Museyrooms: Intersections of People and Art in Museums

By Mikesch W Muecke and Mikesch Muecke

A collection of color photographs that show mobile people in static spaces (museums). The book contains more than 300 images of people and art intersecting formally and informally in museum spaces around the world. Many of the blurred images create impromptu relationships between the museum visitors and the art work. The title of the book acknowledges the single instance of the word in the first chapter of James Joyce's Finnegans Wake , and it is also a reference to Jennifer Bloomer's Assemblage 5 article "In the Museyroom"-a literary journey into John Soane's own house museum, referenced obliquely, like everything else in Joyce's work-that was published in 1988.
