Résumé :

The Prado-Recoletos axis is the main historical boulevard in Madrid, which contains the most important concentration of art museums in all of Spain: the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, the Museo Nacional del Prado and the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza. In the last years, they have undergone extensive renovation. The different renovation projects can be used to examine how museum libraries today juggle the needs of their users while addressing the challenge of providing the services of a modern research library. The new State Museum Libraries Network (BIMUS) has been an important factor in this development.

Résumé :

The Royal Museum for Central Africa (RMCA) in Tervuren is often referred to as one of the last colonial museums in the world. This article provides an overview of the various steps taken in the fundamental transformation process and the plan for renovation of the museum with a view to making it a modern and dynamic Africa museum. For this institution, which is simultaneously a Museum, Research Institute, and Centre of Information Dissemination, a mere change of décor is not sufficient: a fundamental shift in vision, a series of risks, and especially a move towards dialogue and transparency have been part of the process, which has implications that extend far beyond the walls of the museum.

Résumé :

This paper summarizes a discussion of the role of disaster-related museums in passing down memories and lessons-learned to future generations through storytelling. The 135-minute discussion was held as a breakout session entitled “The Role of Museums in Telling Live Lessons” during the 2020 International Forum on Telling Live Lessons from Disasters in Kobe, Japan. On 25 January 2020, representatives of five museums (one still under construction) engaged in disaster storytelling activities. They discussed various issues, including how to engage local communities and improve the relationship between storytelling and sustainable museum management. The participating museums were the Pacific Tsunami Museum in Hawaii, U.S.A., the Disaster Reduction and Human Renovation Institution (DRI) in Kobe, Japan, the Museum of the Mount Bandai Eruption in Fukushima, Japan, the International Tsunami Museum in Khaolak, Thailand, and the Ban Namkhem Memorial and Museum in Thailand (under construction). Museums are important venues that develop and continue disaster storytelling. All the participating museums digitally archive images, which creates the permanent inheritance of collective memory. All the museums focus on children. On the other hand, human and economic resources are required for museums to carry out their activities. The need for a museum network engaged in disaster storytelling is also discussed.

Résumé :

Purpose. The aim of the paper is to present the activities that the Glyptotheque CASA (Gliptoteka HAZU) undertook after the earthquakes in 2020 to preserve sculptural heritage in times of crisis. The intention is also to describe the experience of solidarity and cooperation with different partners and volunteers. The aim is also revaluation and presentation of plans for the overall renovation of the buildings and new displays. Approach/methodology. The paper shows the degree of damage to the buildings and the museum fund through a case study. The basic data on the damage and how evacuation was approached, the methodology of listing damage, and the organization of work in conditions of a pandemic and limited social contact are presented. Findings. The paper presents the activities in which professional staff of the Glyptotheque was involved, as well as volunteers – professional restorers, who kindly helped to make detailed documentation of the current condition of the damaged sculptures. The response to this earthquake showed that solidarity and care for heritage go together. Therefore, a complete renovation and reconstruction of the museum complex are being planned, and a new permanent exhibition. Value. The paper presents a valuable experience of a sculpture museum after the earthquake with the aim of raising awareness of endangered cultural heritage and the importance of its preventive protection, as well as the necessity of revaluation of museum activities in terms of protection and placement of museum objects. The paper describes the events and methods of working in crisis situations, such as the earthquake that hit the museum, and the pandemic that affected the overall work of the museum and professional staff. This unfortunate, unique experience was a generator of changes. Therefore, the creation of plans for the future renovation and the overall renovation of the museum complex, as well as plans for new modernized permanent exhibits, has begun.

Résumé :

Established in 1962, the Hong Kong Museum of Art was the first public museum in the city. It closed in August 2015 for a four-year renovation and spatial expansion of the facility, and reopened its doors in November 2019. The renovation happened precisely in the interstices of two important historical ruptures in recent Hong Kong history: the Umbrella Movement of 2014 and the ongoing Anti-China Extradition Movement that started in 2019. These movements are redefining the identity of the city and its people in contrast to the conventional Hong Kong cliché of transformation from fishing village to modern financial hub. Without addressing recent changes in cultural identity, the revamped museum rhetorically deploys obsolete curatorial narratives through exhibitions of Hong Kong art. This report critiques the representation of Hong Kongness in the revamped museum and argues that the latter is a soulless entity that overlooks the fact that both politics and art are now reconstructing local identities.

