Book Synopsis Cosmopolitan Ambassadors: International exhibitions, cultural diplomacy and the polycentral museum by : Lee Davidson
Download or read book Cosmopolitan Ambassadors: International exhibitions, cultural diplomacy and the polycentral museum written by Lee Davidson and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are museums working internationally through exhibitions? What motivates this work? What are the benefits and challenges? What factors contribute to success? What impact does this work have for audiences and other stakeholders? What contributions are they making to cultural diplomacy, intercultural dialogue and understanding? Cosmopolitan Ambassadors first considers the current state of knowledge about international exhibitions and proposes an interdisciplinary analytical framework encompassing museum studies, visitor studies, cultural diplomacy and international cultural relations, cosmopolitanism and intercultural studies. It then presents a comprehensive empirical analysis of an exhibition exchange involving two exhibitions that crossed five countries and three continents, connecting six high profile cultural institutions and spanning almost a decade from initial conception to completion. A detailed comparison of both the intercultural production of international exhibitions by museum partnerships and by the interpretive acts and meaning-making of visitors, reveals the many complexities, challenges, tensions and rewards of international exhibitions and their intersection with cultural diplomacy. Key themes include the realities of international collaboration, its purposes, processes and challenges; the politics of cultural (self-)representation and Indigenous museology; implications for exhibition design, interpretation, and marketing; intercultural competency and museum practice; audience reception and meaning-making; cultural diplomacy in practice and perceptions of its value. This first-ever empirically-grounded, theoretical analysis provides the basis of a new model of museums as polycentral: as places that might produce a kaleidoscopic vision of multiple centres and help to dissolve cultural boundaries by encouraging dialogue, negotiation and the search for intercultural understandings. Guidelines for practice include recommendations for successful international museum partnerships, exhibition development and maximizing the potential of museum diplomacy.
Book Synopsis The North American Mosaic by : Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat
Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Download or read book Lipstick Traces written by Greil Marcus and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greil Marcus, author of Mystery Train, widely acclaimed as the best book ever written about America as seen through its music, began work on this new book out of a fascination with the Sex Pistols: that scandalous antimusical group, invented in London in 1975 and dead within two years, which sparked the emergence of the culture called punk. âeoeI am an antichrist!âe shouted singer Johnny Rottenâe"where in the world of pop music did that come from? Looking for an answer, with a high sense of the drama of the journey, Marcus takes us down the dark paths of counterhistory, a route of blasphemy, adventure, and surprise.This is no mere search for cultural antecedents. Instead, what Marcus so brilliantly shows is that various kinds of angry, absolute demandsâe"demands on society, art, and all the governing structures of everyday lifeâe"seem to be coded in phrases, images, and actions passed on invisibly, but inevitably, by people quite unaware of each other. Marcus lets us hear strange yet familiar voices: of such heretics as the Brethren of the Free Spirit in medieval Europe and the Ranters in seventeenth-century England; the dadaists in Zurich in 1916 and Berlin in 1918, wearing death masks, chanting glossolalia; one Michel Mourre, who in 1950 took over Easter Mass at Notre-Dame to proclaim the death of God; the Lettrist International and the Situationist International, small groups of Parisâe"based artists and writers surrounding Guy Debord, who produced blank-screen films, prophetic graffiti, and perhaps the most provocative social criticism of the 1950s and âe(tm)60s; the rioting students and workers of May âe(tm)68, scrawling cryptic slogans on city walls and bringing France to a halt; the Sex Pistols in London, recording the savage âeoeAnarchy in the U.K.âe and âeoeGod Save the Queen.âe Although the Sex Pistols shape the beginning and the end of the story, Lipstick Traces is not a book about music; it is about a common voice, discovered and transmitted in many forms. Working from scores of previously unexamined and untranslated essays, manifestos, and filmscripts, from old photographs, dada sound poetry, punk songs, collages, and classic texts from Marx to Henri Lefebvre, Marcus takes us deep behind the acknowledged events of our era, into a hidden tradition of moments that would seem imaginary except for the fact that they are real: a tradition of shared utopias, solitary refusals, impossible demands, and unexplained disappearances. Written with grace and force, humor and an insistent sense of tragedy and danger, Lipstick Traces tells a story as disruptive and compelling as the century itself.
