博物馆是我们的文化景观中一个主导性特征,它形成了我们对历史与自身的最为基本的设想。当我们参观一件博物馆展品时,我们可能认为自己见到的是一些纯净和“权威”的东西——自它诞生以来未经触及。实际上,“权威性”是一个具有迷惑性的构建,对于博物馆来说,宣称“真实性”是对形成了他们机构的那些帝国主义和父权制结构的一种否定形式,因此,博物馆往往站在对“权威”他者化的偏离和否认角度上。顺着这个思路,我们往往会想到,那么博物馆在历史长河中的作用究竟为何呢?难道只是“反权威性”?或者还有其他的功用?宏观地来说,博物馆在整个人类历史记忆中的地位或者称为角色到底是怎样的呢?
The museum is a dominant feature of our cultural landscape and forms the most basic assumption of our history and ourselves. When we visit a museum exhibit, we may think that what we see is something pure and “authoritative” - untouched since it was born. In fact, “authority ” is a deceptive construct, and for museums to claim that “authenticity ” is a form of negation of those imperialist and patriarchal structures that form their institutions. Therefore, Museums often stand in the direction of deviations and denials of “authority” and vice versa. Along this line of thinking, we often think of it, then what is the role of museums in the long history? Is it only “anti-authoritarian”? Or is there any other function? Macroscopically, What is the status or role in the end?
