Museums should honor the everyday, not just the extraordinary

Title:
Музеи должны акцентировать внимание на повседневном, а не исключительном
Speaker:
Ariana Curtis
Description:

Who deserves to be in a museum? For too long, the answer has been "the extraordinary" -- those aspirational historymakers who inspire us with their successes. But those stories are limiting, says museum curator Ariana Curtis. In a visionary talk, she imagines how museums can more accurately represent history by honoring the lives of people both extraordinary and everyday, prominent and hidden -- and amplify diverse perspectives that should have always been included.
