Kogler-Heimburger, S. B. "Shifting curatorial strategies for art from Latin America and Latino art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston 1956-2004." Thesis, University of Essex, 2017. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/20126/.

Abstract:
This thesis explores changing curatorial strategies at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. This is preceded by an assessment of the Museum of Modern Art’s earlier role in systematizing and defining this field throughout the 1930s and 1940s. Three exhibitions of art from Latin America and Latino art will illustrate how the MFAH contributed to shifts in this field proposing parallel and expanded readings to those first introduced at MoMA. Firstly, the Gulf-Caribbean Art Exhibition (1956) was a collaboration with the Pan American Union. This exhibition was framed by Cold War modernist approaches and a re-imagined geographical conception of the Gulf region. Secondly, Hispanic Art in the United States- Thirty Contemporary Painters and Sculptors (1987) sought to include Latino art and reflect the community in Houston within this mainstream institution. This lead to traditional museum practices emphasising the quality of artworks, while the criteria for selection was based on the ethnicity of the artists. Finally, Inverted Utopias- Avant-Garde Art in Latin America (2004) revised curatorial structures that were based upon the geographical and national survey format. Six constellations emphasising nodal connections between movements from Latin America disrupted established narratives of this field. The extensive use of archival documents further aided this historical review. I will answer how political, diplomatic, social, and art historical contexts have influenced the curation of these exhibitions and the outcomes of each. I will argue that through the location of the MFAH in the south of the United States, this institution is able to experiment with curatorial approaches and contribute to reviewed readings of art and art history in the United States.

For many years as an art educator, this researcher, has observed, the positive impact an art education program can have on a variety of different student populations. All students deserve access to a meaningful art education. It has been shown that developing brain health and looking at art is beneficial for the human mind. Scientists in collaboration with artists have recently shown, through Computed Axial Tomography (CAT scans) something that we already knew (or suspected), from our own experiences; making and looking at art is positive for human cognition. According to Professor Semir Zeki, Chair of the Neurasthenics Department at University College London: (1999, p.187). Inner Vision: An exploration of art and the brain: "What we found is when you look at art – whether it is a landscape, a still life, an abstract or a portrait – there is strong activity in that part of the brain related to pleasure. We put people in a scanner and showed them a series of paintings every ten seconds. We then measured the change in blood flow in one part of the brain. The reaction was immediate. What we found was the increase in blood flow was in proportion to how much the painting was liked. The blood flow increased for a beautiful painting just as it increases when you look at somebody you love. It tells us art induces a feel-good sensation direct to the brain." This thesis will not be examining the positive impact art has on the brain; it is referred to in order to acknowledge the fact many artists and art appreciators already know: Looking at art is a valuable thing, and art education is important for developing minds. This thesis will examine the bridge between art museum programs and marginalized student populations. These are the students who have Individualized Education Programs (IEP’s), or those for whom English is a second language and who may live in low-income urban communities. It will also examine what museum-based art education programs can provide to this population of youth. In the Wall Street Journal, as cited by (Winner, Goldstein, and Vincent-Lancrin, 2013, p.18) the former chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, Rocco Landesman offers pointed remarks when arts education comes up: "Some students don’t fit the No Child Left Behind regime and other subjects don’t inspire them. Talented but offbeat, they sulk through algebra, act up in the cafeteria, and drop out of school. The arts 'catch' them and pull them back, turning a sinking ego on the margins into a creative citizen with 'a place in society.'" Museums often provide a place for students to go and engage with art in a meaningful way that captures their imagination and engages them in learning. The emphasis of this research falls on the unusual student, the difficult learner, the student who has a learning style difference and who may never have encountered an original work of art. The purpose of this study is to report the ways in which students responded to art in a museum setting. Why art museums enjoy a reciprocal benefit from serving these students will also be examined. Art educators know that art is important for the development of creativity in students, and students’ benefit from engagement in studio art activities. Yet, most crucially, art programs are often marginalized in low-income urban communities. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, more than 95 percent of schoolaged children are attending schools that have cut art education since the recession. In low-income communities, many students have few studio art classes along their journeys through pre/K-12 public education. Those denied an art education often find themselves without the benefit of an education that includes studies about the value of culture, leaving those affected by poverty with little impetus to reach for higher educational goals. Art education programs at two museums are examined to show how their programs reach out to students from underserved communities. In particular, this study looks at the Cape Ann Museum in Gloucester and Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, both in, Massachusetts, to evaluate how to engage marginalized, urban students and retain these youth as enthusiastic lifetime museumgoers.

