The ‘grave of the Court Pit’, A rediscovered Bronze Age tomb from Carchemish
2014
This paper examines the British Museum unpublished records related to an Early Bronze (EB) Age pithos burial uncovered a century ago in the Inner Town at Carchemish. The grave, cursorily cited and variously dated (Chalcolithic, EB or even LBA) in the final reports, was described in some detail by Hogarth and Thompson; a precise dating is, however, possible today thanks to the information of paramount importance given by T. E. Lawrence who identified and took a picture of the associated finds, which was recently rediscovered in the Carchemish Archives. The pithos can be now ascribed to the third quarter of the third millennium BC and helps to confirm the recent theory according to which the …
Métodos de documentación arqueológica aplicados en arqueología subacuática: el modelo fotogramétrico y el fotomosaico del pecio fenicio Mazarrón-2 (P…
2013
In 2007, ARQVA – National Museum of Underwater Archaeology carried out an archaeological project at the Phoenician shipwreck Mazarron-2 (Port of Mazarron, Murcia, Spain). The aims of the project were to check the state of preservation of the hull remains of the ship as well as the metal structure that protects the site. Moreover, the available archaeological data on the shipwreck were updated for the purpose of creating a new digital archive of the site. A real scale photogrammetrical 3D model of the interior of the hull of the ship was created using the program Photomodeler. In addition, a high-resolution photomosaic of the ship was produced since this had not been done in the past. This a…
Aproximación a un modelo de educación patrimonial horizontal a partir de tres casos
2017
La investigación en educación patrimonial ha permitido definir una serie de modelos que se desarrollan fundamentalmente en los ámbitos formal y no formal. Este trabajo se sitúa en al ámbito informal. El objeto es avanzar en el desarrollo de un modelo de educación patrimonial horizontal mediante redes de colaboración entre asociaciones, entidades e instituciones.Se han estudiado tres casos de acción sobre el patrimonio en tres contextos diferentes: rural, urbano y periurbano, seleccionados por su carácter informal y dialógico. Los objetivos son: reflexionar sobre la construcción de una educación patrimonial horizontal y definir métodos y estrategias, detectando dificultades e identificando f…
People comfort and artwork saving in museums: comparing indoor requisites
2009
In museums, environmental indoor conditions should, contemporaneously, preserve the exhibited works of art and ensure the comfort conditions for people. Unfortunately, human and artworks requirements are characterised by different values of the physical indoor parameters that, occasionally, could become conflicting. In the paper, these problems are addressed by means of a literature analysis, with a specific attention to thermal comfort conditions of people. The possibility of finding common ranges of values for both requisites is finally discussed. Some recent technical recommendations on the matter have also been considered for indicating some HVAC equipment and appliances to be adopted i…
Visually low-impacting methods for the measurement of parameters related to IAQ risk indicators in exhibition halls
2021
Microclimate for cultural heritage plays a fundamental role in the degradation process of artefacts exhibited in museums. Generally, the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) monitoring inside museums is based on conventional measurements of thermo-hygrometry parameters and longtime averaged measurements of atmospheric pollutants’ concentration. Unfortunately, all these approaches require electric supply and are usually characterized by a noticeable visual impact on the exhibition space, which clearly negatively affects the visitors’ experience. This paper intends to revisit and discuss a methodology (and its test application on field, to estimate the risk of damage of three artefacts displayed in an ol…
Mujeres maestras: pedagogías artísticas que integran escuelas y museos
2018
El proyecto Mujeres Maestras nació como un homenaje a las docentes. Se trata de una investigación educativa y artística, que pretende acercarse a la identidad de las mujeres que se dedican a la enseñanza. Utilizamos una metodología plural que combina los estudios de caso, las narrativas personales y la investigación basada en las artes. Nuestro trabajo es de corte cualitativo y de rango artístico. Desde sus inicios el proyecto ha buscado unir intereses entre los centros educativos y los espacios museísticos. De este modo, el carácter identitario de la propuesta nos acerca a las opiniones de las docentes, al mismo tiempo que reivindica una mayor interacción entre las dos tipologías de instit…
Arte contemporanea e sistema dell’arte. Una breve ricognizione
2018
Il contributo prende in esame i principali soggetti del sistema dell’arte, come artisti, curatori, critici, collezionisti, gallerie, musei e fiere, analizzando la nascita del fenomeno in riferimento a protagonisti e movimenti di epoca contemporanea e offrendo spunti di riflessione sulle dinamiche che regolano tale network complesso e affascinate. The contribution explores the main players of the art system (artists, curators, critics, collectors, galleries, museums and art fairs) examining this phenomenon in reference to contemporary artists and movements and offering a reflection on the dynamics which regulate this complex and fascinating network.
Virgin and Child sculptures in Buenos Aire’s public collections, 12th to 16th centuries
2016
During the last years, the building process and history of art collections became a prolific field of study in Argentina. However, research on medieval art in private and public collections in our country received little or no attention. But even if medieval art is considerably less represented than modern styles, there is an interesting amount of high quality medieval pieces exhibited at several museums in Argentina. The main purpose of this thesis is therefore to expand our knowledge of the medieval works of art in public Argentine collections, as related to their origin, dating, interpretation, technique and provenance. These pieces show great diversity of styles, provenance and techniqu…
Mujeres Maestras de Perú: investigar en educación artística transitando entornos formales e informales
2016
O projeto “Mulheres Professoras”elabora um discurso que parte da investigação baseada nas artes (IBA) para abordar as identidades das mulheres que se dedicam à docência. É uma homenagem ao grupo de professoras, um trabalho que pretende dar visibilidade a aspectos pessoais e profissionais que afetam as docentes. A metodologia é qualitativa com o estudo de 21 casos em cada país. Anteriormente a pesquisa já havia sido realizada em diferentes partes da América Latina. Em 2016 foi desenvolvido um trabalho de campo no Peru, coletando dados em várias escolas de Lima e gravando entrevistas com mulheres de diferentes níveis sociais, etários e situações particulares. Para 2017, está prevista a exposi…
Emotions and visitors’ satisfaction at a museum
2014
Purpose – This research aims to investigate whether emotions can be considered as a suitable variable to segment visitors at a museum. Furthermore, it seeks to analyse whether emotions influence visitor satisfaction and whether this depends on objective variables (such as age, gender and level of education) or not. Design/methodology/approach – A structured questionnaire was developed and data were collected at the National Museum of Archaeology “G.A. Sanna” in Sardinia (Italy) via 410 face-to-face interviews. Hierarchical and non-hierarchical cluster analyses and a series of chi-squared tests were run for the purpose of the study. Findings – Two segments were identified. The cluster with …
