Publisher Synopsis
Douglas Ord's book constitutes a major contribution to the field of museum studies in Canada and a landmark in publishing on the topic. Ord provides the necessary, rich historical context through which the new building can be grasped and he manages to explain why the form of the building is what it is. In this, the book is entirely original and enormously valuable. Here is a book with the potential of changing Canadian art history forever and becoming one of a handful of essential documents in the field. Reesa Greenberg, editor of Thinking About Exhibitions Read more...
