Museums and Communities
This volume presents seventeen essays critically reflecting on the collaborative work of the contemporary ethnographic museum with diverse communities. It invites the reader to think about the roles and values of museums internationally, particularly the wide range of creative approaches that can progress dialogue and intercultural understanding in an age of migration that is marked by division and distrust. Against a troubling global background of prejudice and misunderstanding, where elections are increasingly returning right-wing governments, this timely book considers the power of an inclusive and transformative museum space, specifically the movements from static sites where knowledge is transmitted to passive audiences towards potential contact zones where diverse community voices and visibilities are raised and new knowledge(s) actively constructed.
Arts Leadership in Contemporary Contexts
This book explores and critiques different aspects of arts leadership within contemporary contexts. While this is an exploration of ways arts leadership is understood, interpreted and practiced, it is also an acknowledgement of a changing cultural and economic paradigm. Understanding the broader environment for the arts is therefore part of the leadership imperative. This book examines aspects such as individual versus collective leadership, gender, creativity and the influences of stakeholders and culture. While the book provides a theoretical and critical understanding of arts leadership, it also gives examples of arts leadership in practice.
Repräsentation - Partizipation - Zugänglichkeit
Das Thema der gesellschaftlichen Einbindung, der gesellschaftlichen Rolle und Relevanz von Museen ist von hoher Aktualität für die museumstheoretische und -praktische Diskussion. Julia Büchel diskutiert die Entstehung, Begründung und Prinzipien der Forderungen nach gesellschaftlicher Einbindung und nimmt eine systematische Analyse an drei Fallstudien vor, womit ihr ein Beitrag zur Annäherung von Theorie und Praxis im Ausstellungswesen gelingt. Die Untersuchung ermöglicht eine Systematisierung von Ausstellungsanalysen und -betrachtungen und besitzt darüber hinaus das Potenzial, die Forderung nach der gesellschaftlichen Öffnung und Relevanz der Institutionen zu unterstützen. Sie diskutiert Vorschläge für mögliche neue Formate und skizziert das Potenzial der Digitalisierung.
