«Je voudrais passionnément que Paris possède un centre culturel [...] qui soit à la fois un musée et un centre de création où les arts plastiques voisineraient avec la musique, le cinéma, les livres, la recherche audiovisuelle.

[...] Tout cela coûte cher [...] Mais [...] si l'objectif est atteint, ce sera une réussite sans précédent.» Lorsque Georges Pompidou livre ces mots au Monde en 1972, sa décision est prise depuis 1969. Et malgré les années de vives polémiques qui s'ensuivent - sur sa nécessité même, sur le lieu choisi, le plateau Beaubourg, sur son architecture aux allure de «raffinerie» , le Centre Pompidou ouvre ses portes le 1er février 1977. Aussitôt, le public s'y presse un masse, découvrant sa désormais incontournable BPI, son CCI, Ircam et ses recherches acoustiques la richesse clé son musée, le Mnam et ses mémorables expositions, un calendrier quotidien de spectacles, de colloques de conférences, de rencontres. C'est à l'histoire de ces trente «années Beaubourg» que nous convie Germain Viatte, trente ans d'une activité culturelle sans précédent, dont le public ne saurait aujourd'hui se passer.

Summary:
Has corporate business overtaken the art world? It's no secret that art and business have always mixed, but their relationship today sparks more questions than ever. "Museum, inc." describes the new art conglomerates from an insider's perspective, probing how their roots run deep into corporate culture. Paul Werner draws on his nine years at the Guggenheim Museum to reveal that contemporary art museums have not broken radically with the past, as often claimed. Rather, Werner observes, they are the logical outcome of the evolution of cultural institutions rooted in the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, the colonial expansion of the liberal nation-state, and the rhetoric of democracy. Werner critically analyzes today's art institutions and reframes the public's accepted view of them, exposing how their apparent success belies the troubling forces operating within them. He ultimately argues that the art museum we know and love may have already run its course. An engaging discourse structured as an informal gallery talk, "Museum, inc." is a thought-provoking and passionate polemic that offers ideas for a new, more democratic museum.

Summary:
Les musées français ont été largement renouvelés et remodelés, voire reconstruits, depuis une génération : ils suscitent aujourd’hui un attachement unanime de la part d’un public de plus en plus nombreux. Mais cette mutation spectaculaire a souvent conduit à célébrer les progrès accomplis au détriment de la mémoire des lieux et des hommes. Dans son moment fondateur, en rupture avec le secret des collections particulières, le musée a voulu illustrer l’utilité publique de l’art et du savoir. Du XIXe siècle au XXe siècle, entre bureaux parisiens et conservateurs locaux, une institutionnalisation décisive s’accomplit au service, selon les cas, des propagandes républicaines ou monarchiques. Les musées attestent du goût français, mettent en scène la profondeur historique de la nation, et participent à la construction d’identités collectives. La fin du XXe siècle voit surgir un nouveau modèle d’établissement, qui place les publics au centre de ses préoccupations et contribue au développement culturel comme à la définition d’un patrimoine. Ces deux siècles ont connu de nombreux conflits de musées, la disparition de certains, la reconversion radicale d’autres, et, en guise d’innovations, quelques déménagements de collections. Loin d’une image stéréotypée de l’institution, l’auteur montre combien son histoire, dans ses rencontres plus ou moins réussies avec les visiteurs, témoigne d’engagements politiques et sociaux, autant que d’évolutions professionnelles et de configurations disciplinaires.
