What Is the Value of a Museum?

Whitechapel Gallery director Gilane Tawadros is strategically partnering with an economist to redefine the 'public value' of art institutions. This initiative signals a critical shift, moving beyond traditional exhibition models to articulate art's broader societal impact. For emerging women artists, this presents a vital opportunity. As institutions re-evaluate their contributions, it encourages you to consider your own work's public resonance. Understanding this evolving definition of value can empower you to strategically position your art, highlighting its potential for community engagement, dialogue, and social change. Aligning your practice with these shifting priorities can open new pathways for collaboration and support. — Source: Artnet News
