"Do not ask me who I am and do not ask me to remain the same: leave it to our bureaucrats and our police to see that our papers are in order. At least spare us their morality when we write." Michel Foucault

There is no right or wrong way to visit a museum
Aqui está o velho dilema que Serota também aponta: experiência ou interpretação? Experiência, claro. Mas pergunto: é possível que a experiência seja também uma forma de interpretação?
“There is no right or wrong way to visit a museum. The most important rule you should keep in mind as you go through the front door is to follow your own instincts. Be prepared to find what excites you, to enjoy what delights your heart and mind, perhaps to have esthetic experiences you will never forget. You have a feast in store for you and you should make the most of it. Stay as long or as short a time as you will, but do your best at all times to let the work of art speak directly to you with a minimum of interference or distraction.” (David Finn, How to visit a Museum, New York, Abrams, 1985)
