Christian Greco: the Museum as an agora

The director of the Museo Egizio in Turin, describes with passion how the museum is becoming a place of dialogue and innovation. Working with Politecnico di Milano, photogrammetry and 3D modeling have revolutionized the Saqqara excavations, while the SiME software has digitized artifact management. For Greco, every object is memory, every museum a cultural landscape. Ancient Egypt thus becomes a key to understanding the present and building a shared, inclusive culture.
