Memorias Del Arte, Javier Viar

Indeed, Dana’s ideal museum would be one greatest fitted to lively and vigorous use by the average citizen, positioned near the center of their day by day motion. In addition, Dana’s conception of the perfect museum included a wider variety of objects than the traditional art museum, including industrial instruments and handicrafts that encourage creativeness in areas historically thought of mundane.
