Could you imagine your own home as a gallery? How do collectors reconcile the private realm of the ‘house’ with the public realm of the ‘museum’ when choosing to open their doors to others?

Jarrod Haberfield, a practicing architect and PhD candidate researching the emergence of the housemuseum typology, speaks with collectors and housemuseum-holders about the range of considerations they take when displaying artworks for viewing by the public.

Moderator:
Jarrod Haberfield (PhD Candidate, University of Melbourne)

Speakers:
Charles Justin AM Director, Justin Art House Museum (JAHM)
Alison Kubler Editor-in-Chief of VAULT Art Magazine, Art Advisor at Renshaw & Kubler
Tali Roth Founder, Studio Tali Roth
