A criticism of the saturation of the 'curator' in art, business and everyday life
In this vibrant and original book, Balzer travels through art history and around the world to explore the cult of curation, where it began, how it came to dominate museums and galleries, and how it emerged at the turn of the millennium as a dominant mode of thinking and being. A fascinating cultural study that will appeal to art critics, scholars and historians, as well as the general reader.
