Museum without Walls

Since the community was being used as a construction site for the Olympic Park - one of the strategies used to pressure residents and compel families to accept the proposal of the City of Rio de Janeiro -, the sculpture “Suporte dos Males” and part of the sculpture “Espaço Ocupa e Casa da Dona Conceição” were destroyed by tractors.

Today, the ruins of houses and collective equipments that were destroyed became part of the museum's collection and of what the residents call a memory route, along which several signs were installed to evoke spaces that existed in Vila Autódromo before the evictions.

What happens then in the future if an artist, collector or gallery wishes to re-exhibit an artwork where the original equipment has not been collected or the equipment required is entirely obsolete and unavailable?
