Description
Summary:The mass rapid transit hubs are adopted increasingly as significant public places of contemporary urban space, often charging of meanings and values superior to the mere functional sphere. The search for these places of beauty and relationship with heritage are making them a space for spatial experimentation that implies an increasingly active role for art and historical-archaeological heritage. The article aims to highlight possible frontiers for museum statutes outside the Museum and the potential of the infrastructure as a museum disseminated all under the city as a sort of City Wide Web Museum, thanks to the overcoming of the merely decorative dimension and the involvement of both artistic operations and archaeological finds.
