Open-air Conservation of Ruins and the Concept of “Non-Dislocation”
2012
Most of the on-going debate is about “how” to protect archaeological ruins, whilst at the same time allowing the general public to enjoy them. Today it is clear how important it is, from the actual planning stages of excavations, to interact with experts from other disciplines, who are working on their own findings and offering them up for collective enjoyment. Whatever might be feasible for an indoor museum is not always feasible with an architectonic ruin, as regards both presenting objects with explicative apparatus that determines their significance, and exploring them in a new way when interpretations change or new ideologies are introduced. First of all, conserving excavations is the …
Architectures “on ruins” and ambiguous transparency: the glass in preservation and communication of archaeology
2008
Abstract The contemporary architecture is characterized by an even more marked transparency, as a result of a continuous experimentation all directed towards the search of the built “lightness”, that is towards the “dematerialization” of the architecture and the consequent loss of weight connected to the excess of form. It is in 1851 that a New Architectural Age springs because of the realization of the Crystal Palace, in London – that has addressed towards the experimentation of the glass as an architectural, structural element and of design. Today, part of this experimentation has been applied for some interventions of coverage, protection and communication in situ of the archaeological r…
La conservazione "open-air" delle rovine ed il principio della “non-dislocazione"
2009
Gran parte del dibattito contemporaneo verte sul “come” tutelare i resti dell’archeologia, consentendone nel contempo il pubblico godimento. Oggi si comprende quanto sia necessario, fin dalla pianificazione di una campagna di scavo, interagire con i professionisti di altre discipline, i quali si occupano delle loro scoperte per consegnarle al godimento della collettività. Su di una rovina architettonica non si può fare quello che si può fare in un museo indoor, sia per presentare degli oggetti con certi apparati esplicativi che ne determinano il senso, sia per esporli diversamente quando cambiano le interpretazioni o si impongono nuove ideologie. Conservare uno scavo, innanzitutto, non è la…

Presentazione” e “Conservazione” dei contesti antichi: alcuni casi di intervento sulle rovine
2008
L’esperienza interventista dei nostri giorni manifesta un marcato orientamento verso la valorizzazione ad ogni costo del patrimonio archeologico, a volte perpetuata quasi in assenza di una selezione delle reali possibilità di esecuzione o di una più sensata sostenibilità e durabilità dell’intervento. Non si può continuare a pensare di dovere offrire al pubblico tutto ed immediatamente, poiché, se mancano le risorse necessarie o un reale interesse da parte delle comunità, si corre il rischio di lasciare le rovine “riaffiorate” allo scoperto, alla mercé di una fruizione distratta o esposte a probabili azioni di saccheggio, oltre che di incessante degrado, ma anche di generare, nel tempo, una …
La forma simbolica del tumulus nella musealizzazione del paesaggio
2006
Oggi il significato di “patrimonio culturale” include tanto gli oggetti, quanto le tradizioni popolari. In questo modo la geografia di un territorio, l’architettura locale, gli usi e i costumi della vita quotidiana sono stati affiancati ai reperti “aulici” nel ruolo di testimonianza del passato. Tale testimonianza è saldamente relazionata al territorio ed al suo paesaggio. I siti di interesse archeologico, infatti, sono riconosciuti non soltanto per il loro valore intrinseco, ma anche per lo spazio che rappresentano. Oggi c’è una più grande attenzione verso l’ambiente naturale ed una maggiore consapevolezza che il “patrimonio archeologico” assume una connotazione sempre più legata al territ…
The interpretation of prehistoric visual expression in indoor museums
2011
Representing Prehistory in museums, with all the contradictions that the term “representation” may imply, is always very controversial from the interpretative point of view, implicating a series of different philosophical and scientific positions, both on Prehistory itself, and on the way of introducing it to the public, particularly today with the resurfacing of the need to dedicate some attention also to the social and the so-called “immaterial” contexts, to the myths, the rites, the cults, to the interpretation of life and nature, overcoming the obsolete concept of the museums exposing manufactured articles. In the long decontestualization process of the objects involving, unfortunately,…
LA PRESENTAZIONE DEI SITI GALLO-ROMANI. Conservare, Proteggere e Musealizzare
2012
Today’s interventionist experience is deeply oriented towards an all cost valorization of archaeological heritage, which is sometimes perpetuated disregarding the real possibilities of execution, or without a sensible sustainability of the interventions. One cannot keep thinking to have to offer the public everything straight away, because, if the necessary resources or the community interest happens to lack, there is the risk of leaving the “resurfaced” ruins in the open air, thus having them suffer probable looting or relentless degrading factors. The risk is also not to take on all due account the different types of intervention required by every single archaeological reality, thereby fl…

Hypothèse de Muséalisation en plein air pour le Quartier hellénistique-romain à Agrigente / Ipotesi di musealizzazione outdoor per il Quartiere ellen…
2014
The contribution presents the results of the activities carried out as a Expert in Museography for the APER project, which included the elaboration of a Musealisation hypothesis for the Domus IA-IB of the Hellenistic-Roman quarter located in Agrigento, i.e. the definition of intervention lines to be applied in an outdoor context to help the general public understand the archaeological site concerned to. The selected museographic strategies correspond to true forms of museal memorisation, aimed at knowing how to transmit the interpretation of an ancient context and its significance to a non-specialist public. In the conclusive phase, it has developed an executive project for two museographic…

