A matter of perspectives: looking at the landscape

this path aims to propose a learning experience that combines the presentation of the collections at the museum with the direct re-contextualization through a physical and cultural immersion in the territory of origin of the find, by expanding the perspective on the territorial complex - made of nature and culture - of which it was part. It is a kind of process of "wide-angle focusing", from micro to macro, from the museum specimen to the territory in which it was inserted and of which he was part of. Our objects are at the same time the product of the community settled there, of which evolution today we can understand and interpret the effects.

As a consequence, it is most appropriate to help the visitor to adopt a “landscape approach”, or more precisely, a “landscaped thought”, to facilitate and guide the interpretation of the territory and its components, aimed at considering the landscape as an image of the territory, a mental construction (therefore culturally generated) that lies between the real and concepts, giving more awarness of the abstract formulations that lies behind our knowledge.
