Re-Exhibiting
New practices for the performative spatialization of museographic culture
Abstract
One aspect contributing to nurturing the complex relationship between the ephemeral and concrete dimensions coalescing in the exhibition design phenomenology pertains to the re-exhibiting practice. The re-staging of seminal exhibitions is an emerging phenomenon based on the recovery or the reconstruction of historic installations that have played a significant role in the evolution of musical culture. The paper proposes a critical observation of the theme, evaluating the features and the possible role of this practice within contemporary museums.
