Despite the irregular working conditions during the move, the collection of the Museum of Ethnography has continued to grow. In addition to the acquisition of two major private collections, the institution has also collected gifts, fieldwork, African expedition collections and other archives and artefacts. The Harvest of closure exhibition opened on 14 April, presents a selection of the major acquisitions of the five years of closure, with nearly 300 objects on display.
The institution was closed to the public for four and a half years between 2018 and 2022, when it moved to its new premises. During this period, the museum did not intend to expand its holdings or its archives, as it planned to concentrate on the safe relocation of its collection of immense value. Despite the unconventional working conditions, the museum's collection continued to grow during this period - a selection of important acquisitions is on display in the Harvest of closure exhibition.
