Museum Architecture as Spatial-Storytelling Mediating Artefacts

摘要：

　　This paper demonstrates the idea that museum architecture itself can make a significant contribution to various meanings communicated by artefacts.Drawn from one case-study of the interpretive frameworks of the Duveen Gallery in the British Museum, the paper investigates the extent to which museum architecture itself should be considered as a medium of spatial-storytelling, providing a rich sensory context for the process of mediation and interpretation.The paper concludes that museum architecture offers an engaging environment for communicating meanings through a careful organised embodied experience of an entire space, as well as passing on intangible culture through both tangible and intangible media.Moreover, museum architecture provides the artefacts a meaningful physical context in which they can speak.Culture, as an intangible medium,is recorded in the tangible media of artefacts, and buildings, while also being carried forward into an unknown future.
