- Abstract
The changing definitions of museums and the habitus of going to the museum, which is affected by this, also transforms different forms of capital. At the same time, this transformation takes place on the basis of reality. Baudrillard stated that the concept of reality was lost towards the 20th century. According to Baudrillard, there is now the existence of virtual reality where we can talk with simulation and symbols. In addition, Baudrillard mentions that there is no single reality phenomenon for art. Within the scope of this study, Madame Tussauds Museum, which emphasizes the phenomenon of reality and has a very serious visitor mass today, was discussed in order to address this change, Bourdieu's concepts of habitus and capital and Baudrillard's Simulation Theory were examined through Madame Tussauds Museum. Since Madame Tussauds Museum is a frequently visited museum, it both represents a reality and becomes an object where the variability of communication forms can be examined. For this reason, it was thought that Madame Tussauds could provide an example of the changing museum concept. While doing this, it is foreseen that the post-modern world as a representation of the art museum can facilitate showing the changing relationship and reality forms. In the results of the study, it has been determined that the emphasis on reality of Madame Tussauds Museum is based on the fact that the works of art are very similar to reality and the exhibition process is based on this emphasis. In addition, it has been concluded that the emphasis on reality affects the visitor profile and the rate of visiting museums, and it has been observed that economic concerns or global reasons may lead to the transformation of museums into economic capital tools rather than cultural capital.Today, where visual communication is quite common, it is thought that this review can provide a different perspective.
