Revisiting Museums of Influence presents 50 portraits of a range of
European museums that have made striking innovations in public
quality over the past 40 years. In so doing, the book demonstrates
that excellence can be found in museums no matter their subject
matter, scale, or source of funding. Written by leading
professionals in the field of museology, who have acted as judges
for the European Museum of the Year Award, the portraits describe
museums that had, or should have had, an influence on other museums
around the world. The portraits aim to capture the moment when this
potential was identified, and the introduction will locate the
institutions in the wider history of museums in Europe over the
period, as well as drawing out common themes of change and
innovation that unite the portraits. Providing many very diverse
portraits, Revisiting Museums of Influence captures the immense
capacity of the museum to respond to changing societal needs. As a
result, the book will be essential reading for students of
museology and museum professionals around the world in shaping the
museums they wish to create. Scholars and students of art history,
archaeology, ethnography, anthropology, cultural and visual
studies, architecture, memory studies and history will also find
much to interest them.
