Buckingham Palace Shocks with Salon-Style Hang

Buckingham Palace’s recent salon-style rehang, nearly doubling the number of works in its Picture Gallery, signals a fascinating shift in institutional display.

This openness can pave the way for more inclusive narratives and diverse artistic voices to be celebrated. — Source: Artforum
