houston, Texas. His films include
The Royal Tenenbaums, Fantastic Mr. Fox and The Grand
Budapest Hotel. His latest film, Isle of Dogs, came out in 2018.
Juman Malouf was born in Beirut, Lebanon and grew up in
London. She has designed and illustrated for theatre, film, and
fashion in the US and Europe. Her first novel, The Trilogy of
Two, was published in 2015.WES ANDERSON While Juman Malouf and I can take no credit for the
conception and creation of any of the works of art included in
this exhibition, we do harbor the humble aspiration that the
unconventional groupings and arrangement of the works on
display may influence the study of art and antiquity in minor,
even trivial, but nevertheless detectable ways for many future
generations to come.
Some of the links are more immediately apparent than others.
We situate the seventeenth century emerald vessel in a
confined space opposite the bright green costume from a 1978
production of Hedda Gabler in order to call attention to the
molecular similarities between hexagonal crystal and Shantung
silk; we place the painting of a seven-year-old falconer
(Emperor Charles V) next to the portrait of a four-year-old dog
owner (Emperor Ferdinand II) in order to emphasize the
evolution of natural gesso; a box for the storage of Spanish
powdered wigs goes next to a case for the storage of the crown
of the king of Italy because both were so clearly shaped and
formed by the introduction of the hinge. The list goes on.
True: one of the Kunsthistorisches Museum’s most senior
curators (educated, of course, at the University of Heidelberg)
at first failed to detect some of the, we thought, more blatant
connections; and, even after we pointed most of them out, still
questions their curatorial validity in, arguably, all instances.
But, should our experiment fail on these levels, we are, never-
theless, confident it will, at the very least, serve the purpose
of ruling out certain hypotheses, thereby advancing the methods
of art history through the scientific process of trial-and-
error. (In this case, mostly error.)
Our hope, however, is we will shed some light into corners that
had previously been too dim for comfortable viewing.FLOOR PLAN
