> [log in to unmask] Diane I'm an italian student in
economics writing the graduation work on museums and
their management and organization. Berlin has opened a museum of contemporary
art in an
old railway station. The reason of using old rail depots and also old factories
is to
renew old part of towns and try to create free time areas in abandoned part of
the
cities. In San Francisco and London they made it with the docks.
