While there have been shifts to offer more trainee opportunities, students who want to work in museums, for example, are still expected to show commitment with volunteering, and to be able to undertake absurdly expensive (and usually theoretical rather than practical) postgraduate degrees for entry-level jobs.

SAME.

The way we look at things is never objective: it is shaped by who we are, the experiences we bring with us, the ways we have been taught to see the world. No two people look at art in exactly the same way.

I had just spent three years on an art history degree that overwhelmingly ignored the colonial and imperial history that created the museums and galleries we were studying, and where the only module that considered the art of the British Empire was optional.

Yeah, I spent 5 years in art history degree (+4 in school) and no one talked about these themes apart from the museology professor in the LAST semester.

What does the museum feel like? Is it welcoming and warm, or hostile and cold? Are the staff around you educators, or security guards?

Che fai, non lo leggi il libro della prof? ❤️
