Скачать или смотреть Malcolm Rogers: The Art Museum in the 21st Century

Malcolm Rogers' lecture, 'The Art Museum in the 21st Century', delivered as part of his Humanitas Visiting Professorship in Museums, Galleries and Libraries at the University of Oxford, May 2012.

Drawing on his long and eminent career at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, as well as on his extensive experience as an art historian, Rogers set out his reflections on the ideal of accessibility; both its importance in a democratic age but also the challenges, pragmatic and philosophical, which the concept encounters. He made a trenchant case against the excesses of an academic-theoretical approach to the public presentation of works of art, and championed instead the more inclusive ways in which a museum might display its treasures to the widest possible audience.
