Reviews
An original empirical investigation of the problems of cultural infrastructural projects that asks uncomfortable questions, and provides effective answers to them, for students, academics and practitioners alike. Clive Gray, Associate Professor, Centre for Cultural Policy Studies, University of Warwick, UK An important landmark in our reflection on the role and place of cultural facilities in the development of a rich, diverse and above all sustainable cultural landscape. By combining solid statistical data with a challenging analysis of qualitative aspects such as leadership, mission statements or political context, and by confronting success stories with real disasters in various fields (ranging from centers for performing arts to museums), this book succeeds in offering an indispensable tool for the creation or the implementation of cultural facilities. (Jan Baetens, University of Leuven)
