The Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography University Turin, in collaboration with the Piedmont Center for African Studies and Art Holden, has language against language.

A collaborative exhibition, a pilot project conducted within the European MAP for ID - Museums as Places for Intecultural Dialogue with the coordination and support of the City of Turin. Based on a participatory planning process of language against language will harness the ethnographic collections of the Museum through an experimental process of social inclusion, active citizenship and cultural empowerment.

At the end of a training course for mediators of intercultural heritage - the "heart" button on the project - Mediators and mediators from Chad, Italy, Morocco, Democratic Republic of Congo, Romania, Senegal, the first and second generation of immigrants, have designed and implemented a multi-vocal setting in collaboration with the representatives of the museum and an architect museographer.

The initiative is an innovative museological experiment for three reasons: the architect has been involved in all phases of design museographer playing the triple role of "facilitator" and "translator" in a process of sharing knowledge; The exhibition was conceived jointly narrated paths of dialogue, maintained and conducted by brokers and by museum educators; the story was intended as an instrument of mediation in the linguistic sense but as a sharing of knowledge and points of view is subjective and institutional creation or strengthening of a social link between museums and public commitment to a stimulus-cultural involvement of new citizens .

In practical terms, every broker and mediator has chosen one or more items from the Museum's ethnographic collections based on their cultural and emotional feeling. E 'Were you that is free / to relate to that material evidence - not necessarily from his own country or produced in its cultural context - that have raised more than any other ties with its own history of life, past and present, or with embedded memories and knowledge, passed down from generation to generation and background / heritage essential to the migratory path. The choice of the objects did so after the inception phase of the routes narrated asset which was also attended by the contacts of the Museum.

The objects were then displayed in glass cases that are "autobiographical facilities" where they found space assets also subjective - and often intimate domestic - mediators and mediators: souvenirs, photographs, clothes, books ...

The design of the assembly and design courses have thus narrated to each other cross, finding the pivot point in the narrative to proceed in a coordinated manner and at the same time independently. The autobiographical approach has also allowed us to introduce the experienced staff, including migration, and "return" items to the public and the Museum as examples of appropriate and re-appropriate stories vita.Per Finally, the language of the museum - institutional, scientific, didactic - the language of dialogue with mediators and mediators - autobiographical, evocative, emotional - of a wealth of performers that are not meant to establish any truth, but to offer interpretations.

Through the narration, objects in the collections Ethnographic Museum - sometimes in dialogue, too, with personal items - they become the protagonists of stories that, in view of fragments of lives lived and different points of view, turn out to carry a plurality of meanings in a cultural perspective that presents a challenge and opportunity for the Museum.
