Reorganisation Methods for Museum Storage within the Framework of Collection Management

Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera promotes an intensive training workshop dedicated to the design and management of museum spaces, the reorganisation of collections, and the development of operational tools for professional practice.

The workshop, with a total duration of two non-consecutive weeks, is aimed at a selected group of 20 students from two degree programs of the Academy: the School of Restoration and the School of Cultural Heritage. The initiative seeks to provide both theoretical and practical skills in the field of preventive conservation and museum storage management, with particular attention to critical issues and best practices at an international level.

The training is based on the use of the RE-ORG method, a structured and flexible approach designed to support storage reorganization interventions and long-term heritage management activities. The method enables participants to acquire tools that can be applied autonomously in different museum and collection contexts.

Through theoretical lectures, analytical activities, and practical exercises, students will be engaged in a learning pathway addressing topics such as collection organization, space optimization, documentation, the design of reorganization plans, and the drafting of operational guidelines.

The workshop is part of the educational activities of the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, with the aim of strengthening the dialogue between academic training and professional practice, offering students concrete tools to operate in the museum sector and in the management of cultural heritage.
