摘要

在现代博物馆的历史过程中,各种有毒的化学物质被用来防止收藏的物品变质。杀虫剂和防腐剂的残留现在与它们原本要保护的物体一起存在。这些化学保护技术与不可预测的物质机构密切相关,这些机构是地球尺度上人类世残留物遗产的特征。然而,化学品也构成了地方、家庭和日常世界的一部分,它们被用来维持秩序、防止损失和确保物质的连贯性。在这篇文章中,我调查了挪威的露天博物馆,作为具有杀虫剂和防护性能的新化学产品被驯化的场所,并在与“博物馆害虫”和木制建筑腐烂的斗争中进行试验。通过探索从焦炭生产废料中提取的碳基化学物质,我反思了保存建筑中废物和遗产的材料融合,以及在20世纪早期和中期,博物馆保护如何依赖于这些不可预测且高度持久的化学物质。

Toxic Heritage
In the course of modern museum history, a variety of toxic chemicals have been used to prevent the deterioration of collected objects. The residues of pesticides and preservatives now persist together with the objects they were intended to protect. These chemical conservation technologies are intimately bound up with the unpredictable material agencies that are characteristic of the legacy of Anthropocene residues on a planetary scale. However, chemicals also form part of local, domestic, everyday worlds where they were used to maintain order, prevent loss and ensure material coherence. In this article I investigate Norwegian open-air museums as sites where new chemical products with pesticidal and protective properties were domesticated and placed on trial in the battle against “museum pests” and the decay of wooden buildings. By exploring carbon-based chemicals derived from the waste products of coke production, I reflect on the material convergence of waste and heritage in preserved buildings and how in the early and mid-twentieth century museum conservation came to rely on these unpredictable and highly persistent chemical agents.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Contemporary Archaeology is the first dedicated, international, peer-reviewed journal to explore archaeology’s specific contribution to understanding the present and recent past. It is concerned both with archaeologies of the contemporary world, defined temporally as belonging to the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, as well as with reflections on the socio-political implications of doing archaeology in the contemporary world. In addition to its focus on archaeology, JCA encourages articles from a range of adjacent disciplines which consider recent and contemporary material-cultural entanglements, including anthropology, art history, cultural studies, design studies, heritage studies, history, human geography, media studies, museum studies, psychology, science and technology studies and sociology. Acknowledging the key place which photography and digital media have come to occupy within this emerging subfield, JCA includes a regular photo essay feature and provides space for the publication of interactive, web-only content on its website.
