Stationary exposition “Link of Times”: Historical Time
The exhibition “Historical Time” presents the history of the taiga Ob-Irtysh land, Samarovo, Khanty-Mansiysk and Khanty-Mansiysk region from the Stone Age to the modern time. The exhibition consists of three composition themes that consistently represent different epochs:
“Antiquity” – prehistory and history of the Ob-Irtysh area from the Stone Age to the late Middle Ages;
“Samarovo” – history of the region since the accession of Siberia to Russia (the end of the XVI century) till World War I;
“Twentieth Century” – modern history, from the period of revolution in 1917 till the present days.
However, the entire exhibition and its individual components are united internally by common themes that form the algorithm “Link of Times”.
The events and characters of different ages in spite of the distance in time, essentially have something in common with each other in the positioning of social and individual values and interests.
The journey through the epochs that is offered to the visitors includes acquaintance with the facts and characters of history; every scene recreates the atmosphere of its era, forming together the canvas of historical events.
The exhibition has main accents: “historical image” and “historical lesson”.
Accordingly, from a methodological point of view that gives the visitor double impression: understanding and involvement in the story.
The amplitude of the dialogue ranges from a millennium to a moment, creating a coherent historic image of the region.
That is what the main idea of the exposition is.
