O museu líquido: uma proposta de reflexão sobre a fluidez museológica nos tempos atuais: estudo de caso dos museus tutelados pela direção Regional da Cultura da Região Autónoma da Madeira
| Summary: | Having as a theoretical allowance the concept of liquid museum presented by Olga Van Oost (2012), Fiona Cameron (2015) and Maria Marras et al (2016), a museum paradigm that seeks to follow the liquid modernity postulated by Zygmunt Bauman, we elaborated, in the present research, a proposal of reflection about the museological fluidity in the present times. In this sense, the study presented here has as a general objective to analyze, in a first moment, and to increase, in a second, the museological liquidity present in some of the constituent forms of the museums supervised by the executive power of the Autonomous Region of Madeira, through its Regional Directorate for Culture. It is planned to theorize about the way these museological institutions seek, through their practices, techniques, theoretical and ideological foundations, to relate to the complexities and demands of the social context of liquid modernity, in order to develop their respective engagement with the most varied and possible public. Nevertheless, an observation is made about two designs capable of influencing the efficient liquid operationalization of any museum institution: the governmental attitude - where a necessary horizontal relationship between the supervisory bodies and the museums is defended, linking the principle of management autonomy; and organizational behavior - where the concept of a museum network is highlighted and the resulting flexibility, cooperation, sharing and articulation of common goals. Latu sensu, the research developed seeks to reflect on the idea that, given the need to adapt to the rapid and constant transformations of current times, museums should expose a critical, current and constructive view of the concept and practice of museums, exploring and relating some of their problems with broader issues emerging today: social, political, economic and cultural issues. |
