?Preview of the Speech:
?Exhibiting American Art in the Twenty-First Century Over the last two decades American art museums have spent millions on new or renovated American wings and galleries, and on high-priced acquisitions. Between 1995 and 2009, museums in Newark, Brooklyn,Chicago, Washington, Detroit, San Francisco, and Kansas City have expanded, refurbished, and reinstalled their American collections. In 2010, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, inaugurated a spectacular fourstorey glass box, designed by Norman Foster and Partners, in which to display 5000 objects under the heading “Art of the Americas.” In 2011, the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, housed in an elaborate set of pavilions designed by Moishe Safdie and located in Bentonville, Arkansas, made its long-awaited debut. In 2012, New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art launched with enormous fanfare its rebuilt and greatly expanded American Wing. Have these expansions, refurbishments and reinstallations opened new perspectives on the history of American art? To what extent have they increased the museums’ appeal to non-traditional audiences? This paper will attempt to answer these questions via a close examination of museum displays and a consideration of the ways in which scholarship in the eld of American art has inuenced museum practice.
?發(fā)言概要：?
?二十一世紀的美國藝術展覽在過去的20 年里，美國藝術博物館將數百萬資金用于翻新或建造美國之翼（注：通常為美國博物館右后側）和畫廊，以及高價收購。在1995 年到2009 年間，紐瓦克、布魯克林、芝加哥、華盛頓、底特律、舊金山以及堪薩斯市的博物館已經進行了擴建，翻新并重新布置了美國藝術品收藏區(qū)。2010 年，波士頓藝術博物館正式啟用了全玻璃的四層展館，該館由諾曼福斯特和其團隊設計，展出了5000 件以“美國藝術”標題的展品。2011 年，大家期盼已久的水晶橋美國藝術博物館正式開業(yè)，整座建筑精巧無比，展館位于阿肯色州本頓維爾市，由莫什·薩福迪設計。2012 年，紐約大都會博物館聲勢浩大的啟動了美國之翼展廳的重建工作。這些展館的擴建、重建，對展品的重新陳列是否會為美國藝術史打開全新的視角？它們到底在多大程度上提高了博物館對非傳統觀眾的吸引？本文試圖通過近距離考察博物館展品，思考美國藝術史學者影響博物館運行的方法回答上述問題。
