Museums And The Interpretation Of Visual Culture Eilean Hoopergreenhill by Eilean Hooper-greenhill instant download after payment.

This is a multi-disciplinary study that adopts an innovative and original approach to a highly topical question, that of meaning-making in museums, focusing its attention on pedagogy and visual culture.

This work explores such questions as:

• How and why is it that museums select and arrange artefacts, shape knowledge, construct a view?
• How do museums produce values?
• How do active audiences make meaning from what they experience in museums?

This stimulating book provokes debate and discussion on these topics and puts forward the idea of a new museum - the post-museum, which will challenge the familiar modernist museum.  A must for students and professionals in the field.
