Abstract(s)
The rapid and irreversible changes that occur in the contemporary world dictate the need to find the ways and methods to renovate traditional cultural institutions including the Museum. The authors of this article focus on the issues of the Museum's mission in the context of global challenges and socio-cultural transformations. As noted by the authors, two current trends coexist and complement the Museum vision: social inclusion and retaining the Museum status as a place alternative to the mundane everyday life, excluding it from the familiar environment into a paradoxical, but at the same time real space, where one can meet the past, which bears the image of a bygone time with its characteristic features. In conditions of an open information society, the ability of the Museum to preserve tangible and intangible heritage accumulated in its collections and, moreover, to produce innovative cultural products, events and meanings, moves to the forefront. The Museum needs an image of an open, vibrant structure, targeted equally at both the urban elite, and the mainstream audience including people with disabilities. Cultural and social formations become priority components of the Museum’s mission.
Rychlé a nezvratné změny v dnešním světě vyvolávají potřebu najít způsob a metody, jak inovovat tradiční kulturní instituce včetně muzeí. Autorky článku se zaměřují na otázku poslání muzea v kontextu globálních změn a společenskokulturní transformace. Podle nich se v současné době v oblasti vize pro muzea objevují dva souběžné trendy, které se navzájem doplňují: sociální inkluze a potřeba zachovat status muzea jako místa, které představuje alternativu každodenní reality, což jej přesunuje ze známého prostředí do paradoxního, ale zároveň reálného prostoru, kde se lze setkat s minulostí, které nese otisky dávných dob s jejich typickými rysy. V podmínkách otevřené informační společnosti vystupuje do popředí schopnost muzeí uchovat hmotné i nehmotné dědictví nashromážděné ve sbírkách, a navíc vytvářet inovativní kulturní produkty, události a významy. Muzeum by mělo být otevřenou, živou strukturou zaměřenou jak na kulturní elity, tak na běžné návštěvníky včetně zdravotně postižených. Utváření kultury a společnosti se stává hlavní prioritou v poslání muzea.