Résumé :

Built in 1934 as a cutter for the U.S. Coast Guard, the Potomac achieved its notoriety while serving for ten years as a yacht for the President of the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Through 50 years of changing technology, marine regulations, and fashion, this 165-ft (50.30 m) vessel has made its sometimes halting way, escaping the scrapping yard, and is today sitting in Oakland, California awaiting renovation. The goal of the owner, the Port of Oakland, is to use the Potomac as a floating museum carrying passengers on an excursion into the late 1930's. In the fall of 1984 the Association for the Preservation of the Presidential Yacht Potomac (APPYP), managers of the Potomac, contracted with Nickum & Spaulding Associates, Inc. (N&SA) for engineering services. N&SA was to generate a shipyard bid package that would produce a restored vessel acceptable to the U.S. Coast Guard as a Subchapter H passenger ship. This paper reviews the vessel's history and examines some of the design compromises necessary to make the Potomac as historically accurate as possible while meeting the current marine regulations and museum function requirements.

Résumé :

Abstract In April 2017, a group of mannequins was removed during renovation of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. The new exhibit instead focuses on objects left by the dead (ihin) as well as survivor testimonies, representing the latest change in a seventy-year controversy regarding museal representations of the devastation wrought by the atomic bomb. Controversies paralleled debates over Holocaust memorialization and the treatment of objects left by victims. The following examines the history of A-bomb objects in the Hiroshima museum, most importantly, the way relics have been discussed, exhibited, and debated. This evolution has elevated relics to the status of sacred objects, central to commemoration and memorialization.

Résumé :

The most important function of museums is to preserve the historical artifacts they contain in the name of humanity and to transfer them to future generations. For this reason, the interior design and display arrangement of the works in the understanding of museology remained in the second plan. Especially since the exhibition of stone works is a very sensitive subject, the safety of the works has always been at the forefront. With the increase in the number of museum visitors in recent years, renovation works in museums have also accelerated. Istanbul Archaeological Museum was renovated in 2012 and opened to visitors in 2022. The purpose of this study is to classify the diversity in the exhibition of stone works in the Istanbul Archaeological Museum, Sculpture Department Hall No. 12-20.The way in which the work is exhibited, the method of the exhibition and the typology of the exhibition are examined in three main headings. As a result of the study, 30 exhibition systems, 3 different forms, 4 different methods and 10 different typologies were identified. Following the classification created, analysis tables of the 30 existing exhibition systems were created and data analysis of the research was created. Keywords: Istanbul Archeology Museum, Interior exhibition systems

Résumé :

This article narrates the encounter of the author with Angelo Rudella, the head of the construction site at the Castelvecchio Museum, Verona, during the period of Carlo Scarpa’s renovation (1957–1964, 1965–1975). Rudella visited the site on July 11, 2019, to identify the original place of Scarpa’s site office — an office that Rudella shared with Scarpa for the duration of the 1960s – 70s renovation work, and until Scarpa’s death. As one of the last storytellers, to be able to offer a first source account of Scarpa’s design process at Castelvecchio, he operated a sited re‑reading of architectural details, which he analysed in their present context. The visit began by identifying Scarpa’s site office and then walking throughout the Castelvecchio Museum so that recollections emerged on site through an instance of peripatetic storytelling. Relying on a historical mnemonic technique — the art of memory and storytelling — sited memories resurfaced along the museum path, triggering key recollections associated with the construction site and archival photographs. A few selected stories and details are presented, evidencing the role of Rudella as an essential collaborator.

