Abstract
Met lit. opg. A collection of essays and speeches written since 1971 and updated where necessary. In the first section attention is given to the present day situation of the American museums : finances, management o.a. The second section is on museums and the law. In the third and final section the ways in which the visual arts themselves have become linked to legal considerations that affect the rights of artists and private collectors are discussed.
