MUSEOLOGY AND MUSEOGRAPHY
Museographic project and technical direction
The “Americans”Interpretation centre
Execution dates 2019 – 2023
Development of the Avant project, the executive project and the technical direction of the “American Interpretation Centre”, dedicated to disseminating the Indiano legacy preserved in the municipality of Sant Pere de Ribes.
The architecture, urban planning, history, economy and traditions in Sant Pere de Ribes reveal the imprint left by the inhabitants who went to the overseas colonies to make their fortune at the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century and who returned to the municipality under the name of “Americans”. The centre aims to explain the significance of this phenomenon from all areas, focusing on architecture, social and cultural changes, and also on trade, both in goods and slaves.
Between 2019 and 2022, the creation of this new centre was developed, located right next to the City Hall and in a very central position in the city. That is why the building also has a strategic role for the dissemination and tourist communication of the city.
Project carried out for:
Sant Pere de Ribes City Council
