This is a way to collectively share marks of the past revealing the political will of commemoration. Frequently referred to as the "duty of memory,” the understanding of what has been done and what can be done, do not only require observing the presence of arranged material or analyzing the intentions of the creators. It also involves taking into account cultural transmission and memory process which engage the subject-spectator to the time of interpretation.
