Strategies Of Display: Museum Presentation In Nineteenth- And Twentieth-century Visual Culture
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
"Taking the remarkable display history at the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam as a point of depature, it reflects on the history of presentation in museums in Western Europe and North America. Its numerous illustrations present a parallel history of museum presentation in pictures. ... This book is unique in its approach to museum presentation as a part of visual culture. Drawing upon ideas developed in film studies, it proceeds from the assumption that the visual media confronting exhibition designers and visitors alike, constitute certain viewing habits that influence the design of museum displays." - From synopsis on rear cover. A great book for all those interested in the philosophy and design of museums and architecture. The book itself is in great condition with minimal wear.
