5.0 out of 5 stars
A must read,
By La chichimeca (Mexique) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Museum, Inc.: Inside the Global Art World (Paperback)
First of all, this book is funny. The stream of consciousness, thinking aloud style of Paul Werner is terribly amusing and extremely entertaining which puts it in a class of its own. Paul Werner does not pontificate, does not condescend... he just dissects with great wit and surgical precision the politics of a privately owned museum in today s world.. We understand how some museums are more obsessed with selling their brand name to cities in need of tourist attraction than showing us the gullible public works of art worth seeing. Anybody who thinks something is amiss in the art world must read it. His description of being a tour guide to hairy 200 pound lifelong bikers in the now infamous Motorcycle exhibition seems straight out of a Chaplin movie...
