Teaching description

Prerequisiti Basic general knowledge of the main concepts of History of Art of the last two centuries.

The course aims to offer a general panorama of the contemporary debate, at international level, on the current de-hierarchisation of the museum as a hegemonic institution deeply rooted in Western culture, history and ideology. Particular emphasis is put on offering the students the opportunity to acquire the reference terms of a crucial turning point which has now been operative in museographic methodology for some decaded, all over the world and by now even in Italy, according to the assumption that the work of art must be considered in a mainly anthropological key. Nevertheless the course also aims to provide some general knowledge of the history of art collecting intended to demonstrate how in the Western tradition the "artistic" status was never exlcusive.
