项目摘要
This trans-disciplinary project will establish the first dataset to focus on museum closure, analyse the distribution of museums that close, investigate flows of objects and knowledge in the wake of closure, and develop new concepts of the museum's life cycle. Museum closure is common. Our previous AHRC-funded research, 'Mapping Museums', showed that over 850 museums closed in the UK between 1960-2020, that is, 20% of the total number, with the majority closing after the millennium. The combined effects of austerity measures, the pandemic, and the cost of living crisis, make it likely that many more museums will close. Yet despite the frequency with which museums close, we know very little about where it occurs, if it predominates in places with high social deprivation, or in rural or urban areas. Nor do we know what happens to collections when museums close, or if closure is always to be regretted. Importantly, not all closures are equal. A local council may decide to amalgamate several museums to form one consolidated organisation, or replace an outdated institution with a landmark building. In such instances services may be improved. Alternatively, they may close the museum but continue to use the collection for outreach events or as a resource for offsite exhibitions, or they may have no option but to mothball artefacts, putting them into deep storage. Other museum collections may be broken up with some objects being returned to original donors, some being scrapped, and others sold, although we do not know which kinds of collections stay in public circulation and which disappear. For example, if artworks are relocated while rural history collections are scrapped. Museums are defined as permanent institutions that are intended to preserve collections for posterity. Their closure is usually understood in terms of failure, yet at present it is impossible to assess whether that is the case. In this project we investigate the actual circumstances of closure and re-examine the dominant narratives of loss. Our research will be of use to students and academics in museum and heritage studies and public history in that it will:-Present the first sustained analysis of closure within the museum sector: how it differs according to the museums' location, governance, size, subject matter, or accreditation status, and combinations thereof. -Challenge orthodoxies about the permanence of museums.-Document new forms of temporary, out-reach and pop up museums. -Develop ideas of the museums' life cycle -Provide large-scale, quantitative empirical evidence on museum closures as open data for re-use by future researchers. -Visualise complex data in ways that are accessible to humanities scholars. This research is also important for museum associations, policy-makers, funding bodies, consultants, and practitioners. Given the likelihood of rising closure rates, it is vital to understand the potential impact of closure and how it can be mitigated. Accordingly, this project will: -Provide up-to-date information on museum closure.-Identify differences in closure and in how collections are disposed of according to location and context thereby highlighting the (in)equitable distribution of resources. -Identify differences in collections dispersal according to subject matter thereby highlighting objects and associated histories that are at risk of being lost.-Improve understanding of the legacy of closure on recipient institutions.-Support strategic thinking with respect to museum closure.
这个跨学科项目将建立第一个专注于博物馆关闭的数据集,分析关闭的博物馆的分布,调查关闭后的物品和知识流动,并开发博物馆生命周期的新概念。博物馆关门是很常见的。我们之前的AHRC资助的研究,“地图博物馆”,显示在1960年至2020年期间,超过850个博物馆在英国关闭,即总数的20%,其中大多数在千禧年后关闭。紧缩措施、疫情和生活成本危机的综合影响,可能会有更多的博物馆关闭。然而,尽管博物馆关闭的频率很高,但我们对它发生在哪里知之甚少,如果它主要发生在社会贫困的地方,或者在农村或城市地区。我们也不知道当博物馆关闭时,藏品会发生什么,或者关闭是否总是令人遗憾。重要的是,并非所有闭包都是相等的。地方理事会可以决定将几个博物馆合并成一个统一的组织,或者用一个地标性建筑取代一个过时的机构。在这种情况下,服务可以得到改善。或者,他们可能会关闭博物馆,但继续使用收藏品进行宣传活动或作为场外展览的资源,或者他们可能别无选择,只能封存文物,将其深藏起来。其他博物馆的藏品可能会被分解,一些物品被归还给最初的捐赠者,一些被废弃,另一些被出售,尽管我们不知道哪些藏品留在公共流通中,哪些消失了。例如,如果艺术品被重新安置,而农村历史收藏品被废弃。博物馆被定义为旨在为后代保存收藏品的永久性机构。通常将其关闭理解为失败,但目前无法评估情况是否如此。在这个项目中,我们调查关闭的实际情况,并重新审视占主导地位的叙述损失。我们的研究将是有用的学生和学者在博物馆和遗产研究和公共历史,它将:-目前关闭博物馆部门内的第一个持续分析:它如何根据博物馆的位置,治理,规模,主题,或认证状态,以及它们的组合而有所不同。- 挑战关于博物馆永久性的正统观念。记录新形式的临时,外展和弹出博物馆。- 发展博物馆生命周期的概念-提供关于博物馆关闭的大规模定量经验证据,作为开放数据,供未来的研究人员重新使用。- 以人文学者可以访问的方式可视化复杂数据。这项研究对博物馆协会、政策制定者、资助机构、顾问和从业人员也很重要。鉴于关闭率可能上升,了解关闭的潜在影响以及如何减轻影响至关重要。因此,该项目将:-提供关于博物馆关闭的最新信息。查明根据地点和背景在关闭和如何处置收藏品方面的差异,从而突出资源的公平分配。- 根据主题确定收藏品分散的差异,从而突出显示有丢失风险的对象和相关历史。提高对受援机构关闭的遗产的理解。支持有关博物馆关闭的战略思考。