Résumé :

In this paper – given as a lecture at Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in the summer of 2003 – I survey the remarkable renaissance of museums – national and regional, public and private – in Britain in recent years, largely made possible with the financial support of the Heritage Lottery Fund. I look in detail at four non-national museum projects of particular interest: the Horniman Museum in South London, a remarkable and idiosyncratic collection of anthropological, natural history and musical material which has recently been re-housed and redisplayed; secondly, the nearby Dulwich Picture Gallery, famous for its 17th- and 18th-century Old Master paintings, a masterpiece of 19th-century architecture by Sir John Soane, which has been restored, and modern museum services provided. The third is the New Art Gallery, Walsall, where the Garman Ryan collection of early 20th-century painting and sculpture form the centrepiece of a new building with fine galleries and the forum is the Manchester Art Gallery, where the former City Art Gallery and the Athenaeum have been combined in a single building in which to display the city's rich art collections. The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, of which I am Director, is the most important museum of art and archaeology in England outside London and the greatest University Museum in the world. Its astonishingly rich collections are introduced and the transformational plan for the museum is described. In July 2005 the Heritage Lottery Fund announced a grant of £15 million and the renovation of the Museum is now underway.

Résumé :

Abstract The National Museum (NM) is preparing several temporary exhibitions in all of its buildings, along with preparing new permanent exhibitions in the New and Historical Buildings. All parts of the National Museum are incorporated in the preparation of new exhibitions, i.e. the Historical Museum, Natural History Museum, Czech Museum of Music, Náprstek Museum and the National Museum Library. In 2017, these exhibition projects are: Light and Life, Masaryk as a Phenomenon, and Indians. In 2018, the National Museum will present the Czech-Slovak / Slovak-Czech exhibition, which will reflect the 100th anniversary of the founding of Czechoslovakia, together with selected moments of Czechoslovakian history and the relationship of these two nations. 2019 could bring the opening of the grand Egyptology exposition Sun Kings and also new Natural history expositions. The remaining permanent expositions should be opened in 2020. The exhibitions in this period will likely recall some important anniversaries (1620, 1920). In future years, the renovation of the Czech Museum of Music and Náprstek Museum will take place.

Résumé :

Pharmacy museums are very specialized institutions, often located in the former rooms of old apothecary shops. One of the easiest ways of structuring the display is to recreate the interiors, with several variants: using original artifacts from that location (rarely preserved complete), using original artifacts from other locations, and using physical or virtual reconstructions (or various combinations). Though such atmospheric reconstructions are suggestive and create an immersive experience for visitors, they have the drawback of never reaching true historical accuracy. The History of Pharmacy Collection in Cluj-Napoca has been on display in the old Mauksch-Hintz pharmacy since 1954, with the addition of a recreated laboratory in the basement in 1972 and a complementary collection of medical equipment in 1997. A new display was designed in 2018–2024 following a major renovation of the monument. The present study discusses the choices and curating decisions behind the current Museum of Pharmacy exhibition in Cluj-Napoca, part of the National Museum of Transylvanian History.

Résumé :

With the continuous evolution of permitting regulations the Department of Botany at the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) in Washington D.C., invited an agent from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to discuss requirements for obtaining import permits for plant specimens. This meeting lead to the planning of restructuring existing procedures, workflows and modifications to the physical workspaces within our facilities. It also prompted the collection management staff to be well versed in the current regulations. APHIS requires individuals applying for a permit to submit a Standard Operational Procedure document (SOP) of their facilities. The APHIS agent will review the sterile entry procedures in the SOP and determine if the facility qualifies. Before we drafted our final SOP, we researched SOPs from other APHIS compliant herbaria. Most of the facilities at NMNH, constructed in 1910 and 1965, predates climate control and pest management best practice standards. After meeting with the APHIS agent, we reevaluated our packing and unpacking procedures. It was apparent that the frontline to combat pests should be as close to the shipping office entry point as possible. The ideal room is our drying room located next to the shipping office. Other room renovations where specimen processing occurs will be discussed in detail. PowerPoint is a major tool that helped with the visualization of the renovations. However, modifying and renovating spaces within the museum is not an easy feat because of the large scale coordinating efforts within the institution. Beyond the physical changes, there has been unexpected changes as to the role of collection staff in the permitting process. The APHIS requirements have created new challenges. Collection management staff are now sources of information about what collectors need to know before applying for a permit. Collection staff must also know about the various tools available for answering collectors’ questions, such as being well versed in the USDA Phytosanitary export database (PExD). Overall, new restrictions and guild lines create unexpected changes for the overall form and function of collection management.

