Synopsis

"Rise of Private Museums" explores the growing influence of privately owned art museums on the global art world. These institutions, funded by wealthy individuals, are reshaping cultural heritage, exhibition practices, and art history itself. The book highlights how the surge in private museums reflects both increased wealth concentration and a desire to shape cultural narratives.

 
Intriguingly, these museums can offer valuable public access to art, but also raise questions about accountability and potential biases in historical representation. The book examines the motivations behind the establishment of these museums, delving into the personal, financial, and social factors driving collectors.

 
It analyzes the impact on established public institutions and the art market, considering how private museums influence art market values and curatorial approaches. The approach unfolds by first introducing the phenomenon, then exploring collector motivations, analyzing the impact on the wider art world, and finally discussing the ethical considerations.

 
Ultimately, "Rise of Private Museums" offers a critical perspective on the intersection of art, wealth, and power. It avoids a simple celebration of art patronage, instead prompting a deeper understanding of the consequences and controversies surrounding private control of cultural assets. The book engages with debates on deaccessioning, the influence of private interests, and the potential for tax avoidance.

    Hollywood and MAGA don’t get along. There are plenty of right wingers who won’t even touch this book because "Hollywood" is on the cover. Meanwhile, there are plenty of snowflake leftists who are fighting back tears because they assume this book is propaganda from “orange Thanos” to take over Tinseltown. And then there’s you, the American. Conservative or liberal, you realize that Hollywood and MAGA are at war with each other and that it’s a battle worth examining. Make Hollywood Great Again navigates through 2017 – 2020’s theatrical releases examining journalism, conspiracy and the media, as well as a bevy of other topics. Filmmakers have addressed their undesired tenet in the White House through a variety of stories, mostly non-fiction. The book privileges The Post, Blackkklansman, The Front Runner, Dark Waters, Richard Jewell, and The Hunt among others.

    This program is read by the author.A darkly comic memoir about being a working creative person in a world that is growing ever more dysfunctional, by acclaimed New Yorker cartoonist and television writer Bruce Eric Kaplan In January 2022, Bruce Eric Kaplan found himself confused and upset by the state of the world and the state of his life as a television writer in Los Angeles. He started a journal to keep from going mad, which eventually became They Went Another Way.The book’s through line traces his attempt to get a television project set up in the increasingly Byzantine world of Hollywood. But as he details the project’s ups and downs, Kaplan finds himself ruminating not only on show business but also on today’s political and social issues, on old movies and TV shows and music, on his family, on his friends, on his past, on his failing heating system, and on all the dead birds thatkeep showing up in his backyard.This hilarious and surprisingly moving book is about life—about art, about love, about alienation, about connection, about ugliness and beauty, about disappointment, wonder, and hope. In short, it is about everything.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
