Download or read book Corporate museum written by Xianya Xu and published by Altralinea Edizioni . This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate Museum has experienced more than one hundred years of growth, and it has become a significant member of the museum-associated universe because of its unique character. Meanwhile, the commercialization and multiplicity of the public museum have blurred the discrepancies between them. Many corporate museums are currently popular cultural tourist sites and representations of regional identities. By depicting an image of a corporate museum’s identity, this book critically investigates the design features of this type of museum, deriving insights from an examination of both its public presentation and its corporate task. It aims to present a basic overview of the corporate museum, including its history, in order to better examine the subject in an appropriate context. With the help of multi-interface examination of selected cases, this book intends to flesh out that the corporate museum serves both a commercial nature and also the public interest.

Download or read book Tourism and the Creative Industries written by Philip Long and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the theoretical, policy and practice linkages and disjunctures between tourism and the creative industries. There are clear and strong intersections between the sectors, for example in the development and application of new and emerging media in tourism; festivals and cultural events showcasing the creative identity of place; tours and place identities associated with film, TV, music and arts tourism; as well as particular destinations being promoted on the basis of their ‘creative’ endowments such as theatre breaks, art exhibitions and fashion shows. Tourism and the Creative Industries explores a variety of relationships in one volume and offers innovative and critical insights into how creative industries and tourism together contribute to place identity, tourist experience, destination marketing and management. The book is aligned with the sectors that have been demarcated by the UK Government Department of Culture, Media and Sport as comprising the creative industries: advertising and marketing; architecture; design and designer fashion; film, TV, video, radio and photography; IT, software and computer services; publishing and music; performing and visual arts. The title of this volume demonstrates how the exclusion of tourism from the creative industries is arguably perverse, given that much of the work by destination managers and of private sector tourism is characterised by creativity and innovation. Interdisciplinary research and international context bring a broader perspective on how the creative industries operate in varying cultural and policy contexts in relation to tourism. This book brings together the parallel and disparate inter-disciplinary fields of tourism and the creative industries and will be of interest to students, academics and researchers interested in tourism, creative industries, marketing and management.
