MERGENCE: MUSEUM AND THEMES

Last two post are about themes and some important architectural quality of museums. In this post, there are some opinions about program of the museum in the light of discussions about museum. There are some criterias for creating strong connection between theme and space which are examined in the light of gathering space, organization, function and arrangement.

1.Citizenship and Cosmopolitanism

This is one of the most critical issue to debate for especially Turkey. Accepting someone as citizenship is still valid topic for Turkey. If museum's one aim is providing social cohesion, gathering space is essential place for this theme. Every presentation should around these gathering space and when visitors reach this place, they should acquire different experimentation. For arrangement of pieces, there should be chronological order rather than hierarchical order because hierarchical presentation create different problems about content. Function of space is not contain obligatory experiment and plan will open to exploration and give freedom to visitors. Primary aim of presentations are not inform people. So this situation gives us an free organization scheme.

2.War and Immigration

This theme include details and lots of informations in itself. So main purpose should relate with transferring information to visitors. This situation gives us a boring but ordered organization of spaces. Connection between spaces are not create random in there. Circulation serve informational aim and experimentation is not directed by visitors; it is totally prepared by architecture of museum. Pieces also arrange in the light of their hierarchical system. If this theme include gathering space, it should be care informational meetings not social. So, museum will have auditorium part in this theme.
