A journey through the history of the Alpine region to discover the relationship between man and nature, the challenges of promoting a culture of sustainability and the great transformations that have affected the mountains of Trentino in recent centuries.
The exhibition aims to understand the mountains – the experience, the perception and the impact – in a historical moment crossed by enormous accelerations and changes, where the Alps, as the middle ground, appear at the centre of change. The presence of infrastructure, industries, mass tourism, communication routes and, more generally, the multiplying effects of human power linked to the massive use of technological prostheses, have brought mountain territories to the centre of attention. Through this continuous change, the Alps have become a major transnational and multi-ethnic study laboratory for the development of good practices and the processing of eco-sustainable territorial organisation models.
The exhibition focuses on the last centuries, from the late Middle Ages onwards, when the rural colonisation of the mountains laid the foundations for the birth of the Alpine landscape as we know it. The chosen themes are divided into a series of actions that identify the same number of areas in the exhibition: inhabiting, conquering, governing, narrating, working and representing the Alps. In addition to these actions, there are three important thematic focuses on the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites, the Italian Alpine Club (CAI) and the Association of Trentino Alpinists (SAT).
Great attention is also paid to the educational dimension linked to the Alpine landscape and its transformations: there is an area in the exhibition specially designed for schools, which will also challenge the adult public with questions, curiosities and good practices. The contents of the interactive tables have been sponsored by the Educational Area of the Fondazione Museo Storico del Trentino.
Finally, a bookshop dedicated to some of the themes featured in the exhibition will be set up in the Galleria displaying a selection of volumes from the publishers that collaborated in the initiative, in particular Donzelli Editore, Slow Food Editore and CAI.
