Sui materiali culturalmente sensibili nei musei demoetnoantropologici: problematiche di tutela, valorizzazione e comunicazione
Abstract
Photographic objects in ethnological and anthropological collections are systematically called into question in current debates on the nature and functions of the museum vis à vis the legacy of colonialism and imperialism, systemic racism, and the persistence of Eurocentric and patriarcal ideologies. The aim of this dossier is to offer a first opportunity to confront these issues by sharing the experiences of three of the most important institutions of this kind in Italy and their daily work on the conservation, valorization, and communication of the cultural heritage.