Résumé :

The floor plan layout of museum exhibition spaces is the skeleton network of the museum, which determines the internal circulation and spatial form of the museum. This paper studies the method and practice of using artificial intelligence technology to assist in the space design of exhibition halls in urban cultural museums. First, it introduces the limitations of traditional space design methods for exhibition halls in urban cultural museums and the superiority and application prospects of the CGAN (conditional generative adversarial network) model in space design. Second, the principle and training process of the CGAN model are explained in detail, and the experimental results and analysis are given. By learning 100 floor plans of exhibition halls of urban culture museums, the CGAN model can generate a new floor plan design for an exhibition hall, which provides a new idea and innovative method for this design task. Finally, the limitations and future research directions of the CGAN model in the space design of urban cultural museum exhibition halls are discussed. The study shows that using the CGAN model to learn the floor plans of exhibition halls of urban cultural museums can effectively improve the innovation and practicability of space design and has the following advantages: (1) It can quickly generate a large number of exhibition hall floor plans, shorten the design cycle, and improve design efficiency. (2) The generated floor plan designs of the exhibition hall are diverse and personalized, meeting the design requirements of different scenarios and needs. (3) The method promotes the deep integration of space design and artificial intelligence technology and provides new possibilities and ideas for space design. These conclusions provide new ideas and methods for the space design of exhibition halls of urban cultural museums and provide a reference and inspiration for space design and intelligent applications in other fields, such as office space design, home decoration space design, landscape space design, and historical arcade and building renovation design.

Résumé :

The closing of the Historical Building of the National Museum due to renovation meant a significant interference with not only statistics of the visiting rates but also with the functioning of the institution and its communication with the public. The closure was and still is most of all a great challenge with regards to not only the preparation of new expositions, the form of which is occasionally discussed in the media, but also with regards to a new style of communication with the public and visitor care. This challenge concerns the Historical Building, which will be gradually opened during the years 2018–2022, but also the whole institution of the National Museum.

Résumé :

Sacred monuments are an important part of the landscape of the Lubuskie region. Kożuchów, a small town some 30 km from the provincial capital Zielona Góra, is a town with a long and rich history, whose area is full of buildings in need of care. One of the important elements in its landscape is the museum of gravestone sculpture - the Lapidarium. The sepulchral lapidarium in Kozuchow is one of the best-preserved sets of tomb sculpture in Poland. It was established in the 1970s on the site of a former Protestant cemetery, for the establishment of which the Evangelical community received permission in 1634. Restoration work is in progress to preserve and protect this regionally and nationally significant sacred monument. In this article, the authors present the renovation processes underway since 2018 and the stages planned for the coming years. The purpose of this article as to point out the remarkable regional importance of a unique example of a sacred monument, which is the Lapidarium in Kozuchow. The uniqueness of the gravestone sculptures with epitaphs contained therein, their exceptional level of craftsmanship and state of preservation predispose the Lapidarium to be saved from destruction and made available to the public.

Résumé :