Full text
Abstract:

As the global pattern of severe weather intensifies, complex disaster-related appraisals are becoming increasingly more common. Post-disaster appraisals are particularly challenging due to several key factors: (1) the large number of objects in each appraisal, (2) the diversity of the objects and (3) the limited time frame for completion. Due to these complicating factors the methodologies that were once central to the structure of valuation are crumbling and new metrics are being formed to accommodate these labyrinthine post-disaster jobs. By way of a single case study undertaken post-Hurricane Sandy, this document explores the process of redesigning appraisal methodologies, of approaching uncommon historical objects found often in these now less exceptional cases, of identifying "value signifiers" for those objects and ultimately of reimagining the very core of what it means to appraise fine art.

Manzano, Raul. "Language, Community, and Translations| An Analysis of Current Multilingual Exhibition Practices among Art Museums in New York City." Thesis, Union Institute and University, 2016. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10060087.

Full text
Abstract:

This dissertation provides an analysis of current multilingual practices among art museums in New York City. This study is located within the current theoretical analysis of 1) museums as sites of cultural production and 2) the politics of language, interpretative material, and technology. This study demonstrates how new roles for museums embracing multilingual exhibitions and technology may signal new ways of learning and inclusion.

The first part is a theoretical-based approach. The second part consists of a mixed-method research design using qualitative and quantitative methods to create three different surveys: of museum staff, of the general public, and finally my observations of museum facilities and human subjects.

Multilingual exhibitions are complex and require changes at all levels in a museum's organizational structure. Access to museum resources can provide more specific data about language usage. The survey responses from 175 adults provides statistics on multilingual settings and its complexity. The survey responses from 5 museums reveals the difficulty, and benefits, of dealing with this topic. Visual observations at 36 museums indicate that visitors pay attention to interpretative material, while production cost, space, and qualified linguistic staff are concerns for museums. Technology is a breakthrough in multilingual offerings, for it can help democratize a museum's culture to build stronger cultural community connections.

Abstract:
This museum thesis project considers the challenges involved in developing engaging museum tours. The purpose of this project was to develop a fifty-minute, guided gallery tour that uses inquiry-based instruction to engage participants in dialogue and critical thinking about artworks. The tour was designed specifically for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA) in Richmond, Virginia, using artworks selected from the museum’s twenty-first-century art collection that relate to the theme hybridity. This project contributes to the museum studies field by exemplifying how gallery tours can stimulate active learning, encourage visitors to find meaning in artworks, and form their own conclusions about objects in the museum. The project provides a model for integrating inquiry-generated dialogue within the gallery tour structure. Finally, it demonstrates that dialogue-based teaching can be used with teens and adults, audiences that some educators perceive as more reticent than younger learners to engage with this style of education.

Abstract:
The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA) of Richmond, Virginia, is completing its largest expansion and reinstalling over 6000 artworks, including the Ancient American art collection, to be displayed in the museum’s first permanent gallery space for Ancient American art. In preparation for expansion, the VMFA issued its “Interpretive Plan Guiding Principles,” identifying visitor motivations for viewing the collections. As collection accessibility is central to the museum’s mission statement, all galleries are to provide visitors with the tools to engage with artworks. This thesis project presents a comprehensive history of Pre-Columbian collecting in museums and the history of the VMFA including its Pre-Columbian collection, which will be displayed in the Ancient American Gallery. It includes a summary of research conducted on objects designated for installation. Finally, this project addresses how the Ancient American Gallery will serve as an environment adapting to the principle experiences established by the VMFA.

