Abstract

The spectacularity of museography appears in the contemporary as an antagonísm of the white cube of modern age, creating special/space worlds for the exhibition of art. From that point, the curator puts himself, in a way, as co-author of the piece of art, regarding the presentation of the work of art, specially on contemporary art, being on many cases the essence of the work itself. The exhibition put itself on the categoty of an event, as the International Expos on 20th century. The exhibition as event/show appears on the end of 20th century, in special in the 90, bringing with it a severa! numbers of adepts and critics."lt's bom a new esthetics of exhibition, in witch assemble the curator take cver the rol! that is beyond the assemble of canvas, sculptures, objects or installation art. The curator conceives the exhibition as a criticai project that is shared with the artist himself (if he is still alive)". (GONÇALVES, L., 2004, p. 41). The curator puts himself on a very important roll in the way of how the visitor will interact with the art piece, he becomes responsible for this relationship, creating with this a new reality in witch the work of art will be, in a way, rediscover allowing news forms of reading of the same work of art, depending on the look or the intention of the curator.Besides the manner of the theatricality and the others effects proponent by the curator, ín the specific case of Installation Art, there is still the question of how the piece is assemble, in witch case it could actually change its expression, own essence depending on how it is exhibit.
