Fascinating examination of the museums unconventional role in contemporary art....Highly recommended.Library Journal This book examines one of the most important and intriguing themes in art today: the often obsessive relationship between artist and museum.From Marcel Duchamps Portable Museum (Bote en valise) of the early 1940s to Damien Hirsts distinctive use of vitrine displays in the 1990s, the artists of the past seventy years have often turned their attentionboth creatively and criticallyto a reappraisal of the ideas and systems of classification traditionally associated with curatorship and display.The works included here, accompanied by quotations from the writings of individual artists, offer a wideranging coverage of projects by established and emerging figures alike, including Christian Boltanski, Sophie Calle, Tracey Emin, Hans Haacke, Donald Judd, Olafur Eliasson, and Takashi Murakami. The book has been updated to include recent projects that make use of grand architectural spaces within the museum, as well as those that explore offsite locations and the internet. 239 color, 51 b&w illustrations
