Global and World Art in the Practice of the University Museum
provides new thinking on exhibitions of global art and world art in
relation to university museums. Taking The Fowler Museum at UCLA,
USA, as its central subject, this edited collection traces how
university museum practices have expanded the understanding of the
'art object' in recent years. It is argued that the meaning of
cultural objects infused with the heritage and identity of 'global
culture' has been developed substantially through the innovative
approaches of university scholars, museum curators, and
administrators since the latter part of the twentieth century.
Through exploring the ways in which universities and their museums
have overseen changes in the global context for art, this edited
collection initiates a larger dialogue and inquiry into the value
and contribution of the empirical model. The volume includes a
full-colour photo essay by Marla C. Berns on the Fowler Museum's
'Fowler at Fifty' project, as well as contributions from Donald
Preziosi, Catherine M. Cole, Lothar von Falkenhausen, Claire
Farago, Selma Holo, and Gemma Rodrigues. It is important reading
for professionals, scholars and advanced students alike.
