Storie di oggetti (e di sogni) perduti. Musei contemporanei per ritrovarsi

Abstract

What happens to humanity discarded by history? To the broken dreams (of love and life)?What to do with the objects that fill our life as "fragile ruins" of a dream lost forever? The article, looking at various contemporary projects of permanent museums and temporary exhibitions, intends to outline and lead a reflection on the radical paradigm change that intervenes in the exhibition processes and in the strategies of emotional engagement within contemporary museological policies. Conceived as places of encounter and relationship, museums are open to communities and individual stories. In particular, the emotion of lost guided the constitution of collections of objects, in a series of exhibition projects, including highly experimental ones, capable of activating a broad reflection on the meaning and role of cultural productions in the contemporary and contemporary world, on the importance of dialogue and inclusiveness in innovative design processes.
