How can Foucault's notion of heterotopia serve us to evaluate conflicts observed in Brazilian museums in the 21st century? This is the question that stimulates this article: the territorialities that are currently manifested in museums put pressure on the organization of their exhibitions, the exhibition period and the visibility of their artists. Mitchell classifies this use of culture as proper to a cultural war, in which the expressions of interest groups project beyond the artistic sense of the debate, with clear intentions of political effect. Although the boundaries between politics, science and art cannot be easily defined and, as a rule, there is no phenomena dissociated from the political sphere, museums have not been standardized or organized to mediate and host political conflicts. In this displacement of politics in an advanced phase of Modernity, an attempt to rearrange forces that only make sense when associated with the organization of space can be observed.
