TÃtulo : Museum Architecture : A new biography Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Macleod, Suzanne Editorial: Taylor & Francis Group Fecha de publicación: 2013 Número de páginas: 1 online resource (xii, 237 pages) : Il.: illustration, plans ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-0-203-52783-2 Palabras clave: Museum architecture Social aspects. Clasificación: 727/.6 Resumen: "Recent decades have witnessed an explosion of museum building around the world and the subsequent development of a body of research to understand the myriad issues. Museum Architecture: A New Biography focuses on the stories we tell of museum buildings in order to explore the nature of museum architecture and the problems of architectural history when applied to the museum and gallery. Starting from a detailed discussion of the key issues in contemporary museum design, the book explores the role of architectural history in the prioritization of specific stories of museum building and museum architects and the exclusion of other actors from the history of museum making. These omissions have contemporary relevance and impact directly on the ways in which the physical structures of museums are shaped. Theoretically, the book places a particular emphasis on the work of Henri Lefebvre in order to establish an understanding of buildings as social relations; the outcome of complex human interactions and relationships.The book utilizes a micro history, an in-depth case study of the "National Gallery of the North", the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, to expose the myriad ways in which museum architecture is made. Coupled with this detailed exploration is an emphasis on contemporary museum design which utilises the understanding of the social realities of museum making developed above to explore ideas for a socially sustainable museum architecture fit for the 21st century"-- Nota de contenido: bla

TÃtulo : Museum Making : Narratives, architectures, exhibitions Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Macleod, Suzanne ; Hourston Hanks, Laura ; Hale, Jonathan Editorial: Taylor & Francis Group Fecha de publicación: 2012 Número de páginas: 1 online resource (xxiii, 309 pages) : Il.: illustrations (some color), maps ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-136-44575-0 Palabras clave: Museum architecture. Communication in architecture. Clasificación: 069 Resumen: Over recent decades, many museums, galleries and historic sites around the world have enjoyed an unprecedented level of large-scale investment in their capital infrastructure, in building refurbishments and new gallery displays. This period has also seen the creation of countless new purpose-built museums and galleries, suggesting a fundamental re-evaluation of the processes of designing and shaping of museums. Museum Making: Narratives, Architectures, Exhibitions examines this re-making by exploring the inherently spatial character of narrative in the museum and its potential to connect on the deepest levels with human perception and imagination. Through this uniting theme, the chapters explore the power of narratives as structured experiences unfolding in space and time as well as the use of theatre, film and other technologies of storytelling by contemporary museum makers to generate meaningful and, it is argued here, highly effective and affective museum spaces. Contributions by an internationally diverse group of museum and heritage professionals, exhibition designers, architects and artists with academics from a range of disciplines including museum studies, theatre studies, architecture, design and history cut across traditional boundaries including the historical and the contemporary and together explore the various roles and functions of narrative as a mechanism for the creation of engaging and meaningful interpretive environments.
