Abstract

The Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium, reopened after an 11‐year renovation. In addition to completely cleaning the exterior façade of the neoclassical building, a new, modern wing was built inside former internal courtyards—a glossy, white cube with very high ceilings and a dramatic 100+ step flight of stairs. The historical part of the museum was also fully renovated to its original grandeur. The collection was reinstalled, and the overall interpretive strategy focused on making the art approachable to a multigenerational and multicultural visitorship: Eschewing chronology, paintings are grouped by themes, texts are user‐friendly and encourage interactive experiences, and special activities are available for children. Short videos are also available in some galleries that provide context, explain specific art techniques, or contain games. A wide range of experiences is available to museum users, somewhat consistent with an approach proposed by the Smithsonian Institution's IPOP framework. The reviewer found the reinstallation and related user experiences a relevant, people‐oriented model for 21st century art museums.

安特卫普皇家美术馆
比利时安特卫普皇家美术馆经过 11 年的翻修后重新开放。除了对新古典主义建筑的外立面进行彻底清洗外,还在以前的内部庭院中新建了一个现代化的侧翼--一个光洁的白色立方体,天花板非常高,还有一个引人注目的 100 多级楼梯。博物馆的历史部分也进行了全面翻修,恢复了原来的宏伟气势。藏品被重新安装,整体讲解策略的重点是让多代、多文化的参观者都能欣赏到艺术作品:摒弃了按时间顺序排列的做法,绘画作品按主题分组,文字说明方便易懂,鼓励互动体验,并为儿童提供特别活动。一些展厅还提供视频短片,介绍背景、解释特定的艺术技巧或包含游戏。博物馆用户可以获得广泛的体验,这与史密森学会 IPOP 框架提出的方法有些一致。审查员认为,重新安装和相关的用户体验是 21 世纪艺术博物馆以人为本的相关模式。
