Abstract
The presented case study offers an outline of Vienna’s museum of applied arts’ history during the transitional phase from Austria’s First Republic to the authoritarian regime of Austrofascism. It covers if and to which degree external factors like political ideologies were infl uencing the institution’s exhibition policies. Especially under the intense scrutiny of the ruling regime any proactive undertaking on the part of any museum’s director holdsspecial importance. Even more so as in this case Richard Ernst, the acting director, held this post from 1932 to 1950, thereby allowing the assessment of his policies throughout several changes of government. The study suggests that the modernisation of the exhibition space that took place under his leadership is connected to an overall repositioning as a scientific institution in opposition (or at least complementation) to the museum’s previous function as a promotional platform for Austrian businesses at home and abroad. Il caso di studio presenta uno spaccato della storia del Museo di Storia delle Arti Applicate di Vienna durante la transizione dall’Austria della Prima Repubblica all’affermazione del regime autoritario dell’Austrofascismo. Intende dimostrare se e in quale misura fattori esterni come le ideologie abbiano infl uenzato le politiche espositive dell’istituzione. Specialmente sotto l’intenso controllo del regime ogni attività proattiva dei direttori museali assume particolare importanza, come si evince dal caso di Richard Ernst, direttore in carica dal 1932 al 1950, che permette di effettuare una valutazione delle scelte da lui effettuate nel corso di dei diversi cambi di governo. Lo studio dimostra che la modernizzazione dello spazio espositivo, che ebbe luogo sotto la sua direzione, è connessa a una risistemazione globale del museo come istituzione scientifi ca, in opposizione (o almeno come completamento) alla precedente funzione intesa come strumento di promozione per le imprese austriache in patria e all’estero.
