In order to understand where museums are going, first we need to understand where they've been. In this episode, we speak to Majorie Schwarzer, professor of museum studies at the University of San Francisco. Schwarzer is the author of Riches, Rivals and Radicals: 100 Years of Museums in America, which chronicles the transformation of museums in the United States. In this conversation we discuss the colonization, the professionalization of the museum field, and the power of objects.
