Exhibition As Performance (And Vice Versa) At France’s Musée de la Danse

“The rules for Expo Zéro were simple: there would be no exhibition as such, no objects or costumes, scores or scripts, videos or photographs. There wouldn’t even be furniture. Instead, visitors would navigate the museum to find the participants adrift in the space, shifting from improvised interactions with each other and the public.”

Redecorating At The Frick Collection’s Gilded Age Mansion

“In the summer, after the [museum’s] Living Hall was refurbished – its oak paneling waxed to a honeyed sheen; the ceiling repainted and the rug cleaned – the nearby East Gallery suddenly looked a bit down at the heels. To complicate matters, the institution had received a loan of two late-15th-century Florentine panels that had to be displayed somewhere.”