La «communication» de l’art préhistorique: de la pratique didactique à la redécouverte de l’invisible
2009
Les sites préhistoriques peuvent devenir les instruments de la reconnaissance de l’identité d’une communauté par rapport à son territoire. Ce sont les spectateurs du lien existant entre facteurs visibles et invisibles à l’intérieur même des sites. En ce qui concerne les découvertes préhistoriques, on a conscience que le pouvoir de témoigner le plus fort est exprimé principalement par les formes primordiales d’art rupestre. Souvent s’imposent des solutions dans lesquelles la technique est « mise au service » de la préhistoire afin de la rendre accessible au public. Cette accessibilité se réalise à travers la création d’un pôle muséal. Avec les ateliers didactiques consacrés à l’« art rupestr…

Natura, territorio e sentimenti dell’uomo: una questione d’identità.Oradour-sur-Glane e il museo della memoria
2010
When a community has a suffering memory, within the memory-oblivion mechanisms characterizing every form of social stability, the interventions of musealization of a specific landscape can usefully contribute to the “trauma elaboration” process, being the only helpful expedients to turn the painful events that the community is not able to cope with into a “shared commemoration”. However, based on the experience from the Charles de Gaulle Memorial in Colombey, the museal interpretation can determine a touristic earning power which can often overwhelm the more expected “duty of memory”. Every new museal insertion, being a place fit for the building of the community mind, has in fact to fulfil…
The symbolic shape of the tumulus in the landscape musealisation
2007
The meaning of “cultural patrimony” includes today both the objects and the popular traditions. Territory, local architecture, daily life uses and customs have been placed side by side to “dignified” finds in the role of testimony of the past. Such testimony is firmly connected to the territory and its landscape. In fact, the sites of archaeological interest, but mostly the prehistoric sites, are recognized not only for their intrinsic value, but also for the space that they represent. Today, a greater attention is paid to natural environment and there is a greater awareness that the “archaeological patrimony” assumes a connotation more and more tied up to the territory that identifies it. …
Un’esperienza di musealizzazione nel Rabato di Agrigento. I musei, “ponti” fra culture
2007
Today museum offers a place of meeting, of reflection, of construction of the identity individualized in remote roots. Museum contributes to the construction of a “community mind”, departing from the origins of the site and prosecuting with the settlement’s anthropic ones. Therefore, musealized place becomes a “bridge” between pasts and presents cultures. Then, musealization acts must give space and communicative consistence not so much to the history, but to the memory. Only memory can constitute the real “bridge” between present and future.
Interiors and Exhibits: narrative in motion
2008
Nel 1786, Charles Wilson Peale apre il Natural History Museum di Filadelfia, da cui prende avvio una forma primordiale di exhibition design modernamente inteso, dove diorami, falsi paesaggi e ritratti contribuiscono a rivelare una precisa volontà di “mediatizzazione” del museo. Anche ai nostri giorni le istituzioni museali provano a risolvere le problematiche di “pubblicizzazione” e a fornire, anche al più inesperto visitatore, gli strumenti per individuare il racconto delle “cose” esposte. Peale, osserva Gary Kulik, nel concepire il suo museo come un luogo di intrattenimento per tutti piuttosto che come luogo di alta cultura, gioca un ruolo di vero antesignano della museografia moderna. At…
I parchi preistorici: esperienze internazionali di “presentazione” del paesaggio come riscoperta delle valenze immateriali
2007
The meaning of “cultural patrimony” includes today both the objects and the popular traditions, that is including both the material and immaterial values. Territory, local architecture, daily life uses and customs have been placed side by side to “dignified” finds – in the role of testimony of the past – with equal dignity. Such testimony is firmly connected to the territory and its landscape. Actually, sites of archaeological interest are recognized not only for their intrinsic value, but also for the space that they represent. Today, a greater attention is paid to natural environment and there is a greater awareness that the “archaeological heritage” assumes a connotation more and more ti…

2014
Intervention on archaeological sites requires a multicriteria approach, which does not lend itself to providing solutions of a general nature so much as solutions linked to the individual case at hand and to the comparison of the interventions involved in the creation of a museum-like context for them. Nevertheless, one should not lose sight of the general aspect of the problem and underestimate a series of considerations regarding what to conserve and why in favour of how to conserve, an aspect which has been extensively tested and which today offers a large range of appropriate solutions and techniques. It is a question of communication, solutions to which must be provided both through to…
Oradour-sur-Glane and the Memorial Museum: A Site of Reconciliation

La copertura dei siti archeologici: questioni di protezione e comunicazione delle rovine
2013
Le recenti istanze di presentazione dell’archeologia, hanno portato alla realizzazione di una casistica d’interventi di copertura e musealizzazione delle rovine assai varia, la quale costituisce una base sostanziale per lo sviluppo di nuove azioni conservative, tutte legittime e tutte praticabili a secondo dei vari episodi archeologici. Talvolta la musealizzazione di alcuni siti archeologici ha addirittura costituito una vera e propria “conservazione preventiva”, dalla quale sono derivate azioni ancor più mirate. Il programma d’interventi che consegue alla decisione di mettre en valeur qualsiasi resto dell’antichità non può che costituirsi dall’apporto degli strumenti forniti non soltanto d…

LA SOVRADDIZIONE CONSAPEVOLE NEI MUSEI DI ARCHEOLOGIA SUBACQUEA: IL CASO DI ARQUA
2010
If most of museological and museographic literature recounts the opportunity of re-evoking the context of usage, far more rarely it deals with the issue of re-evoking the context of retrieval. However, representing the sites of discovery of archaeological finds is a museographic act widely acknowledged in archaeological museums. One has to evaluate, though, if the reconstruction of the context of retrieval happens to confer an additional value to the exhibition, or else if it completes on a certain extent the cultural message that defines and holds together the various exhibits of an exhibition. the issue of context punctually appears every time underwater archaeological findings are exhibi…
