Samenvatting
Twenty-nine recent essays includes reflections on the special qualities of art museums, an investigation into the relationship of current copyright law to the visual arts, a detailed consideration of how the museums and legal sytem of the United States have coped with the problem of Nazi-era art. Museums matter, according to Weil, because they have the potential to kindle individual ambition, to strengthen community ties, to stimulate inquiry, to impart knowledge and to provide aesthetic experience. |
