Display and applied holography in culture development

The analysis of possible applications of the modern science achievements in various spheres of culture is one of the important and rather actual prob- lems of the present. In this respect optical holography, as a new method of recording and reconstruction of light fields, affords extraordinary potentia- lities to be applied in the domain of culture, viz, in art and museology, un- common to optics and quantum electronics. These possibilities are analyzed in the presented paper. It is also connected with the idea to show for the museo- logists, who are not very much acquainted with this new field, the real achie- vements in holography, different aspects of their applications in the museum life and to discuss these possibilities by the rather simple way.
