Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 博物館研究所碩士班 === 97 === In order to introduce the gender issues of the museum, we take the Gueishan Military Dependents Village Museum as the case in this research, applying with the methods of participant observation method and a displaying analysis technique. The research discusses how the members in the museum establish, display and narrate to analyze the gender images displayed in the Gueishan Military Dependents Village Museum. The interpretation lies in the concept of “multi-sharing.” Besides, the research applies the six types of gender bias and standards proposed by Gender Equity Committee in the New York State Museum as the reading perspective to reflect and examine what limits the displayed gender images. In this research, we find that most of the members in the Gueishan Military Dependents Village Museum do not live in the military dependent quarters nor do they grow up in Gueishan Township. They gather together is to establish their “hometown” and their “family” without any relationship. Therefore, there is no difficulty in understanding why the museum adopts the concept of “changing others’ homes to their hometown” as the discussion topic, with the trying to make use of the daily life and many residents’ old and cultural objects to piece the scene of the military families together. And the images of the military dependents established by the members will be also beautiful and memorable. For example, the strengthened and traditional dual gender images – “men’s leaving home and women’s creation”, “men’s management and women’s taking care of”, and “men’s military life and women’s family” attract the audience to remember their “homesickness in labor” to make the display appear truer and identify the audience with the military dependents in Gueishan more easily. However, it was a pity that in order to summon people to yearn for and identify themselves with the military dependents, this display and narrative technique will ignore some unequal relationship between males and females and does not express the impact, life experiences and feelings of the females in their migration to the military quarter.
