As linguagens do Museu Regional do Iguaçu e a nova museologia (2000-2015)

The Iguaçu Regional Museum, located at the Governador Ney Amintas de Barros Braga Hydroelectric Plant, in the town of Reserva do Iguaçu, opened under the administration of Governor Jaime Lerner, in 2000, it is one of the most modern memorial places in the interior of the state of Paraná. To this end, in the context of New Museology, the article analyzes the discursive and imagistic language that the Iguaçu Regional Museum has built for itself and its audience, identifying the identities intended to protect. On the other hand, it reflects on the self-image (associated with environmental preservation and cultural heritage), that the Companhia Paranaense de Energia Elétrica (Copel) has conveyed both in Brazil and abroad.
