In recent years, museums in several countries have guided their exhibitions and even broader and longer-lasting actions by so-called colonial debates. With the covid-19 pandemic, several of these processes were interrupted or rearticulated, since exhibitions, seminars and other actions were canceled or postponed. The seminar aims to discuss, under the impact of the pandemic and decolonial approaches, the relationship of museums with cities, as well as the influence of these institutions beyond the exhibition space, that is, in urban space and in the imaginary. Furthermore, as a counterpoint to the large traditional museums, issues related to community museums will be addressed.
