Depuis 40 ans, la France connaît un boom des musées et des expositions blockbusters qui va de pair avec un accroissement continu de la fréquentation des publics. Les défis et les enjeux sont grands pour les musées aujourd'hui, dans un contexte où les logiques marchandes sont toujours plus poussées. Or, les musées restent avant tout des lieux de diffusion de la connaissance qui réinventent continuellement leurs formes et leurs supports de médiation. Multimédias, cartels, audioguides ou fascicules d'aide à la visite peuplent l'espace muséal et façonnent le discours muséographique, qui n'est au fond que l'expression d'un point de vue sur une question (d'art, de société, scientifique) et une manière d'accompagner les visiteurs dans leur exploration des collections. « Les musées sont-ils condamnés à séduire ? Et autres écrits muséologiques » est un recueil de textes de Daniel Jacobi faisant l'inventaire de 40 ans de recherche.

In an era of, let's call it, “boutique” art shows, the issue seems about as relevant as Diet Coke. But if anything, Hans is the Real Thing. Hans is Coca-Cola. In this book you'll find personal, anecdotal remarks on HUO's character, republished texts, and portraits (by artists including Alex Katz) that give context to the questions that frame the book: “Who is HUO?” and “What does HUO do?” More so, “What has he done?” If the art world were to seek out a supreme leader who was benevolent, kind, and fair, HUO would be it.
