Summary:
The author, Gerhard Mack, explores the architecture of each individual museum in detail, and highlights current tendencies in museum building in his seminal essay "Time Rediscovered". This is complemented by an introduction by Harald Szeemann, who as curator of the Kunsthaus in Zürich, was appointed director for Fine Arts at the Biennale in Venice this year. The museums examined in this book are Kunsthaus in Bregenz, the Museum of the Beyeler Fondation near Basel, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, the Getty Center in Los Angeles and the Moderna und Arkitektur Museet in Stockholm all opening within a year of one another. The Tate Gallery of Modern Art which is being built by Herzog & de Meuron in a former power station on the Thames in London is to be completed in May 1999. Conversations with the architects Frank O. Gehry, Jacques Herzog, Richard Meier, Rafael Moneo, Jean Nouvel, Renzo Piano and Peter Zumthor reveal the wide spectrum of design concerns in contemporary museum design and building. In the Pavilion at the Beyeler Fondation, the interaction of nature, light and the presentation of art is an impressive experience. Jean Nouvel perceives the museum as a public place, bringing the various areas of 'urban chaos' into contact with each other. A total of eight projects are presented.

Summary:
This book is split into six chapters that proceed more or less chronologically. It begins by exploring the origins of the museum both as a cultural phenomenon and as a particular type of space. Central to this, as the first chapter explores, was the ‘princely collection’, that is, collections of painting and sculpture assembled by royalty and the nobility across Europe that began during the Renaissance and continued during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Although varying both in extent and artistic focus, the motivations driving the establishing of these early collections generally derived from their creators’ desires to fashion learned and enlightened images of themselves and their courts. With some exceptions, admission to these collections was limited to the social elite and those that they were trying to impress. The idea that collections should be open to a wider social group began to emerge during the eighteenth century with the advent of the wunderkammer, or cabinet of curiosities. These contained not just works of art, but all manner of objects, from natural history specimens to religious or cult artefacts, and everything in between.
