Exhibition of film at EYE Filmmuseum, Amsterdam

At EYE Filmmuseum, the permanent exhibit is in a room where films are shown as a panorama surrounding the visitor with moving images from the collection of the museum, but this shot here transforms the moving images into a still image, a frozen moment.

The role of Touch in discussion (Museum Practice issue)

There is an interesting segment about "the role of touching" in the UK Museums Association's Museum Practice section section of the site.  In this months issue several articles analyze the notion of touch in the museums from different perspectives and interests, which brings up the discussion of the distance between the object and the visitor.  It also considers the difficulties or complicationso of working with handling collections.

Interesting topic whe it is a momento of redefinign many statements in times when engaging with your audience should be based on more than temporary exhibitions.

Using visible storage rooms, attracting visitors

Images from the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Design galleries.
Visible storage should be consider much more often a posibility for attracting visitors regularly.

If visitors are not only allowed but to encourage to open a drawer to inspect objects inside, with the less possible restrictions of distance or the glass in between you and object, it does turns the visit into a completely rewarding experience.

With this range of display a new connection can be bond with the interest of the visitor in observing the objects on show from different perspectives.

And this applies especially to museums with collections of modern crafts, design, etc.
