Sažetak
Most of the assumptions on the motivation to visit museums are based on the idea of museums and/or exhibitions as learning spaces. The evaluation of audience experiences concerning the Identity on the line exhibitions, dealing with seven different migration processes that took place over the last hundred years in Europe, goes beyond learning and cognitive aspects of audience research and, in line with the affective turn in museums, addresses the feelings evoked by the exhibition. The results of the evaluation show the potential exhibitions have as agents of empathy and resilience.
In order to identify the interpretive strategies facilitating affective curatorship, the author applies the affective niche construction theory. Contrary to cognitive niche construction, which consists in developing and using environmental resources to aid remembering, problem solving, reasoning, and other forms of thinking, affective niche construction consists in manipulating resources to influence the way we feel the letter implying curating and presenting personal narratives and narrative-related artefacts.
