Abstract

The paper is divided into three parts.  In the first I introduce the concept of museums through a combination of authors who explain it in an “expanded way”. In the second part I attempt a montage among four emblematic sets – a private collection, a gallery, a cave and a museum – related to a Chilean film maker, Raul Ruiz; an Argentine writer, Julio Cortazar; a German filmmaker-traveller, Werner Herzog, and a Russian filmmaker Alexander Sokurov. In the third part I attempt a montage inspired by Aby Warburg’s Atlas Mnemosyne.
