The Manual of Travelling Exhibitions, published by UNESCO in 1953, was a handbook on organizing touring exhibitions. It was conceived by Elodie Courter Osborne out of her work as head of the Department for Circulating Exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Aiming her book at museums and other public institutions, Courter formulated a “grammar” of exhibitions, ranging from organizational questions to reflections on exhibition design.

Re-reading the Manual of Travelling Exhibitions reproduces the page spreads of the original, annotating them in its margins and adding contemporary critical commentary. In the information the book includes (and leaves out), its design and the photographic logic of its images, the manual now reads like the manifesto of a modernity whose continuity was still unbroken in the immediate postwar period.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Das 1953 von der UNESCO herausgegebene Manual of Travelling Exhibitions ist ein Handbuch zur Organisation von Wanderausstellungen. An Museen und andere öffentliche Institutionen gerichtet, formuliert es eine Grammatik des Ausstellens: von organisatorischen Fragen bis zum Ausstellungsdesign. Das 'Manual' liest sich aus heutiger Sicht wie ein Manifest einer noch ungebrochenen Moderne der unmittelbaren Nachkriegszeit. Ein umfangreich kommentierter Reprint des Manual of Travelling Exhibitions soll zum einen die historische Quelle kontextualisieren und kritisch hinterfragen, zum anderen verschiedene Formen der Aktualisierung aufzeigen. Dabei sind die Inhalte des 'Manual' ebenso bedeutsam wie seine immanenten Fehlstellen, die Buchgestaltung oder die fotografische Logik der Abbildungen. Seller Inventory # 9783959051361