Abstract:
Following rapid economic development since 1970s, political transformation and social reformation in the 1980s, Taiwan has become increasingly concerned with its arts and culture. The main purpose of this research is to find out in what ways Taiwanese government can help the public fine arts museum in their personnel and financial managements to substantiate their subsistence and development in order to ensure the preservation and development of arts and culture. Therefore the main subjects of this thesis are arts and culture, fine arts museum and government along with the emphasis on tackling museum personnel and finance problems. This research has offered an overview of the cultural development in Taiwan, the personnel and finance problems of museums in practice. It has also justifies the importance of arts and culture, the values and functions of fine arts museums, the necessity of government intervention. Most of all, with the inspection on the policies and programmes developed and applied in different countries, this research attempts to provide possible and better solutions for Taiwanese Governments and fine arts museum. In order to answer my research questions: Why should the government support fine arts museums? In what ways have the government policies impacted upon the roles and functions of fine arts museums in Taiwan? What are the main problems experienced by the fine art museums in Taiwan and in what form of relationship that government might help to ameliorate them? I have applied two qualitative methods: document and in-depth interview collecting and analysis. This research has reviewed the relevant theories from a broad range of disciplines including politics, economics, sociology, cultural studies and museum studies to explore the key themes founded in the documents and in-depth interviews, such as government intervention vs. museum autonomy and centralisation vs. decentralisation.

Abstract:
The aim of this research is to present an important but forgotten Tiffany interior, that of All Saints Episcopal Church, and focuses on the source for the Saunders memorial window, Christ Resurrection. After portraying the Saunders Family and the context of the window and church interior as an important part of Richmond’s history, this thesis sets up a number of inquiries regarding Christ Resurrection. What are the literary sources; what are the formal sources, from the Renaissance to the late nineteenth century; and what is the meaning of the composition? This thesis utilizes an art historical method of archival, connoisseurial, and iconological research. The analysis of the third chapter illustrates that Frederick Wilson’s composition of Christ Resurrection does not follow any one of the Evangelists. Rather it comes from an extensive pictorial tradition from Resurrection scenes of the 14th century leading into the 17th.

Abstract:
The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA) has in its collection eleven ancient West Mexican ceramic sculptures. Given that the VMFA's West Mexican Ceramic figure collection has not been included in any extensive study, this thesis serves to provide a critical analysis of these figures through a formal and stylistic approach. These analyses are preceded by a brief history of the West Mexican cultures and highlight the artistic similarities and differences between each region. The primary regions under discussion are Colima, Nayarit, and Jalisco which correspond to modern geopolitical boundaries. Primary sources for these discussions are the figures themselves, while various published catalogues serve as comparative sources. Where applicable, iconographical theories are introduced and discussed in conjunction with the formal and stylistic analysis.

Abstract:
In 2010, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts accessioned a ritual gourd from Mambila peoples of Nigeria and Cameroon into their collection. Although ritual containers with similar configurations abound in different parts of the Cameroon Grasslands in Central Africa, the VMFA gourd presents particular difficulties due to the nature of its accumulation and the lack of scholarship on the Mambila peoples. Therefore, in this thesis, all the aspects of its accumulation have been considered in relation to the culture and belief system of the Mambila and their neighbors. Special attention has been paid to the interconnectedness of form, function, and meaning throughout the thesis in order to shed some light on the social, cosmic, and ritual significance of the gourd and its attachments.

