Preview of the Speech:
The Bog and the Beast:Museums, the Nation, and the World
This paper addresses how museums in the United States are changing how they represent the nation and its place in the world in response to immigration and globalization. I focus on how Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts new Art of the Americas Wing compares to the American Identities exhibit at Brooklyn Museum. In addition to looking at how institutional factors such as curatorial interests, the nature of the collections, and each museum’s benefactors help explain these two museum's different takes on Americanness, I also look at how the cultural armature of each city, or its history, demography, and cultural policies, affect how outward or inward-looking both museums have become. Finally, I ask what it is about the style of nationalism in the United States that also influences these cultural institutions.
發言概要：
沼澤與野獸：博物館，國家和世界
本文著重表述美國藝術館正在發生的改變。研究它們是如何展示美國，如何展示美國在世界的地位，如何對移民和全球化的做出反饋的。我著重對比了波士頓藝術美術館“美國之翼新藝術展”與在布魯克林美術館進行的名為“美國身份”的展覽。除了考慮如何從管理者的利益、收藏的本質以及博物館捐助人等制度性因素來解釋這兩個博物館對美國性的不同呈現外，我還會探討兩個城市的文化防衛機制、城市歷史、人口學、文化政策等因素是如何影響這兩座博物館，使其分別成為了內向型和外向型博物館。最後，我提出的問題是：那些影響到文化制度的美國國家主義風格到底是什麼？
