Sažetak
The exhibition “The Mijoka Shipwreck: Awakened Secret of Murter’s Sea” was opened on December 20, 2018, at the Šibenik City Museum. It was organised by the Šibenik City Museum in cooperation with the Croatian Conservation Institute, and it was funded by the Ministry of Culture and the City of Šibenik. Using an educational approach, video projections and innovative design, the exhibition told the story of underwater archaeological research and provided insight into the diverse culture of the 16th and 17th centuries, the production and trade of European craft centres during the Renaissance, and maritime affairs and events on the Adriatic during this period. In addition to numerous museum exhibits, the wide range of topics and contexts required special exhibition conditions, so the interpretation of the site, historical framework, and methodology and conclusions of the research were presented separately on wall panels. The predominantly small and diverse material required a particular approach to analysis, division and interpretation, as well as the way it was displayed, so the display cases were incorporated into large tables. Along with a group of objects exhibited in a plexiglass display case, there was an interpretive field with an analytical review and comparative illustrations. Emphasis on the objects and their physical presence was also achieved through lighting designed for this exhibition and space. Numerous lectures and workshops, and a workbook for school-age children, were organized during the exhibition. After Šibenik, the exhibition visited Zadar, Jezera (on the island of Murter), Dubrovnik and Pula, and each new exhibition space gave the exhibition a new dimension.