The research was aimed at identifying changes in tourist traffic – religious tourism and museum tourism to the Museum of the Holy Father John Paul II Family Home in Wadowice in 1996–2019. The museum was opened in 1984 in the house where Karol Wojtyła, Pope John Paul II, was born in 1920. The thorough reconstruction between 2010 and 2014 resulted in the establishment of a museum with a modern multimedia narrative exhibition. In recent years, the museum has been visited by more than 200 thousand tourists a year, including 40 thousand foreigners from more than 100 countries worldwide. During the years 1996–2019 the number of international tourists rose more than twice. The greatest boom in the visits to the museum was noted in 2005 and was associated with the disease, death, funeral, and increasing worship of Pope John Paul II. Following decreased interest in visits to the museum during the period of 2010–2014, which was due to the museum renovation, a revival and increase in visits to the museum was observed again. Changes that were observed in the museum during the last twenty-five years were identified, among other things, thanks to field research involving observations and interviews with museum curators and staff. Analyses of tourist visits to the museum were based on detailed data provided by the museum managers. In the elaboration of the collected research results descriptive-analytical, dynamic-comparative and cartographic methods were used.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh, Scotland (UK) (formerly known as The Royal Museum), reopened in July 2011 after undergoing a massive renovation programme which resulted in the completion of 16 new exhibitions - among them several Natural Science galleries. A huge amethyst geode weighing 2300 kg was chosen as the iconic centrepiece for the gallery entitled Restless Earth. The amethyst was formed in Brazil, was mined and cut there to reveal its stunningly attractively crystals, and then crated and shipped in two parts to the National Museum of Scotland. Before installation it had numerous moves within the museum, was unpacked and required re-crating. Did the geode suffer any damage in transit? Were there problems caused by changing the orientation of the crates during lengthy storage periods? What challenges were faced in handling, storing and installing such a large, heavy, brittle object? Follow the Odyssey of the Amethyst Geode from its formation in the volcanic lavas of Brazil on its 10,000 km journey to the National Museum of Scotland.

Résumé :

The assessment of indoor environmental quality in historic buildings converted to museums is a significant tool in deep energy renovation processes, as it provides insights for the microclimatic conditions in the interiors of the building where vast numbers of visitors walk every year and where artifacts that are vulnerable to pollution are exhibited. In this work, aiming to contribute to the development of an energy retrofitting protocol applied in the Mediterranean region (HAPPEN MedZeb protocol) for museums hosted in historic buildings by providing useful data, an experimental campaign to evaluate the indoor environmental quality of a museum housed in a historic building located in Athens took place from February 2019 to April 2021 and was divided into two periods. The findings revealed high concentrations of volatile organic compounds as well as poor thermal comfort levels since the sensors recorded low acceptable percentages of T values within the limits from 7 to 33% for the entire experimental period. Based on the findings, recommendations for retrofitting interventions are made.

Résumé :

The Pantheon has been the heart of the National Museum ever since its foundation. It was intended to serve the role of honouring personalities of Czech history, science, and culture. The composition of the busts and statues of represented personalities changed over time due to the current political and social situation. It was necessary to define its future form in the context of the renovation. In 2017, discussions of its composition raised the interest of the media and the public. Several possibilities of the new Pantheon were considered, the National Museum finally chose to return to the state of 1948 (55 busts and statues). The Pantheon gallery will exhibit the changes of the compositions throughout time.

Résumé :

Friable natural products are often used in articles of personal adornment, and the perishable nature of these materials presents a unique challenge to museums. At the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, a collection of gowns worn by the First Ladies of the United States is a popular display of historical and sentimental import. Opened to the public on February 1, 1914, fifteen gowns were displayed as part of a “Period Costumes“ exhibit in the U.S. National Museum (now known as the Arts and Industries Building). Within just a few years, the exhibit was recognized as “one of the most interesting and popular in the Museum.” A First Ladies' Hall was created in the mid-1950s to exhibit the gown collection in period room settings. This design theme continued when the Hall moved to the Museum of American History and Technology (now the National Museum of American History) in 1964. The First Ladies' Hall was closed for renovation in 1987, allowing the curatorial staff to reassess the collection's use and conservators to perform long overdue examinations and treatments. Reinstallation of the exhibit is scheduled for spring 1992.The First Ladies' conservation project includes a history of each gown's use and exhibition as related to its physical condition and also includes stabilization treatments to meet the demands of future display. The current conservation project provided an unusual opportunity for extensive research into fabric deterioration of a popular and important collection. The goals of the research are twofold: first, to determine each object's state of preservation by studying the effectivenss of several analytical approaches with minimal destructive sampling and, second, to begin investigating the mechanisms involved in the degradation of silk, the material predominant in this collection.

