curators and collections

You are going to listen to part of a lecture at an evening class given to members of the general public about the ‘crisis’ in modern museums.

Look at these topics and decide which ones you think the lecturer will mention.

Listen to the lecture again and complete the lecture notes that a student made.

Think about it:

Do you go to museums and exhibitions regularly?

Does the curator's job sound interesting to you?  

Is what you have heard and read here relevant to your country or does it seem very different?

If your work involved planning or organising exhibitions and collections, what would you like to see in your town?