Abstract:
This qualitative research study comprised of six case studies explores museums’ practical usage of social media as an organization public relations tool. Analyzing six different museums using both surveys and interviews, this research provides a strategic, theory-based framework for any organization to utilize social media effectively by increasing public trust and engagement. Understanding the role that social media plays within organizational public relations is crucial for both for-profit and non-profit organizations. Because nonprofit organizations are often operating under time, personnel, and financial constraints, the accessibility and zero-cost of social media are hugely advantageous tools for non-profits organizations. However, without a strategy, their efforts to build meaningful relationships with their publics using these tools is futile. Museums are an under-studied but important field under this non-profit umbrella. The general ineffectiveness of museum usage of social media also target a key problem with social media usage by museums—the focus is on marketing, rather than on public relations, which leaves the communications from these institutions feeling robotic, inauthentic, and difficult with which to engage. Using Hon and Grunig’s (1999) four elements of OPR (Organizational Public Relations)—satisfaction, trust, control mutuality, and commitment—and the coorientaton model, this study provides insights into how museums and their patrons perceive the museum’s attempts at building OPR through social media. Findings indicate that while most museums and their patrons are in alignment of their perceptions of the museums’ efforts, many museums are ranking low on all four elements of OPR. In order for any organization to fully utilize social media, it must be used not simply as an arm of marketing or sales, but as an indispensable tool of building satisfaction, trust, control mutuality, and commitment, which in turn, lead to higher levels of engagement and future behavior intentions.

Abstract:
The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston owns ten oil sketches by Thomas Sully (1783-1872) which depict episodes from Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. The ten paintings represent different events in Crusoe's twenty-eight year stay on an uninhabited island from the shipwreck which landed him there to his departure. He dated the first sketch 1856, and they were probably the preparatory studies for ten larger paintings of the same subjects which he completed in 1858. On the back of the first sketch Sully acknowledged his source for the sketches, illustrations by the English artist, Thomas Stothard (1755-1834) which were published in an 1820 edition of Robinson Crusoe. In addition to the Robinson Crusoe series, Sully painted many other literary subjects which have never been studied in any detail. Although Sully is known as a portraitist, these examples of his subject paintings indicate that they should be studied further.

As the epitome of society’s development, art museums play an important role in the development and preservation of our arts. From simply preserving and exhibiting art works in the past to becoming modern institutions of our times, art museum’s impact on society has grown on all levels. This study reviews the development of art museums, and at the same time, looks at the functions of a modern art museum in our modern society and its responsibilities to the city.   Using the drawings from the past design competition for the Tainan Museum of Fine Arts and through observation of the city, the atmosphere and feel of the alleys in Tainan is experienced and studied. Then by drawing discourse from the book Genius Loci: Towards a Phenomenology of Architecture, the researcher’s personal experience of the architectural spaces are described using a more structured language. Lastly, using materials found to construct the feel of the architectural space of an art museum, one that with local characteristics of Tainan is designed and presented.   This research also explores the functions and responsibilities of an art museum in an ancient capital such as Tainan. Tainan is a city with a flourishing tourism industry, and the art museum is located at where most tourist activities take place. The study looks at how cluster effects may come in place after an art museum is established, and how the art museum can integrate with surrounding arts and tourism resource to have a greater impact on Tainan’s artistic activities and the local tourism industry.

A large museum has multi-functional exhibition rooms and many floors. As a result, visitors tend to lose their way while they are entering a museum. Environmental Visual Design plays an important role between the visitors and the art pieces; it is also the most direct facility in a museum visitors get in touch with. The quality of the Environmental Visual Design and whether it can meet visitors’ requirements are the main factors affecting visitors’ first impression of a museum. We do research on Museum’s Environmental Visual Design by going to the three museums and passing out the questionnaires to the visitors. The research uses Taipei Fine Arts Museum, National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts and Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Art as its experimental museums. 355 questionnaires have been passed out, which focus on the efficiency and the potential problems of Environmental Visual Design of the museums and give suggestions.

