Book Description

ADDITIONAL REVIEWS:

"For any museum visitor these revelations of what the museum directors think of what we think of them are fascinating, and sometimes shocking."--Maev Kennedy, Art Quarterly

ADDITIONAL ENDORSEMENTS:

"Clearly written and quite accessible, the papers in this volume will reinforce the traditional view of art museums held by many readers while also addressing recent challenges to the museum's legitimacy as a public institution."--Bruce J.
