Final Project: Current Issues
In a three-page research paper, discuss a current museum issue. What challenges and opportunities does it represent? You should include specific examples. Your bibliography must have a minimum of three sources.
Current Issues: these can include but are not limited to: museums in the time of COVID 19; the rise of the pop-up exhibition space [Wonderspaces, Meow Wolf, Museum of Ice Cream, etc.], art in the age of Instagram, controversial exhibitions and artworks [Sensation, Enola Gay, Hide/Seek, 2017 Whitney Biennial], deacessioning, Nazi era provenance, and cultural patrimony [Parthenon/Elgin Marbles, British Museum].
