This study covers museum rest areas among the methods that reduce museum fatigue. The subjects of the study were Seoul branch of the representative National Museum of Contemporary Art and National Museum of Korea. These museums were compared and analyzed with The National Art Center of Tokyo and Tokyo National Museum. The first research step was the analysis of museums' floor plan, and the second step was the tracing survey of visitors' movement. The result of this study was as follows. The National Art Center of Tokyo and Tokyo National Museum had the rest space within the visitors' route along with good viewing areas. National Museum of Korea had poor viewing area even though there was the rest space withing the visitors' route. Lastly, Seoul branch of National Museum of Contemporary Art had the rest space out of visitors' route along with poor viewing areas. This study is meaningful in that it provided guidelines for museum space plan with visitors' route considered, so that their museum fatigue can be relieved along with the guideline that can be applied to space elements of rest space.

This article focuses how the materials of hatstrings of the 19th to 20th century gat, the Korean top hat for men among the collections of National Folk Museum of Korea, was transformed after port opening treaties with overseas since 1876. As a result of analyzing the materials of the hatstrings, amber, tortoiseshell, wood and bamboo as the traditional materials were used, and ivory, glass (soda glass, lead glass, alkali mixed glass) and plastics (cellulose nitrate, phenol-formaldehyde, polystyrene, acryl) were newly used for the hatstrings. Bamboo, wood and amber were the most frequently used materials. Bamboo was mainly used for the pipe of hatstring and were combined with beads and central decorations of other materials. This shows the trend of bamboo hatstring according to the simplification of the clothing and the culture by Regent Heungseon Daewongun. Ambers were used in the central decorations and beads and the origin of ambers was baltic amber just like the amber relics found in Korea. Compositions of glass were soda glass and alkali mixed glass which were excavated or handed down in Korea from ancient times to Joseon dynasty. But in the case of lead glass, Na2O was detected and it is considered to be a new type lead glass for crafts which came from overseas after port opening since 1876 because it showed the characteristic that it deviates from the lead glass component found in Korea. Plastics such as cellulose nitrate and phenol-formaldehyde were used as new synthetic materials to replace traditional materials such as tortoiseshell, amber, and coral as in the West. Cracks, crazing, crumbly and yellowing of cellulose nitrate of hatstrings were observed by deterioration. The survey of the materials of the 19th to 20th century hatstrings among the collections of National Folk Museum of Korea showed that the introduction of new materials such as glass and plastics were used to replace natural materials such as tortoiseshell and amber along with the use of traditional materials after port opening since 1876.

우리나라 대부분의 과학관에는 천문시설이 갖추어져 있고, 천문분야 전시와 교육이 어느 정도는 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 자연사박물관에서는 천문분야가 주요 분야로 인정받고 있지 못하고 그 내용도 빈약한 편이다. 수도권에서 매우 중요한 역할을 하고, 연간 35만 명 정도의 관람객이 방문하고 있는 서대문자연사박물관에도 일부 천문 전시가 있긴 하지만 다른 분야에 비해 매우 빈약하다. 자연의 역사를 다루는 자연사박물관에서 우주의 탄생으로 보여주는 천문학은 중요한 역할을 차지할 여지가 있고, 실제 해외 유명 자연사박물관에서는 천문 분야가 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다. 국립자연사박물관의 건설도 추진되고 있는 상황에서 자연사박물관에서의 천문전시와 교육이 어떤 방향으로 이루어져야 할지 논의해 보았으면 한다.

20세기 중반에 들어서서 박물관이나 미술관들은 전시위주의 소극적 자세에서 탈피하여 일반대중을 끌어들이기 위한 적극적 자세를 취하면서 전시공간 이외의 서비스공간들이 도입되고 있다. 그러나 박물관의 근본적 목적은 관람객과 전시품의 직접적 만남에 의해 성취된다는 의미에서 전시공간에 대한 고려는 기타 서비스공간에 대한 고려 이전에 우선되어야 한다는 사실은 매우 중요하다 하겠다. 이런 의미에서 공공박물관에 있어서도 전시공간이 여전히 중요하다는 인식과 함께 현대박물관에서 나타나고 있는 전시공간구성의 특성을 살펴보고자 한다. 이렇게 하는데 있어서 본 글에서는 이태리 디자이너인 가에 아울렌티의 작업에 관심을 갖고 그의 대표적인 작품인 오르세이 미술관과 국립현대미술관을 대상으로 하여 분석하면서 현대 박물관의 전시공간구성에 대한 방향을 정리하고자 한다.

Conservation treatment was done for the pottery-stand of Kaya period which was to be exhibited in celebration of the opening of Kimhae National Museum and for the jar of Chinese celadon which was to be exhibited in Korea National Museum's special exhibition "Formation of Ancient States". Through the examinations by naked eyes and under the microscope, condition before treatment, patterns and manufacturing techniques of the objects were observed. According to these examinations, conservation treatments, suitable for each object was finished. As the pottery-stand was damaged severely, the epoxy resin was pasted directly on the broken surface of the pottery to restore the original shape and pattern, color and feeling similar to original state were given to the restored area. Although same restoration material was applied on the celadon, it was not pasted directly on the broken surface of the celadon so that the restored area could be dismantled, and color and feeling were also treated somewhat differently.

This paper presents a new classification and code system on the Archives of the Government-general Museum of Joseon in the National Museum of Korea. Three points were noted that since the Museum belonged to the Government-general of Joseon, the classification system of the Archives should be established to comply with the Archives system of the Government-general of Joseon; based on the concept of the functional provenance, it is necessary to establish a classification system in accordance with the organization structure of the Government-general Museum of Joseon; a systematic and simple classification codes should be given based on the classification system to improve the convenience of searching and using the official document. The classification system and its code are proposed in the order of major function, medium function, small function, and detailed function. The major function of the Archives is 'A-Educational affairs', medium function 'Museum.' The small function may be divided into General affairs (01), Temple (02), Scenic Spot and Natural Monument (03), Historical Site (04), and Museum (05). The detailed function and detailed sub-functions are categorized by the various work assignments in each work units. I hope that this new classification system will make a contribution to organizing and utilizing the Archives of the Government-general Museum of Joseon in the National Museum of Korea.
