Another damn special section on art museums. Some choice insipidness follows:
There are no rules, per se, about what the Newseum will and will not include in its daily digital display of newspaper front pages from around the globe. Incendiary opinions? Sure. Blood? Likely. Breasts? Constantly.
Oh how witty of you.
Blake Gopnik writes the same article that’s been written for five to six decades now on how museums are busting out of their former borders:
Sitting in a stylish hotel restaurant in Washington — he’s become known for breaking out of the museum, even for meetings — Koshalek, in his standard banker’s suit, fills a pad with Venn diagrams to get across his ideas for a Hirshhorn whose programs and effects disperse in ever wider circles.
Finally, in another predictable passage on how museums are pulling from their collections now instead of hosting expensive traveling shows:
Everyone else is taking staycations these days. Why shouldn’t our museums?
I die.
