New Institutionality and Other Antagonisms

This line of work tests models of construction of new forms of intermediation which can break away from the dichotomies which have traditionally constricted the operation of museum institutions, in an experiment of a political nature, since it is related to the re-definition of public society, of trhe contemporary conditions of cultural production and of the new urban rights and governance. The above concepts are related to a new statute and definition of the public, which has nothing to do with management and administration of State resources, but with examining the place and the notions of the commons, understood as that which articulates the formation of post-traditional and post-identity community and allows the redefinition of the role of the museum not as a public institution derived from Enlightened reformism, but as an institution of the commons.
