Originating from a symposium at the MAK in Vienna, this volume compiles critical perspectives from philosophers, theorists, and artists regarding the museum as a conceptual structure. The contributors examine the tension between traditional collection practices and the modern trend toward market-driven, large-scale exhibitions. By challenging the rise of the entertainment-oriented institution, the text advocates for a rigorous curatorial policy that prioritizes intellectual concentration over commercial quantity.
