Live from the Museum of Fear and Wonder: Lianne McTavish's Book Launch | Facebook
Lianne McTavish is professor in the Department of Art and Design at the University of Alberta.
After visiting hundreds of museums across Alberta, Lianne McTavish chronicles some of the most challenging and unexpected sites where the idea of the museum is being reshaped. The concept of the visit as a “voluntary detour” encapsulates the way visitors travel along backroads to find small-town and rural museums, as well as the agreement to turn away from standard museum scripts when they arrive.
