Museum of the Stealing of Souls

The Museum of the Stealing of Souls has opened on July 19th 2008, hosted by manifesta7 in Trento, Italy. It is devoted to histories of the invention, appropriation and reconfiguration of the subject by photography.

The museum holds a fast growing collection organized in seven departments. The exhibits on show are reflecting alleged histories of soul-theft and surveillance, soullessness and alienation, immaterial production and precariousness -- loosely based on the question: Where can a soul live its life instead of saving it?
