Here in this second edition, updating the original by Gerald George and Cindy Sherrell-Leo, you will find out in straightforward language what a museum is--philosophically and historically--some pros and cons of establishing your museum, up-to-date resource lists, and good basic advice on all aspects of museums from the choice of a building through collections care, registration, exhibitions, conservation, staffing, financial management, and fund raising.
From Mona Lisa's smile to Napoleon's plundered treasures and I. M. Pei's controversial glass pyramid, this book presents the world's greatest museum, not as the sum of its masterpieces, but as a living, changing institution that throws a high beam on the artistic, political, and social history of the Western World. 650 full-color photos.
Fully updated to include the many changes that have occurred in the last decade, this second edition provides a basic guide to all aspects of museum work and staff experience from museum organization, through collections management and conservation, to audience development and education.
