摘要：Museum of food in the town of Vevey (foundation of Nestle Company) is trying to offer to the general public the answers to a number of questions about the relationship between man and food. This article brings out the description of the new permanent exhibition set in Alimentarium in 2002 and the outline of the museological study of Martin R. Schärer (director of Alimentarium, historian and museologist) on the process of musealization of objects, different ways of their presentation (presentation languages) and on visualization as a means of selection of objects, illustrations and other methods with the purpose to emphasize the multitude of meanings the objects can have for the museum visitor.
