迎向「公共性」的博物館展示策劃－以「玉言故事：臺灣玉傳奇」特展為例
Moving Toward "Publicness" in Museum Curating: "The Story of Taiwan's Nephrite" Exhibition as Example
摘要
博物館的展示順應社會潮流，適時策劃相關主題特展，促進公共領域中對於該主題的認識與思考，進而引發多面向的討論與相關群體的互動交流，是迎向公共性的重要任務。展示策劃過程中調理關係是重要環節，展示策劃者透過自身與物件／展品、人與人和群體、自身個體內在等各方關係的調理組織為展示故事軸線，成就展示內容的多元面貌，以博物館公共空間為主要平台，盡可能海納和協調各項與主題相關的專業對象，透過展示進行交流對話，呼應當代博物館做為公共空間的特性。本文以國立自然科學博物館2021年展出的「玉言故事：臺灣玉傳奇」特展為例，解構展示策劃過程中策展者如何從學術機構、產業工坊、地方館舍、蒐藏家與藝術家等領域調理相關的關係網絡，挑選各相關專業領域展品，在展前、展期的溝通與討論，乃至於搭配博物館展示之教育活動進行延伸性的交流，更進一步促發與觀眾的互動連結，自身再以觀眾的回應接續後繼的行動等，以此發現隱於博物館的內在展示策劃，如何迎向公共性的趨勢，朝向新的展示策劃行動與實踐。

Museum exhibitions conform to social trends, leading to timely curation of themed special exhibitions to promote understanding of and thinking on topics in the public domain, further triggering multi-faceted discussions and interactive exchanges among relevant groups. This is important for embracing publicness. Regulation of relationships is a major part of the curation process. Curators develop exhibition story axes based on the regulation and organization of relationships, such as of self and objects/ exhibited items, people and groups, and self and inner self, achieving exhibition content of diverse aspects. With public spaces of museums as their main platform, they accommodate and coordinate professional targets related to the items and theme. Through exhibitions, they conduct exchanges and dialogues and respond to the idea of museums as public spaces. In this article, "The Story of Taiwan's Nephrite" exhibition, held at the National Museum of Natural Science in 2021, is used as an example to deconstruct how curators, during the process of curation, from the network of regulated relationships among academic institutions, industry workshops, local museums, collectors, and artists choose relevant items for exhibition, communicate and carry out discussions before and during the exhibition period, and extend exchanges by complementing the exhibition-associated educational activities of the museum. Further, curators promote interactive connections with audiences and use feedback from audiences for follow-up actions. In this way, the process of curation, often hidden in museums, is revealed. Moreover, how to embrace publicness trends and move toward new exhibition curation actions and practices is addressed.
