Abstract (en)

Argues for changes in traditional museum display practice with its emphasis on art history, classification, and chronological arrangement. Describes various ways of presenting art in museums which promote viewer appreciation and understanding of art, noting especially the value of thematic special exhibitions and presentations of art shown in relation to its larger social and cultural context. Cites examples of such approaches in museums around the world, 1970s-1980s.
