| Popis: | 93 Museums are symbols of civilized society, and serve as an index of a country''s cultural standards．The museums discussed in this thesis refer specifically to fine art museums, which are designed with the goal of serving the public, and it is on this foundation of service that a museum''s elements are constituted. When discussing the planning and establishment of an art museum, the focus should include not only the necessary external factors, such as culture, society, organizational systems, and other factors related to the broader environment, but also a careful examination of whether the museum encompasses a complete set of necessary elements based on its subjective expectations. There are many factors necessary for a museum to operate smoothly and fully realize its potential, including a careful choice of site and a well-defined direction, a clear idea about the content and its distinguishing characteristics, a complete model for the museum''s organization and daily operation, suitable consideration of the museum''s functions and efficiency, complete and well-equipped facilities, and a well-developed plan for expansion. The success of a museum''s operations, therefore, is contingent on its operational foundation and overall resources, a strategic plan for development, a receptive public, and its organizational structure. These five elements form the soul of a museum, and are the base of its operations. It is only through careful attention to each of these elements that a museum can operate effectively and meet its overall operational goals. In short, a new opportunity and a sound framework of an art museum can be realized through an exploration of the elements of a museum and a proposal of ideas, plans, surveys and analysis. This research focuses on the study of the basic elements of an art museum, while exploring the current status of art museums in Taiwan and other regions in Asia, discussing the issues confronted by Taiwan''s art museums in the future, and proposing a series of strategies and suggestions. The thesis begins by discussing and compiling relevant literature so as to gain a systematic understanding of the basic elements of art museums and the history of art museums. The thesis then turns its attention to data analysis to understand the current functions and structures of art museums in Taiwan and other regions in Asia, as well as find commonality between different art museums in their elements and actual operation. Lastly, the thesis discusses the important issues regarding the elements of Tainan''s Asian Pacific art museum, and makes a series of suggestions for the planning and establishment of art museums in the future. |
