Taken by Surprise

January 1, 2006 | Exhibitions

In this article, Janet Kamien, principal of Janet A. Kamien Museum Consulting, discusses controversial museum exhibitions. Kamien uses recent examples to argue that all controversy associated with exhibits is "situational," and these controversies usually stem from issues within the museum and staff and rarely from the actual subject matter.
