Because such art has not yet withstood the test of time, it defies the traditional understanding of the art museum as an institution that collects and displays works of long-established aesthetic and historical value. By acquiring such art, museums gamble on the future. In addition, new technologies and alternative conceptions of the artwork have created special problems of conservation, while social, political, and aesthetic changes have generated new categories of works to be collected. Following Bruce Altshuler's introduction on the European and American history of museum collecting of art by living artists, the book comprises newly commissioned essays by twelve distinguished curators representing a wide range of museums. First considered are general issues including the acquisition process, and collecting by universal survey museums and museums that focus on modern and contemporary art. Following are groups of essays that address collecting in particular media, including prints and drawings, new (digital) media, and film and video; and national- and ethnic-specific collecting (contemporary art from Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and African-American art). The closing essay examines the conservation problems created by contemporary works--for example, what is to be done when deterioration is the artist's intent? The contributors are Christophe Cherix, Vishakha N. Desai, Steve Dietz, Howard N. Fox, Chrissie Iles and Henriette Huldisch, Pamela McClusky, Gabriel Pérez-Barreiro, Lowery Stokes Sims, Robert Storr, Jeffrey Weiss, and Glenn Wharton. 606 $aArt, Modern$y20th century$xCollectors and collecting$zUnited States 606 $aArt, Modern$y21st century$xCollectors and collecting$zUnited States 606 $aArt museums$xCollection management$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArt, Modern$xCollectors and collecting 615 0$aArt, Modern$xCollectors and collecting 615 0$aArt museums$xCollection management 676 $a708.13/09/051 701 $aAltshuler$b Bruce$01053983 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453738303321 996 $aCollecting the new$92486264 997 $aUNINA LEADER 07098nam 2200685 a 450 001 9910959265303321 005 20251116181716.0 010 $a1-61470-131-8 035 $a(CKB)2550000001042144 035 $a(EBL)3019442 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000854174 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12419404 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000854174 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10902266 035 $a(PQKB)10022443 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3019442 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3019442 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10671007 035 $a(OCoLC)828869736 035 $a(BIP)34568732 035 $a(BIP)34568740 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001042144 100 $a20110511d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aAquatic animals $ebiology, habitats and threats /$fDavid L.
