The Museum Is Not Enough (n.10–14)
This book, co-published by Lenz Press and the Canadian Centre for Architecture, edited by Giovanna Borasi, Albert Ferré, Francesco Garutti, Jayne Kelley, is the follow-up of a first volume published in 2019 that built on years of thematic investigations, the book focuses on how the institution works out and on these questions by rethinking its tools and how it relates to others.
The Museum Is Not Enough no. 10–14 gathers conversations among curators, artists, academics, and architects on how institutions engage multiple contexts, objects, and perspectives: reflecting on strategies to unlearn and decentre established ways of seeing and doing; looking closely at how to describe and document archival sources while interrogating the stakes, and often the harm, in separating cultural objects from their context; questioning the relationship between institutions and “the public”; and discussing curatorial tools—and particularly film—that collapse research and display, observation and action, here and there.
