MISE-EN SCENE
The standard structure of the museum is put into conversation
with community members of Rosario city – called mainly
by means flyers*, who lent daily objects over the course of
the show.
The Museum team and the object providers are an essential
part of this performance, and they are called necessary implicated
actors (NIA).
During the opening the museum room changes. For the first
few minutes there are only empty white displays and lighting.
Later, objects are received with a protocol document from
the museum’s Conservation Department, and then they
are placed under their exhibitions standards.
Those objects that have a more or less fixed meaning begin
to drift, as do the actors’ roles: this is true both
for the Conservation Department/team trained to operate with
"artworks", and for the "providers" whose
objects are treated by the Museum with the documentary protocol
and the status of "artwork", as well as for the
role of “authorship”.
The flyers were designed by the museum’s Communication
Department.
