The article attempts to reconstruct the modalities through which some of the museums that worked in Buenos Aires during the first half of the decade of 1940 related to their public: specifically, it will try to clarify how many people went to the museums of historical character and inquire about the reasons by which they did it. The spatiotemporal cut responds to the need of perform a comparative analysis of operating modes of four museums relatively close, between 1938 and 1946, at times in which the recently installed National Commission of Museums and Monuments and Historical Sites was presided by historian Ricardo Levene.Downloads
