The Soul of the Museum

This museum ought to be considered as a sort of sanctuary of contemporary Italian society. (Federico Zeri)

Is it really a museum though? I would certainly hope it’s not, in the traditional sense. I already know in my mind what it should be and how it should be perceived. (Ettore Guatelli)

Many think of a museum as something that only exhibits beautiful objects, as if we tried to represent humanity with a “gallery” of only beautiful, chosen people. (Ettore Guatelli)