Book Synopsis La conservación preventiva : durante la exposición de dibujos y pinturas sobre lienzo by : Reyes Jiménez de Garnica
Download or read book La conservación preventiva : durante la exposición de dibujos y pinturas sobre lienzo written by Reyes Jiménez de Garnica and published by . This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La movilidad de las colecciones es una realidad que preocupa cada día más a los responsables de su conservación. Compartir piezas con otros museos e instituciones se ha convertido en una práctica habitual, que si bien nos acerca a nuevas culturas a través del contacto directo con las obras, exige la profesionalización de los técnicos y la aplicación de unos procedimientos y metodologías estrictos en el ámbito de la manipulación y presentación de los objetos. Solo una buena práctica y un profundo conocimiento teórico de los procedimientos pictóricos y la conservación preventiva permitirán conocer cómo y con qué están hechos los objetos, cómo reaccionan los materiales y cuál es el medio idóneo para su conservación. Este pequeño manual pretende dar unas pautas para la manipulación y presentación de dibujos y pinturas, detectando las situaciones de riesgo y avanzándonos a sus consecuencias. Se incluyen algunos ejemplos prácticos que dan sencillas soluciones aplicables en las salas de exposición. Únicamente gracias a una actuación responsable se permitirá exponer las obras con las máximas garantías de conservación y establecer protocolos para minimizar el impacto ambiental durante el periodo de exhibición. Reyes Jiménez de Garnica es licenciada en bellas artes por la Universidad Complutense y titulada en conservación y restauración de pintura por la Escuela Superior de Conservación y Restauración de Bienes Culturales de Madrid. Después de completar su formación en Italia, inició su carrera profesional en Suiza y Francia. Ha trabajado en diferentes instituciones del Estado, destacando las intervenciones en obras de gran formato y conjuntos patrimoniales. Formó parte del equipo del Museu Nacional d ́Art de Catalunya (MNAC) durante el proceso de remodelación de los fondos románico y gótico. Desde el 2002 dirige el departamento de conservación preventiva y restauración del Museu Picasso de Barcelona y es responsable de la conservación preventiva de las exposiciones temporales que realiza el museo.

Book Synopsis Nuevos criterios, aplicaciones y reflexiones en la conservación del arte contemporáneo by : María del Carmen Bellido Márquez
Download or read book Nuevos criterios, aplicaciones y reflexiones en la conservación del arte contemporáneo written by María del Carmen Bellido Márquez and published by ACCI (Asociación Cultural y Científica Iberoamericana). This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra Nuevos criterios, aplicaciones y reflexiones en la conservación del arte contemporáneo, tiene como objetivo difundir recientes avances en la conservación del arte contemporáneo, dando a conocer nuevas consideraciones y tendencias al respecto, así como recientes criterios seguidos y aplicaciones hechas en la materia para que estos conocimientos estén al alcance de los intersados. La temática de esta publicación es de gran actualidad, dado que los restauradores, conservadores, coleccionistas y trabajadores de museos y centros de arte demuestran tener un creciente interés sobre cómo actuar adecuadamente en la conservación del arte contemporáneo. Por todo ello, no cabe duda de que aunar esfuerzos y confrontar diferentes trabajos hace que los resultados sean más plurales y se cuente con variados puntos de vista y casos de estudio. El libro está formado por diez capítulos (en castellano o portugués), desarrollados por doce autores, todos ellos profesionales de las Bellas Artes y/o la Conservación-Restauración. Su edición ha sido posible gracias a la colaboración conjunta del Departamento de Escultura de la Universidad de Granada (España) y al Laboratory of Communication (LabCom) de la Universidad de Beira Interior (Covilhã, Portugal). Desde aquí manifestamos nuestro más sincero y profundo a ambas instituciones. Esta aportación contribuirá al avance en la concretización y el desarrollo apropiado de la conservación de la obra de arte contemporáneo, una materia que en sí misma es amplia y diversa, pero que, a la vez, es de gran importancia, dado que el arte es reflejo del paso del hombre por el mundo y su obra artística es una estela de la manifestación de sus inquietudes y aspiraciones, por lo que conservarla permitirá a las futuras generaciones contar con el testimonio de la sensibilidad de sus antecesores.

Book Synopsis Museum Activism by : Robert R. Janes
Download or read book Museum Activism written by Robert R. Janes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only a decade ago, the notion that museums, galleries and heritage organisations might engage in activist practice, with explicit intent to act upon inequalities, injustices and environmental crises, was met with scepticism and often derision. Seeking to purposefully bring about social change was viewed by many within and beyond the museum community as inappropriately political and antithetical to fundamental professional values. Today, although the idea remains controversial, the way we think about the roles and responsibilities of museums as knowledge based, social institutions is changing. Museum Activism examines the increasing significance of this activist trend in thinking and practice. At this crucial time in the evolution of museum thinking and practice, this ground-breaking volume brings together more than fifty contributors working across six continents to explore, analyse and critically reflect upon the museum’s relationship to activism. Including contributions from practitioners, artists, activists and researchers, this wide-ranging examination of new and divergent expressions of the inherent power of museums as forces for good, and as activists in civil society, aims to encourage further experimentation and enrich the debate in this nascent and uncertain field of museum practice. Museum Activism elucidates the largely untapped potential for museums as key intellectual and civic resources to address inequalities, injustice and environmental challenges. This makes the book essential reading for scholars and students of museum and heritage studies, gallery studies, arts and heritage management, and politics. It will be a source of inspiration to museum practitioners and museum leaders around the globe.
