Abstract
Avec Critical Practice: Artists, Museums, Ethics publié l’année dernière, Janet Marstine travaille à nouveau dans le cadre d’une compréhension éthique du musée comme promoteur de changement social, mais son objet de recherche est l’examen de l’apport muséologique d’interventions artistiques qualifiées de « pratiques critiques » (critical practices) dans la transformation structurelle des pratiques et discours des musées. Il s’agit ainsi de saisir, au travers de cinq chapitres, différents aspects des processus de réconciliation d’un musée avec ses publics, processus qui caractérisent le musée dit « discursif » (discursive museum).
