You are a museum curator at the Quai Branly in Paris designing an exhibition of Benin Bronzes. Describe how you plan to exhibit these pieces and what narratives or attributes you intend to feature.

Are you presenting the works as part of a shared human history or are they framed as the cultural heritage of the Benin people? How do you plan to reply to questions concerning repatriation or the colonial legacy of encyclopedic museums?

Finally, how is your approach to museum curation informed or shaped by our present political climate? What do you hope to resolve or rectify in the process?
