Résumé:
Photographer Annie Leibowitz collaborates with American Express on a portrait exhibition. Absolut Vodka engages artists for their advertisements. Philip Morris mounts an "Arts Against Hunger" campaign in partnership with prominent museums. Is it art or PR, and where is the line that separates the artistic from the corporate? According to Mark Rectanus, that line has blurred. These mergers of art, business, and museums, he argues, are examples of the worldwide privatization of cultural funding. In Culture Incorporated, Rectanus calls for full disclosure of corporate involvement in cultural events and examines how corporations, art institutions, and foundations are reshaping the cultural terrain. In turn, he also shows how that ground is destabilized by artists subverting these same institutions to create a heightened awareness of critical alternatives. Rectanus exposes how sponsorship helps maintain social legitimation in a time when corporations are the target of significant criticism. He provides wide-ranging examples of artists and institutions grappling with corporate sponsorship, including artists' collaboration with sponsors, corporate sponsorship of museum exhibitions, festivals, and rock concerts, and cybersponsoring. Throughout, Rectanus analyzes the convergence of cultural institutions with global corporate politics and its influence on our culture and our communities. Mark W. Rectanus is professor of German at Iowa State University.

Résumé:
"Prenant appui sur les politiques institutionnelles, l'auteur montre comment le musée virtuel résulte en fait d'une interprétation du support numérique qui en hypostasie la portée spectaculaire au lieu d'en favoriser l'appréhension documentaire. Le musée virtuel réaliserait ainsi la parfaite concrétisation des objectifs économiques et éducatifs du musée, en parfaite résonnance avec le régime d'industrialisation culturelle qui règle la fréquentation du patrimoine. Mais au-delà, c'est bien du devenir de l'institution muséale dont il est question. Plutôt que de prédire la disparition de l'institution au profit de son avatar virtuel, on choisit d'ancrer ici l'interrogation dans l'histoire des relations qui unissent l'oeuvre d'art et le musée, depuis deux siècles. L'extrême plasticité du musée est mise à jour : ne serait-il pas apte à conserver et légitimer les propositions d'un art numérique aussi délocalisé soit-il? Déjà rôdé à l'absorption d'oeuvres reproductibles, de traces ou d'intentions, le musée d'art contemporain déjoue perpétuellement sa fin prévisible. Cette fois-ci la métamorphose le porte du côté de la médiathèque. Le devenir du musée se nourrit d'une perception essentiellement documentaire du patrimoine artistique. Incorporé aux industries de la mémoire, le musée nous projette désormais dans un passé actualisé et un présent pérenne."

This book guides museums on how to create the highest quality experience possible for their visitors. Creating an environment that supports visitor engagement with collections means examining every stage of the visit, from the initial impetus to go to a particular institution, to front-of-house management, interpretive approach and qualitative analysis afterwards.
