In 2019 we published the first volume of The Museum Is Not Enough, which we conceived as a platform to reflect on and discuss some of the beliefs and concerns that define the CCAs curatorial activitywhy and how it worksand, by extension, the role of cultural institutions vis--vis society. Claiming that the museum is not enough meant asking what a museum should be and do.

In this second volume, the discussion focuses on how the institution works out and on these questions by rethinking the tools used to conceive its programs and build its relationship with different communities and audiences. Underlying this reflection is the conviction that the museums activity cant be constructed from a fixed position. Here, the museum gets outside its physical walls, to explore on-site, to talk with people, to connect and activate collaborators, to design conditions for different forms of dialogue to happen on the ground.
