Hans Haacke quotes about
educational views museums
Museums are managers of consciousness. They give us an interpretation of history, of how to view the world and locate ourselves in it. They are, if you want to put it in positive terms, great educational institutions. If you want to put it in negative terms, they are propaganda machines.
photography tasks use
Whenever the medium of photography is useful for a particular task, I use it. If another medium is more suitable I use that.
interesting effort corporations
A liberal public is interesting to have as an audience. It is for that very reason that corporations make such an effort to ally themselves with cultural institutions.
