Abstract

Designing museum exhibitions is a hot topic for architects, designers, museologists, and scholars since museography represents a powerful tool for valorizing collections, promoting education, communicating cultural values, and ensuring suitable conservation conditions for the exhibited specimens. This is especially true for museums displaying authentic objects which are conveyors of scientific, cultural, social, and ethical values. In particular, natural history and science museums often compete with the leisure industry, and thus their museographic solutions have to meet more and more demanding requirements to increase visitor engagement. This paper describes the museographic concepts beneath the Italian Museum of Planetary Sciences in Prato (Italy, hereinafter MISP). MISP is the only museum in Italy entirely devoted to illustrating planetary sciences and displays important collections of extraterrestrial materials (meteorites, tektites, and impactites). The exhibition layout, characterized by a continuous wall belt design, recalls the outer space while providing non-invasive visual means to improve visitors’ emotional engagement with the displayed specimens. MISP museographic strategies also outline the importance of spatial designs and transpositions focusing on the illustration of the exhibited collections, thus going against some current museographic practices emphasizing, for example, the use of augmented reality and digital stimuli.

看着我普拉托意大利行星科学博物馆地下的博物馆项目(意大利)
博物馆展览设计是建筑师、设计师、博物馆学家和学者们的热门话题,因为博物馆学是一种强大的工具,可用于珍视藏品、促进教育、传播文化价值以及确保为展出标本提供适当的保护条件。对于展示真实物品的博物馆来说尤其如此,因为真实物品是科学、文化、社会和伦理价值的传递者。特别是,自然历史博物馆和科学博物馆经常与休闲产业竞争,因此它们的博物馆解决方案必须满足越来越高的要求,以提高游客的参与度。本文介绍了意大利普拉托行星科学博物馆(以下简称 MISP)的博物馆学理念。MISP 是意大利唯一一家完全致力于展示行星科学的博物馆,并展出重要的地外材料(陨石、陨石和撞击石)藏品。展览布局的特点是采用连续墙带设计,让人联想到外太空,同时提供非侵入式视觉手段,提高参观者对所展示标本的情感参与度。MISP 博物馆学战略还概述了空间设计和转场的重要性,重点是展示藏品的图解,从而与当前强调使用增强现实和数字刺激等博物馆学实践背道而驰。
