Abstract

The paper is part of a work-in-progress research on earthquake damage mitigation for museum collections. It is part of the research multidisciplinary project RESI-MUS – Resilience Museums developed by a group of researchers of DIDA – Department of Architecture of the University of Florence. Although a large acknowledgment of seismic risks, a shared culture of protecting museum collections is still missing. The contribution focuses on some museographical aspects, precisely on the design of a temporary exhibition. It illustrates the application of the RESIMUS approach to the temporary exhibition di Tutti i Colori. Racconti di ceramica a Montelupo, dalla “fabbrica di Firenze” all’industria e al design (on show in Montelupo Fiorentino – Italy from March to September of 2019). The paper illustrates the exhibition's preparatory phases, the event's strengths and weaknesses, the adopted methodologies, and the outcomes. One of the research goals was to narrow the gap between academic theory and everyday museum practice. This exhibition represented the opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of seismic risk assessment in temporary exhibitions.
