_a"This book looks at some of the political controversies that have roiled art museums in recent years and made cultural institutions into targets of protest. Laura Raicovich is a prominent curator and museum director who resigned in 2018 as director of the Queens Museum after a confrontation with the museum's board, which she describes in the introduction to the book. She goes on to analyze some of the biggest flashpoints in the museum wars of recent years-the Sackler funding controversy, protests over racism and dirty money at the Whitney Museum, labor battles at multiple institutions-and she argues that museums have been operating under an ideological notion of "neutrality" that limits what they can be-and what they must become"-- _cProvided by publisher. |
