专题介绍:面向未来的博物馆

编者按:

        公共事件是指造成或者可能造成重大人员伤亡、财产损失、生态环境破坏和严重社会危害,危及公共安全的紧急事件,包括自然灾害、事故灾难、公共卫生事件和社会安全事件。

        作为公共文化机构的博物馆,对公共事件的关注由来已久。或收藏、展示公共事件见证物,或推出公共事件专题展览,或建立公共事件纪念馆。但最初博物馆往往在事后才对公共事件作出反应,许多重要见证物不能及时入藏而灭失,颇令人遗憾。随着博物馆职能的不断扩大、博物馆事业的快速发展,博物馆已走出馆舍,既关照过去,也注意现实和未来;既以物为中心,也聚焦于人;既是历史证据的收集、保管和解释者,也积极成为历史的参与者。在这一背景下,博物馆对公共事件的关注,应该更为全面与深入,应该投入更多力量探讨博物馆应对公共事件的策略。

        2019年年底以来,新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情暴发,并成为全国乃至全球公共卫生事件。以此为契机,本刊邀约诸多国内文博机构管理者、学者对博物馆与公共事件主题进行多方位多层次探讨,以期引起博物馆界对公共事件的进一步思考与探索。诚然,博物馆并非应对公共事件的主导者,但绝对不是旁观者,积极参与是博物馆不可推卸的责任。

        公共事件引起的焦虑难以平息,公共事件造成的创伤不可磨灭,博物馆如何以人为中心,进行正确的引导,发挥文化抚慰作用尤其值得重视。

        守望相助,共克时艰。在此,本刊向积极应对公共事件的博物馆人致以崇高的敬意。

内容提要:目前在全世界蔓延的“新型冠状病毒导致的疾病”(COVID-19)危机注定将成为整个人类社会一段永远难忘的集体记忆,一段关于灾难与痛苦、英勇与坚韧、团结与牺牲、反思与进步的记忆。储存、研究、阐释、呈现和共享历史(包括当代历史)记忆,是博物馆最具专业特征的社会使命。在专业敏感和社会责任的双重驱动下,我国一批博物馆启动了围绕COVID-19的记忆工程。像COVID-19这样一个史无前例的、复杂的灾难主题,往往需要博物馆做更深入的理念思辨和更系统的行动战略。分析发现,COVID-19相关见证(物质和非物质的)的筛选入藏和信息储存,除一般文物分类学意义的标准外具有一定的“非传统”性,需要比以往更多关注特定时空维度下的那些社会元素;博物馆的相关研究和阐释将是“过程”而非一蹴而就,要通过信息属性分类和多学科互动,逐步还原出多维、联系而非线性、孤立的开放式的集体记忆;与艺术和文化题材相比,COVID-19这种灾难记忆的呈现和共享,应兼顾“望远镜”与“显微镜”即宏大叙事与凡人情怀的双重视角,应非常审慎地处理社会心理敏感和博物馆专业伦理问题。

关键词:为了明天收藏今天 博物馆阐释 集体记忆 灾难题材展示 COVID-19

Abstract: The “new corona-virus caused disease” ( COVID-19 ) crisis currently spreading around the world is destined to become an unforgettable collective memory for the entire human society, a memory of disaster and suffering, heroism and tenacity, solidarity and sacrifice, reflection and progress. Collection, research, interpretation, presentation and sharing of memories of history (including contemporary history) are determined as the most professionally featured social mission of the museum. Having been driven by professional sensitivity and social responsibility, a number of museums in China have launched a series of memory projects surrounding COVID-19 through out the country. Dealing with an unprecedented and complex theme of disaster like COVID-19 often requires museums to make deeper conceptual enquire and develop more systematic action strategies. Analysis found that COVID-19 related evidence (both tangible and intangible) screening for collection and data preservation has a certain “non-traditional” feature in addition to the general criteria for the taxonomic significance of cultural objects. There is a need to pay more attention to social elements in specific space and time dimensions than before. Related research and interpretation in museums should be recognized as “processes” rather than overnight. Through the data attribute categorization and interdisciplinary interaction, museums may gradually restore an open collective memory which is multidimensional and connected rather than isolated and linear. Compared with artistic and cultural themes, museum’s presentation and sharing of memory of COVID-19 as a disaster should be taken into account the dual perspective of “telescope” and “microscope”, grand narratives and expressions of ordinary people. Meanwhile, museums should be very careful in dealing with the issues of social psychological sensitivity and code of ethics of museum profession when presentations are going to be realized.

Key Words: Collecting today for tomorrow; museum interpretation; collective memory; exhibition concerning disasters; COVID-19

内容提要:作为公共文化机构,博物馆通过搜集、保存、研究人类在生存发展过程中留存的遗物,形成有逻辑的知识体系,再以展览形式将这些知识具象化,传递给社会。近年来,随着博物馆社会化的不断增强,博物馆偏重于展示民族国家辉煌过去的单一知识服务模式开始引起反思。尤其在面临社会公共事件时,博物馆应该充分利用公共收藏,为社会提供更及时更多元的公共服务,从而更好地履行生产、传递人类知识,沟通人类过去、现在和未来的职责。

关键词:博物馆  知识生产  公共知识  社会责任

Abstract: As the public cultural institution, Museums fulfill social responsibilities by collecting, preserving, researching human objects, making a logical system of knowledge, and then visualizing in the form of exhibitions to pass it on to the society. On recent years, with the socialization enhancing of museums, the single knowledge service mode of museum, which lays particular stress on displaying the glorious past of the nation-state, has aroused people’s reflection. Especially in the face of social public events, museums should make full use of public collections to provide the society with more diversified and timely public services, so as to fulfill the social responsibility of public knowledge making, and transmission, as well as communicating human’s past, present and future better.

Key Words: Museum; making-knowledge; public knowledge; social responsibility
