Summary/Abstract: There is a sentence, a statement that has networked the lives of many museum-sympathizers, and even of museum-lay people over the past year and a half. Obviously, this sentence implies a concept and a paradigm, but most importantly, it has generated and shaped everyday practices and routines, collecting, reading, and consumer habits, mindsets, and questions. The sentence reads: “A tiger in a museum is a tiger in a museum and not a tiger” (Kenneth Hudson). Based on this, the NOT THE TIGER/ museum collection campaign was born, curated by ethnographer Zsófia Frazon. The study revolves around this museum experiment with the curator’s intervening, inner perspectives.
