Hardback. Zustand: Good. ?Public institutions do not sit ?outside? society, they are the barometer of time and place. How museums and galleries open themselves up to change and engage dissenting voices is not obvious or easy, but as a recent visitor said, ?Art is an invitation to a conversation? ? so perhaps our role might be to unlock that conversation.?As the world adapts to the consequences of a global pandemic, museums continue to experience unprecedented disruption and change. At the same time, there is a growing debate and dissent over what museums are for, who they speak to and what the histories, objects and ideas they are tasked with holding reflect ? all taking place within a public sphere that feels increasingly dynamic and volatile.Taking a wide-ranging and thought-provoking look at the roles and responsibilities of some of our most well-known and best-loved public institutions, Gathering of Strangers explores the critical challenges and opportunities for the museum at this point in the twenty-first century. Moving from the historical origins of the gallery to important current debates taking place around art and public engagement, the climate emergency, race equality and decolonisation, and the value of the arts in education ? this book sets out the role of art and artists in imagining and shaping our collective future.It is also a love letter to the museum, from a sector leader who is at the forefront of the cultural conversation today. …

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Oxbow says: What could easily be a work of fiction, this book reveals the scandals of the murky world of the illicit trading of ancient treasures. Peter Watson has earned himself a reputation for exposing scandals of the art world and here he explores and exposes the key figures and networks of the illegal trade in antiquities. This is a book about illegal excavation, smuggling, obscure provenances, uncertain acquisitions, million dollar deals, theft, art works going to ground and suddenly reappearing, phone tapping, police investigations, interrogations, trials and convictions. The name of Giacomo Medici features prominently in this study, although major institutions such as the Getty Museum, the British Museum, Sotheby's and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York are not exempt. In highlighting the sheer scale of illicit activities, Peter Watson joins Dr Chris Chippindale and Dr David Gill in concluding that this is a 'commercial cesspool of greed and vanity founded on loot and filled with deceit at every level' and in the final chapter he considers what the art world needs to do to clean up its act.…
