Reviews

A must-read publication for museum professionals and advocates, Dimensions of Curation: Considering Competing Values for Intentional Exhibition Practices offers a critical and dynamic approach to the assessment of curatorial practice. Villeneuve and Love demonstrate a unique understanding of the nuanced relationships that drive and govern cultural institutions. Rather than presenting a one-size-fits-all narrative, featured essays - from an impressively diverse range of practitioners, scholars, and emerging professionals - illustrate the variety of institutional and communal considerations shaping exhibition development in the twenty first century. --Keidra Daniels Navaroli, McKnight Doctoral Fellow, Texts and Technology PhD Program at the University of Central Florida, board member of Association of Academic Museums and Galleries, board of directors for Surface Design Association
