In How to Visit an Art Museum Johan Idema offers a fresh perspective on the art museum. Whether first-timer or frequent visitor, the book demonstrates the sense and nonsense of museum etiquette. The typical museum behavior — “Walk slowly, but keep walking” — is seldom the most rewarding. That's why this book encourages that art presents to us by taking matters into your own hands.
Find out how museum guards can be to your advantage. Learn the rule of thumb to distinguish good from bad art. Discover how kids offer you glimpses of the world hidden behind an artwork. How to Visit an Art Museum shows you how a little courage and creativity can make your museum visit truly worthwhile. Ultimately, a museum is what you make it.