Due to changes in the social environment there are now countless art museums throughout the world, however, not all exhibitions are well received by the public. Brand image is the key to attract visitors, no matter how exciting the collections are being presented; the brand message needs to relay excitement or intrigue fascination to the viewers. The art administrators in Taiwan have been gaining publicity by creating unique, economic and competitive marketing campaigns. They realized that successful marketing can embrace and perform the essence of the art museum and exert its full potential. Moreover, an effective brand image is able to make an art museum more accessible to a diverse audience through its network of museums, programs, educational initiatives, and publications. This research aims to study three public art museums in Taiwan, which are, Taipei fine arts museum, National Taiwan museum of fine arts, and Kaohsiung museum of fine arts. Through qualitative comparative study, researcher creates surveys which aim to evaluate the brand image, the strategy of brand marketing, and the publicity of art education. In this research, author received 85 responses for "the brand image research questionnaire of Taipei Fine Arts Museum," 90 responses for "the brand image research questionnaire of National Taiwan museum of fine arts,” and 116 responses for "the brand image research questionnaire of Kaohsiung museum of fine arts.” Based on the statistical analysis of the results, the brand image actually does resonate. In addition, this paper also recommends Taiwanese museums to adopt the marketing tactics of three successful cases from overseas, the museums are National gallery of art (U.S.A), Centre national d'art et de culture Georges-Pompidou (France), and the National museum of art, Osaka (Japan). In these case studies, the author also investigates the history of the six above mentioned art museums, organization, collections, and analyzes logos via semiotic theory. In conclusion, the brand image strategy for Taipei fine arts museum, National Taiwan museum of fine arts, and Kaohsiung museum of fine arts are comprehensive, impressive, and successful. Three public arts museums offer professional art learning environments and international exhibitions, which are above the mark. Furthermore, the result of the survey also indicates that the visual identity of Kaohsiung museum of fine arts is the most comprehensive and completed among the three cases. However, according to the feedback, the publicity of art education of three cases are not as popular, therefore some classic collections, digital facilities, and library are not known to most people. Thus, publicity is the obvious disadvantage that the art museums need to improve.

Following the increasing trend of modern recreation life,the museum has considered one of “culture travel business”. According Taiwan Tourism Bureau’s data,6.0% to 9.5% Taiwan people choose to visit exhibition or activities,almost one-third visitors choose those culture activities. This thesis took National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts’ (NTMoFA) audience as the sample,observed the behavior and favorite of the museum audience,and used conjoint analysis to study the interaction between the factors. Hope the study is useful for the museum to know the preference of museum visitors. Six dimensions “exhibition environment,instrument,friendly instrument, information service, consumption service,education” were inducted to 14 factor. The study found audience most prefer the “exhibition environment” dimension, the second is “education”and“information service”. To prove the most important service of the museum is to hold exhibition. The study also found the audience preference factor,the rank one is“the fame of curator and artist”,and the other rank is “exhibition content”,“education activity”,“interactive instrument”,“guide service” and “place design”. The most attractive combination is “High fame curator and artist,thematic content, more interactive instrument,well-designed place,use guide machine,and practice education activity.”

Installation art is a kind of technique applying widely in contemporary art. It usually involves multiple media and items, which construct the complete piece of art with the elements in space. Those characters are considerably different form the traditional art works, resulting in the difficulty of keeping registration records of installation arts properly. The essay aims to present the recent study in installation art registration and design the usable registration format of installation arts for art museums in Taiwan. To ensure the registration forms could be practiced, Kaohsiung Find Art Museum, Taiwan (KFMA) was chosen as the critical case in the research. KFMA had processed increasing amount of installation arts recent years; however, it was still the begging. What’s more, it was at the turning point for considering registration format changing. Study related to installation art registration was reviewed and integrated with the registration form used in KFAM to create the registration form (draft) in the research. Then the collection of KFAM, which could present the issues and perspectives that are important to installation art registration, were chosen for the examples. To prove the usability of the registration form (draft), the information related to the examples were gathered as much as possible from all the sources, such as museums and galleries. Furthermore, these examples filled in with the registration form (draft) became the materials for the semi-structural interview with the curators in collection department, KFAM. The curators stated their needs and thoughts about revising the draft. Concerned with all the information in the interviews with artists and curators, the finalized registration form was established. In conclusion, the usability of registration form draft was proved in the interviews with the curators. They thought the categories in the form useful and that recording all the mediums, size, and conservation solution by every separate part in the whole piece of art was important, which is in the top of list to do for installation art registration. They also gave their advice to make the detailed design of the form more practical in their work. From the concern of artists about how to preserve and present their works and the interviews with curators, the registration form was gradually modified to the final version. In the progress, the significance of that the registration form could be an efficient channel for artists and curators to communicate about all the aspects of the work and the best way to preserve and represent the work appropriately. The form would be a reference for gathering data and doing registration records which had been examined as workable.

