Résumé:
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. This holistic approach will be immensely helpful to museums in meeting the needs and expectations of visitors and building their audience base. Because "The engaging museum" offers a set of principles that can be adapted to any museum in any location, it will be a valuable resource for institutions of every shape and size.

Résumé:
''Utopian display, geopolitical curating'' brings together curatorial experiences that have matured over the past 30 years in various geopolitical contexts – from Africa to China, India to Latin America, and the Middle East to the post-Soviet regions. Featuring experimental voices in contemporary curatorial research, more than a dozen authors from different generations look with scepticism at both the effects of globalisation within today’s artistic scene and the latest premises of so-called de-globalisation. Because, despite everything, the current model of art continues to be very similar to that of an institution capable of determining the integration or exclusion of minorities as a majoritarian measure.

A magazine focusing on the architectural process, ''DOMa'' aims to revisit architecture in a more informed and elaborate manner, to understand and criticise it from within. These days we are often pushed to simply consume the final architectural product. The creative process is frequently overlooked, and only too seldom recorded in the media. With the launch of its first issue, this Athens-based independent institution for contemporary architecture looks at OE House by Fake Industries Architectural Agonism and Aixopluc, MAIO’s 22 Dwellings Housing Block in Barcelona, Hunters Point Library by Steven Holl Architects, and the subtle mutations of the House with Courtyard by MOS.

Résumé:
In 1933, the Banff School was established as a summer outreach program of the University of Alberta, offering a single course in drama. Since then, it has become a renowned cultural destination and educational institution, today known as the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. As PearlAnn Reichwein and Karen Wall recount in this engaging history, over its first four decades the school produced and circulated ideals of culture and liberal democratic citizenship that were intrinsic to the development of modern Canada. 'Uplift' traces the role of the school in shaping arts and cultural education, as reflected in its array of interests from the artistic to the political, economic, and ideological.

Résumé:
"The Bauhaus and Czechoslovakia 1919–1938" looks at the Central European context and legacy of Germany’s legendary Bauhaus school. This center of avant-garde learning, whose teachers included artists such as Walter Gropius, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Josef Albers, László Moholy-Nagy and Adolf Meyer, was a place of meeting and mutual inspiration for artists, designers and architects. Czech students brought their own original ideas and progressive techniques into this heady atmosphere. This volume, the result of years of scholarly research by Czech art historian Markéta Svobodová, is the first publication to survey the contributions of Czech students in this creative environment, offering a student-centered perspective on the famed institution.

Résumé:
Photographer Armin Linke captures the library in this series of images, depicting the interior spaces of this time-honoured cultural institution as an expression of its commitment to stimulating questioning and discovery. He not only looks at the grandly ornamented, open spaces of academic study found within several Parisian institutions (such as Science Po, the Louvre, and C2RMF), but also the lecture halls, administrative offices, and behind-the-scenes storage and hidden technical functions. Besides Linke’s thoughtfully banal images, the book includes an essay by Bruno Latour, an interview with Linke, and a conversation about the project’s initiation and background. Signed and numbered edition with two original photographs.

Outrageous and violent, SCUM Manifesto was widely lambasted when it first appeared in 1968. Valerie Solanas, the woman who shot Andy Warhol, self-published the book just before she became a notorious household name and was confined to a mental institution.

Résumé:
Outrageous and violent, SCUM Manifesto was widely lambasted when it first appeared in 1968. Valerie Solanas, the woman who shot Andy Warhol, self-published the book just before she became a notorious household name and was confined to a mental institution. But for all its vitriol, it is impossible to dismiss as the mere rantings of a lesbian lunatic. In fact, the work has proved prescient, not only as a radical feminist analysis light years ahead of its time—predicting artificial insemination, ATMs, a feminist uprising against underrepresentation in the arts—but also as a stunning testament to the rage of an abused and destitute woman.
