Description
Global Trends in Museum Diplomacy explores how museums have become autonomous players in cultural diplomacy. Natalia Grincheva examines the transformation of these institutions and their adoption of global strategies, such as museum franchising and corporatisation. The book focuses on the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation's bold expansion strategies and their impact on museums worldwide. It also delves into two case studies: the K11 Art Mall in Hong Kong and the International Network of Foundations of the State Hermitage Museum in Russia, highlighting alternative avenues of museum diplomacy that have emerged in authoritarian regimes. This book will be a valuable resource for those interested in contemporary museology and cultural diplomacy, offering insights into new developments in museum diplomacy.
