Research and Training for the Palace Museum of Tomorrow

Descripción del proyecto

La importancia de los museos palacio para la industria del patrimonio cultural

Los museos palacio suponen un sector en auge de la industria del patrimonio. Atraen turistas, generan beneficios y sirven de instrumento de intercambio cultural. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos PALAMUSTO estudia el intercambio cultural de los palacios ayer, hoy y en el futuro. Su trabajo generará conocimientos nuevos sobre la vida en la corte. Formará a investigadores noveles mediante investigaciones individuales sobre el terreno a fin de dar con métodos nuevos de conservación y gestión para los museos palacio. Estos investigadores aprenderán a explicar la relevancia social palaciega a todos aquellos relacionados con este patrimonio y determinarán la importancia de la arquitectura, la ubicación y los objetos en los asuntos de palacio. El proyecto contará con el apoyo de un sistema de información geográfica (SIG).

Objetivo

PALAMUSTO ETN, a network of leading European universities, heritage institutions and palace-museums, investigates the court residence or palace as a phenomenon of cultural exchange, not only in the past but also today and in the future. A new history of the palace is indeed needed in order to define its relevance for present-day Europe.

The palace’s status as heritage, as prime touristic attraction and as part of the experience economy offers a continuous challenge to society in a global context, considering that the heritage industry is gradually replacing many traditional sectors of European economy. PALAMUSTO ETN offers multidisciplinary, trans-sectoral training to early career researchers who will become the first exponents of a new professional profile capable of meeting these challenges. Training through individual research on the palace, shored up by specific methodology modules, will run parallel with teaching the palace as heritage in all its complexity. PALAMUSTO researchers will learn to conserve, curate and manage the palace-museum on-site, interacting with professionals. They will learn to explain the palace’s societal relevance to all stakeholders and audiences engaged with this heritage.

Together the PALAMUSTO researchers will establish a new history of the palace, based on the insight they gain in the material culture and architecture of the courts which constitute the case-studies of their doctoral research. They will map the patterns of diffusion of specified movable objects with representational value in the world of European courts, paying special attention to location and display; some of these define the palace as functional machine. In parallel, they will map specific representational architectural spaces of the palace, their functioning, placing, and routing to/from. The overlay of patterns of diffusion, realized through digital means based on a GIS platform, is expected to generate a new understanding of the court residence.
