What makes a great exhibition?
Editor: Paula Marincola
Philadelphia, 2006


Robert Storr: Show and Tell

"Si la gente lee las cartelas en vez de ver la obra, es la culpa del organizador de la exposición, no la de la gente; el organizador ha hecho las cartelas demasiado atrayentes.

"Todos ya hemos visto a gente en los museos yendo de una cartela a otra sin siquiera echar un vistazo a la obra.

"Los curadores tienen que hacer todo lo posible para evitar esta coreografía cuya resultado es la acumulación de información y la destrucción del arte."


"If people read labels instead of looking at the work, it is the exhibition-maker’s fault, not theirs; he or she has made the labels too prominent, too plentiful.

"We have all witnessed people in museums running up to read a label before stepping back to look at the work beside which it has been affixed, and then move to the next object before ever really seeing the first one for themselves.

"Curators should do everything to interrupt this information-gathering, art-obliterating choreography."