This study aims to explore how to achieve the liberation of visitors’ beholding (or, to liberate the artistic authority in art museum) by rethinking the spatial configuration and the significance role of program in contemporary art museum. Firstly, this thesis examines the spatial configuration, starting with Jacques Derrida's concept of deconstructive reading that is afterward transformed into architectural theory by Bernard Tschumi, on how spatial configuration conducts programming, and vice versa. Based on the theory of spatial configuration and programming, this study carries out the research on subject of contemporary art museum by questioning the “white cube display methodology", which is seen as a paradigm by art institution from the beginning of 20th century. By implementing design practice, this thesis is looking for the possibility to release the restriction of spatial configuration in contemporary art museum from “Form follows function”, the modern architectural belief. In Chapter one, in confront with the trend in architectural signature as architect’s artistic work, and the liberating from the obedience in spatial structure defined by model plan under institutionalization of art museum, that to some extent enriches the beholder’s behaviors along visiting art museum, all phenomenon stated above led to the core points: how does the typology of art museum come out and, furthermore, how should architecture of art museum respond to the unpredictability in contemporary art forms? Accordingly, this study carries out literature review of Derrida’s deconstructive reading generated from linguistics, and Bernard Tschumi’s architectural insight interpreted from Derrida’s Deconstructionism. Three characteristics of “spatial play” are then concluded through case studies in architectural projects: "Openness of spatial configuration" and "Uncertainty of programming" and “Proliferation along text rewriting". By which, this study re-examines deconstructive reading into spatial configuration and programming to establish the research foundation of how playness emerging from the ambiguity in architecture. In the third chapter, from the perspective of spatial configuration and programming, three features of modern art institution-model plan are identified: “Duality of open and closed systems: Separation of display and collection", "Modern art history viewpoint: diachronic exhibition space organization" and "Spatial configuration control: the hall/atrium as the field of art declaration." The features underlie the research on rethinking the liberation of the universal spatial programming within art museum. In the Fourth Chapter, based on the "Programming" concept in deconstructive methodology within Tschumi’s architecture theory, nine museum architectures are set up as reading texts. The intention of the reading on nine museum projects is to test in what way the museum connote the general reading (rationality) or deconstructive reading (spatial play). That will shed the light on how the reconstructive spatial play is taken place and will regarded as supplement and proof in contemporary art museum in the study. A design practice is carried out on The Taipei Fine Arts Museum as an experiment to implement the discourse in the chapter 5 & 6. The demand for future collections is set up as design preparation. The thesis design, in facing the free spirits among contemporary art from, challenges the space sequences restricted by universal institutionalization plan to transform into a museum with possibility of play for contemporary art.

