KATAR’DA KÜLTÜR, MİRAS VE MÜZE ÇALIŞMALARI

Dünya 2000’lerin ortasından itibaren Arap Körfezi’ndeki “yeni müzeleri” yakından izlemektedir.1970'e kadar, Bahreyn, Birleşik Arap Emirlikleri, Kuveyt ve Katar gibi eski İngiliz sömürgelerindemüzelerin kültürel bir politika ile tanınmasını önerecek hiçbir gelişme yaşanmamıştır. 1960'larınsonlarında bölgede kültürel mirası gururla sergileyecek müzeler açılmaya başlamıştır. Katar’ın ulusalmirasını koruma, Arap kimliğini geliştirmeyi amaçlayan Katar Müzeleri, ülkenin bölgedeki gücünü,geleneksel bedevi yaşam tarzını, Al Thani hanedanının egemenliğiyle birlikte petrol sonrasımodernleşme dönemini ve göçle birlikte gelişen yeni Doha kimliğini yansıtmaktadır. Bu gelişmelerinsonucu olarak Katar müzeleri, ulusal kimliği temsil eden nesneleri sınıflandırmakta; teknolojiktasarımlarla sunmakta ve cazibe merkezleri haline gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Arap Körfezi’ndekimüzeciliğin gelişiminden hareketle Katar’daki müzelerin amaç ve işlevlerine genel bir bakış sunmakamaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda Katar Ulusal Müzesi, İslam Sanatları Müzesi ve MathafÇağdaş Sanatlar Müzesi’nin uluslararası izleyici kitlesi için kendine özgü kimlikleri geliştirmekamacıyla miras nesneleri üzerinden izledikleri müzecilik yaklaşımı değerlendirilmiştir.

CULTURE, HERITAGE AND MUSEUM STUDIES IN QATAR

World has been closely monitoring the new museums in the Arabian Gulf since the mid-2000s. Until the 1970s, there were no developments in the old British colonies, such as Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Qatar which would largely promote cultural recognition of museums. In the late 1960s, studies for museums concerned about historical development in the region. Qatar Museums aim to emphasize the need to preserve Qatar's national heritage and to develop Arab identity. These museums classify the objects representing the identity of Qatar; technology with digital design that push the boundaries and make these regions the center of attraction. The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the forms and functions of museums in Qatar. For this purpose, Qatar National Museum, Museum of Islamic Arts and Mathaf Museum of Contemporary Arts were evaluated through Qatar museums' local approach to cultural heritage to develop unique identities for the international audience.