Résumé :

The article is devoted to a review of theoretical and practical developments of excursion work in a limited exhibition space. Such situation may develop due to various conditions - starting from an accident (fire, utility accident) and ending with the limitation of the exhibition space due to renovation or reconstruction. For the aim of implementation of demonstration museum work in such conditions, the military-historical department of the Altai State Museum of Regional Studies has developed and implemented several methods that already exist in museological practice. First of all, it is a combination of lecture, multimedia and interactive activities, involving the active participation of organized groups of visitors. Organization of small temporary exhibitions dedicated to the milestone events of military history and their inclusion in the organized complex exposition activities are of great importance. The developed thematic methods and techniques can successfully help overcome temporary difficulties in the work of the museum.

Résumé :

The immediate postwar in Europe was characterised by collective amnesia concerning where Jews had lived prior to the Holocaust. By the 1970s and mid-1980s, there was a revival of interest in residential areas, synagogues and cemeteries connected with a Jewish past, right throughout Europe, including former communist countries in the 1990s. This resulted in much renovation and the attempt to provide new uses for such sites as museums and cultural centres.My paper focuses on the shift in emphasis from the need to preserve such sites as places of memory to an increasing concern with other issues. Such issues range from tourism promotion to the promotion of multiculturalism. This emphasis on preparing the younger generation for a future in a new multicultural state provides much of the motivation for central and local government to lend support to such initiatives, whether in Sweden, Germany or Italy, for instance.The paper focuses on the Jewish Museum in Bologna, where I conducted fieldwork between 1999 and 2002. The study illustrates the mix of policy objectives involved, such as heritage preservation, urban regeneration, cultural policy and educational objectives. The theoretical discussion seeks to combine Clifford's notion of the museum as a contact zone (Clifford, 1997) with Foucault's notions on discourse formation (Foucault, 1972). In the process, the analysis of the museum's political economy extends beyond the four walls of the museum into the adjoining space of the ghetto and the city.

Résumé :

Abstract The hygrothermal environment must be controlled in facilities like museums and galleries to suitably conserve the stored cultural artifacts. The present study proposes a humidity control technique for a museum storage room in Kyoto, Japan. This method requires limited energy and no large-scale equipment or major building renovation. The relative humidity of the room measured during the preliminary field survey exceeded the range for the conservation of metal artifacts (under 45%RH) throughout the year, and dehumidification was experimentally performed. The possible range of humidity control and the energy are quantitatively evaluated in the present study by simulating varied ways of operating a dehumidifier in combination with the improvement of the room’s property of being airtight. The results of the study indicated that simple building modifications and operational improvements could improve the storage environment. For instance, measures to ameliorate airtightness and sensing control along with the addition of small-scale equipment such as a home-use compressor-type dehumidifier can yield long-term low humidity suitable for the conservation of metal cultural artifacts. Such measures are also considered advantageous in terms of energy and labor consumption.

Résumé :

In December 2018, the Royal Museum for Central Africa (RMCA) in Tervuren, Belgium, reopened its doors after a renovation project that started nearly 20 years ago. Founded by the infamous King Leopold II, the RMCA contains cultural and natural history collections from Belgium's former colonies of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi, as well as other parts of Africa and beyond. Today, a new ‘Welcome pavilion’ leads the visitor through a monumental subterranean corridor to the historic building's basement and to an introduction to the history of the collections. The exhibition halls on the ground level have been refurbished, including the old colonial maps painted on the walls, while in the Crocodile Room, the original display has been retained as a reminder of the museum's own history. The largest halls now present displays linked to the scientific disciplines and themes within the museum's research remit (Figure 1): ‘Rituals and Ceremonies’ (anthropology), ‘Languages and Music’ (linguistics and ethnomusicology), ‘Unrivalled art’, ‘Natural History’ (biology), ‘Natural resources’ (biology, geology) and ‘Colonial History and Independence’ (history, political science). Eye-catching developments include: a room featuring some of the statues of a racist style and subject matter, which were formerly exhibited throughout the museum, and are now collected together in a kind of ‘graveyard’ (although this symbolic rejection is not properly explained); a new Afropea room focusing on diaspora history; a section on ‘Propaganda and representation’ (Imagery), a Rumba studio and a Taxolab. In place of racist statues, and occupying a central position in the Rotunda, is a new sculpture by Aimé Mpane named ‘New breath, or burgeoning Congo’. The accompanying label states that this piece “provides a firm answer” to the remaining allegorical colonial sculptures in the Rotunda by “looking at a prosperous future”. Alas, this answer is not as clear as is claimed and its message may be lost on many visitors.