In 1983, with the opening of Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Taiwan has entered the era of “Fine Arts Museum”. Since 2001, Taipei Fine Arts Museum has regularly held an education exhibition every year. The“education exhibition” has become one of the policies of the Fine Arts Museum to promote education. As community art education organizations, Fine Arts Museums belong to informal learning field. Through self-directed learning objects, audiences can learn by themselves. Thus, the core curriculum of museum is exhibition itself. The education exhibition of Fine Arts Museum, as the core promotion policy of education, is neither teaching arts nor techniques. Through observation, thinking, using hands, games, experiences, etc., children can be closed to art works and can explore and discover the variety of arts. By viewing, reading and interactive thinking, children can be lead to know arts. The purpose of this study is focusing on the concept of Fine Arts Museum “education exhibition” and the observation of the interaction with docent. The research, from different point of view, is hoping to deeply understand the current development status and subjects of domestic Fine Arts Museum “education exhibition”.The research is based on Taipei Fine Arts Museum in 2008 “Memory: Flowing through the Fingers”education exhibition as case study and to frame the concept of Fine Arts Museum“education exhibition”by studying relative bibliography; adopting the”qualitative research" approach as the main axis to integrate interview data, participant observation records, field logs, and other feedback from the respondents for the analysis of text,the researcher restores the essence of docent touring experience.The research provides the theory that the confliction between theories of education exhibition and experiences would influence the docent’s function capability of museum tour to be fully elaborated.

Recently Museums focus on their visitor more than only collect their collections. Because education has been promoted and lots of exhibitions have been held, museums have attracted variety visitors. For give visitors better quality of visiting and raise the education function of museum, museums have to increase more human. But the limited funding can’t afford more budget of human resource. For that, volunteers who don’t need to paid are the optimal human resource to museums. Then where do the volunteers come from? Holmes & Edwards (2007) volunteers in museums are part of the visitors in museums. And they are effectively visitors who participate actively. This research will see visitors to participate in volunteers through the visitors’ side, hoping to understand the relation between visitors and volunteers in museums. Through questionnaire survey, get 300 effective questionnaires in Taipei Fine Arts Museum. The result shows that the major visitors in TFAM are: female, young people, students, unmarried and high educated, not necessary have art background. Most of them are non-recurring visitors and come with their friends. Their motivations of visiting museums are learning, escaping and social. They would have more intentions of being a volunteer if they are retired. The research also found out that those who are female, have learned professional art courses, prepare to develop in art area, regular visitors, visit museum and stay over one hour, have great experience after visit the museum and have been volunteering tend to become a volunteer in museums. Base on the result, suggesting museums should archive their visitors, to provide the information of how to participate to volunteers to those who have more intentions. And provide more welfare to volunteers to attract people participate to volunteers.

Museums are symbols of civilized society, and serve as an index of a country''s cultural standards.The museums discussed in this thesis refer specifically to fine art museums, which are designed with the goal of serving the public, and it is on this foundation of service that a museum''s elements are constituted. When discussing the planning and establishment of an art museum, the focus should include not only the necessary external factors, such as culture, society, organizational systems, and other factors related to the broader environment, but also a careful examination of whether the museum encompasses a complete set of necessary elements based on its subjective expectations. There are many factors necessary for a museum to operate smoothly and fully realize its potential, including a careful choice of site and a well-defined direction, a clear idea about the content and its distinguishing characteristics, a complete model for the museum''s organization and daily operation, suitable consideration of the museum''s functions and efficiency, complete and well-equipped facilities, and a well-developed plan for expansion. The success of a museum''s operations, therefore, is contingent on its operational foundation and overall resources, a strategic plan for development, a receptive public, and its organizational structure. These five elements form the soul of a museum, and are the base of its operations. It is only through careful attention to each of these elements that a museum can operate effectively and meet its overall operational goals. In short, a new opportunity and a sound framework of an art museum can be realized through an exploration of the elements of a museum and a proposal of ideas, plans, surveys and analysis. This research focuses on the study of the basic elements of an art museum, while exploring the current status of art museums in Taiwan and other regions in Asia, discussing the issues confronted by Taiwan''s art museums in the future, and proposing a series of strategies and suggestions. The thesis begins by discussing and compiling relevant literature so as to gain a systematic understanding of the basic elements of art museums and the history of art museums. The thesis then turns its attention to data analysis to understand the current functions and structures of art museums in Taiwan and other regions in Asia, as well as find commonality between different art museums in their elements and actual operation. Lastly, the thesis discusses the important issues regarding the elements of Tainan''s Asian Pacific art museum, and makes a series of suggestions for the planning and establishment of art museums in the future.

