Question 1

In what ways does Bunch’s approach to museum exhibitions reflect evolving practices in public history and museum pedagogy?

Answer

Bunch relied primarily on traditional, text-based exhibitions with minimal engagement.

The museum’s approach centered on new technology, prioritizing it over meaningful content.

Bunch blended cinematic storytelling with rigorous scholarship, using technology and narrative flow to create immersive, emotionally engaging, and educationally rich exhibitions, reflecting a shift toward more dynamic, multi-faceted museum experiences.

Exhibitions were developed without a clear curatorial philosophy, lacking thematic cohesion.
