Résumé:
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.

Résumé:
Les musées sont devenus en une génération l’une des institutions culturelles les mieux considérées et les plus fréquentées à travers le monde. La préoccupation des publics, désormais centrale, illustre une politique de développement culturel tandis que la multiplication des collections nourrit une redéfinition des patrimoines. L’organisation des établissements, davantage professionnelle, répond à des exigences politiques et sociales, mais aussi à des contraintes éthiques et communicationnelles inédites ; en particulier, les impératifs de la médiation et de l’exposition entraînent l’apparition de nouveaux métiers. L’analyse de l’institution s’inscrit au croisement de l’anthropologie de la culture, de la sociologie du travail ou des organisations, et de l’histoire des objets.

Résumé:
When the gates of the 1964–1965 New York World’s Fair swung open on April 24, 1964, the first of more than 51 million lucky visitors entered, ready to witness the cutting edge of worldwide technology and progress. Faced with a disappointing lack of foreign participants due to political contention, the fair instead showcased the best of American industry and science. While multimillion-dollar pavilions predicted colonies on the moon and hotels under the ocean, other forecasts, such as the promises of computer technology, have surpassed even the most optimistic predictions of the fair. The 1964–1965 New York World’s Fair: Creation and Legacy uses rare, previously unpublished photographs to examine the creation of the fair and the legacies left behind for future generations. Bill Cotter and Bill Young, authors of The 1964–1965 New York World’s Fair, they have contributed to numerous other books, magazine articles, and documentaries on the fair. They also host two popular Web sites devoted to the study and appreciation of this once-in-a-lifetime event.
