KARP, IVAN / LAVINE, STEVEN, ed. . Exhibiting cultures: the poetics and politics of museum display. Edited by Ivan Karp and Steven D. Lavine. Washington: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1991, later printing number line ending in 4, x, 468pp., . "Throwing open to debate the practices of museums, galleries, and festivals, Exhibiting Cultures probes the often politically charged relationships among aesthetics, contexts, and implicit assumptions that govern how cultural differences and art objects are displayed. This innovative volume brings together museum directors and curators, art historians, anthropologists, folklorists, and historians to examine how diverse settings have appealed to audiences and represented the intentions and cultures of the makers of objects. The essays address such major issues in the politics of culture as how the learned experience of everyday life is used to make exhibitions comprehensible, what happens to minority and exotic arts when they are assimilated into the hegemonic context of the "great" museums, and why ethnographic museums have been neglected in an age of museum expansion. Based on a landmark conference sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution and the Rockefeller Foundation, the book comprises twenty-seven essays by eminent scholars and museum professionals, including Svetlana Alpers, Michael Baxandall, James Boon, James Clifford, B.N. Goswamy, Stephen Greenblatt, Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett, Jane Livingston, Dawson Munjeri, Susan Vogel, Masao Yamaguchi, and Tomas Ybarra-Frausto." - CONTENTS: Introduction: Museums and Multiculturalism / Steven D.
