For the Storyworld museum in Groningen, the Netherlands, I curated the exhibition Wakawaka! 40 Years of PAC-MAN. Running October 1st 2020 to January 10th 2021, the exhibition highlights Pac-Man's incredible design and impact in a combination of texts and objects. For this exhibition, Bandai Namco Entertainment was an official partner, aiding us with imagery and original Japanese Pac-Man objects, while a slew of US based collectors helped us find original Eighties' merchandise like rollerskates, t-shirts or lunch boxes. The National Video Game Museum in Zoetermeer borrowed us a couple of original Pac-Man arcades to top things off - it wouldn't be a Pac-Man exhibition if you could not play the game.