Résumé :

Starting with 2018, the building previously housing the History of Pharmacy Collection (a privately owned building), known as the Pharmacy Museum, underwent massive restoration. The building, also known as the Hintz House, has traditionally been housing the exhibition of pharmaceutical objects – a collection owned by the National Museum of Transylvanian History. When the building was set to be restored, the collection, which then counted around 2400 inventory numbers, was packed and moved to the headquarters of the museum in the central storage facility, where it remained until 2023. The newly reorganized permanent exhibition at the Hintz House is set to be re‑opened in early 2024. The logistics of such an activity was complicated, as it was the first complex transfer of an extensive collection that the museum had organized in the last decades. The entire collection was assessed before moving, from a conservation point of view, to establish if any objects require specific handling, along with materials and equipment for their manipulation. The collection’s relocation was intended to last for a few years; during this time, most of the cultural objects were planned to remain packed and temporarily stored since the collection needed to be moved back to Hintz House once the renovation was completed. The museum staff did the packing under the strict supervision of conservators and restorers, and a moving company specializing in art handling was hired to transport the collection to the museum headquarters.

Résumé :

In the contemporary age, museums are dealing with unexpected challenges, related to the transformation of social structures, educative methods and cultural diffusion. The conversion of heritage buildings into exhibition halls and the renovation of existent exhibits involve a series of environmental risks and preservation issues. The study aims to demonstrate that conservation and human comfort are mutually compatible, when based on rational planning, interdisciplinary cooperation, and extensive knowledge of the features of buildings and collections. This study carries out an operative strategy for assessing and managing the environmental risks in museum buildings. To validate its suitability, it is applied to the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan (Italy), an old palace completely reshaped in the 20th century following the typical design concepts of the “Modern Movement of Architecture” (e.g., rational planning, use of innovative technologies and materials, profusion of natural light integrated with artificial lighting, etc.). Several solutions adopted in these years caused both heritage decay and human discomfort. In addition, the insertion of new functions required a complete modification of the original design project. For this reason, the proposed tool supports the environmental risk management connected with these transformations, also defining clear maintenance guidelines, and planning low-engineering and low-impact solutions to satisfy, in a practical way, the daily needs of conservators, heritage authorities and designers. Furthermore, technical skills and the awareness of museum staff has been improved.

Résumé :

Abstract The first major museum in Senegal, the Musée d'Art Africain de l'IFAN, has its origins in the 1936 creation of the Institut Français d'Afrique Noire (IFAN), a research institute designed to coordinate scientific and ethnographic research on West Africa. The museum's temporary expositions and the first permanent galleries, opened in 1961, presented West African objects organized by ethnic groups and accompanied by photographs, illustrating African daily life to Europeans following ethnographic standards set by the Musée de l'Homme. However, in 1971, administrators redisplayed the objects as examples of aesthetic expression divorced from context. Based on archival research conducted in Dakar, this article reviews this shift, situating it in the contentious postcolonial period and the ongoing debates over European neocolonialism in Senegal. I also argue that the IFAN museum's renovation should be read into debates around what it means to “decolonize the museum.”

Résumé :

To revitalize a historical building, the Taipei Camphor Factory, a major renovation is being coordinated by National Taiwan Museum. As part of the project, a seismic assessment was conducted to ensure the structural safety of the building. A three-dimensional finite-element analysis was carried out based on material data collected from the field, and it was found out that both the as-is building and the current retrofit plan would not provide adequate seismic capacity. To resolve this problem, an shear walls scheme was configured and seemed to yield a much better performance.
