What kind of a museum does 21st-century urban society need? The Historisches Museum Frankfurt is answering this question by initiating \u201cCity Lab\u201d, an exhibition series that began on April 20 with the opening of \u201cEast End\/ East Beginning: A District in Transition.\u201d The exhibition is based on the experience and knowledge of the inhabitants, business owners, and children from the Ostend (East End) district of Frankfurt, who have articulated their version of the present. We asked Angela Jannelli about the kinds of surprises and problems confronted by the curators of the exhibition and how these altered the work of the museum. <\/p>\n
