Still a subject of few researches, dependent on society’s dynamics and its trends, along with the fact of comprehending a diversity of subjects, becomes a considerable complex theme. Therefore, we decided to approach it under what we consider one of its main views: as a communication act.As final considerations we advocate an alteration of the window displayer status and required skills, an ecological attitude inwindowpresentation aswell as an investment on the development of exhibition gimmicks,as versatility and creativity enhancer.
