The museum survives us all.

The Taipei Biennial, with its attentiveness to systemically re-forming the categorically 'natural' within the museological, names the museum as the metonym and metaphor of natural systems, but also reformulates and redresses what these systems could be. In the Biennial's language of 'reciprocal dependency', if the museum is an ecosystem, then perhaps nature post-nature is already a museum. This review seeks to examine these formulations, especially as strands of post-disaster survivalism, with the biennale's strategies to 'keep alive' humans and their art, and to 'preserve longevity'.