The public museums in Taiwan, that are marked the beginning of the Japanese colonial period, are different from the museums developed in the context of European and American culture. In the current Taiwan society, ”Indigenous Contemporary Art” is concerned by the mainstream society. The term “Indigenous contemporary Art” differs from the other one “Indigenous Art” which is integrated closely with the ethnic culture systems in the traditional society. This study is concerned the form, value and meaning of the Indigenous Contemporary Art, which are transformed from the traditional society to the Taiwan society now, as well as the legal knowledge conforming to the national perspectives, constructed by the exhibition field of the public museums. The purpose is to understand when the public museums become spaces as the representative of the national perspectives, local collective memory and civilized indicators, they how to perform their perspectives by way of exhibition and curating to communicate with the Indigenous Contemporary Art. Indigenous ethnic art being created should follow the development of their own social context. The different histories and social organizations produce different art. Taiwan was controlled by the Japanese colonialism from 1895 to 1945, and the Retrocession of Taiwan in 1945. During this period, the indigenous ethnic traditional social organization disintegrated rapidly, and the culture, exiting with ethnic social organizations also gradually disappeared. The eras of 1980s were also the periods in which the social movements happened frequently. The lifting of Martial Law was proclaimed in 1987.The term “subjectivity” of Taiwan was magnified in the society because the regime changed during the 1990s.Indigenous were on the behalf of Taiwan subjectivity meaning, so they were emphasized in the era of subjective identify dominant the artistic expression. Thus the symbolism of artistic expression as a ethnic culture microcosm disappeared gradually. Owing to the emphasizing personal consciousness, there are diversified forms of artistic expression. The National Museum of Prehistory and the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Art are the two public museums in Taiwan, that pay attention to this phenomenon and develop indigenous contemporary art positively. Respectively emphasize it’s “contemporary” of the diversified artistic expression by way of different knowledge systems and different subjects in the particular exhibitions, and “create” the indigenous’ “new culture concept” by the exhibition discourse. In the exhibition, the public museum has the advantage of the power of discourse to interpret the phenomenon. It can not only express some phenomenon and consciousness subjectively, but also has direct intents and purpose when the Special Exhibitions are held. As the result, as soon as the object is interpreted under the particular consciousness, some developments of the artistic exhibitions are strengthened or weakened. In other word, while the indigenous contemporary art is exhibited in the public museum, it faces a particular class that is able to copy and produce the aesthetic conception and art value in the indigenous contemporary art field.

Under the promotion of living quality, the demand of public infrastructure has also increased along in order to blend into part of living in residential neighborhoods. Based on the promotion of culture industry and local culture development, it has enhanced living quality as well as presenting its diversified regional characteristics. From local and abroad literature reviews, it indicated that public infrastructure has a positive multiplying effect towards housing prices. However, among the traditional characteristic function, an individual environmental factor or public infrastructure factor was often indistinguishable. Therefore, this study seeks to adopt characteristic function to explore the impact of the National Taiwan Art Museum towards neighboring residential prices. By reviewing of the National Taiwan Art Museum, it possessed distinctive characteristic function. Among the induction, the Museum has beaming characteristics of its infrastructure base and extendable ability, creation, and add-on values. The analyzed result has discovered that influencing factors of the Museum would have different influencing level. It has also proved that different influencing level of influencing factors would generate impacts on residential prices. Other than that, under the analyses of Hedonic Price Method and Variance Test, it could understand the result of influencing level and scope. It was discovered that the second level and third level of β coefficient (which were -0.118 and -0.258 that reached statistical standard) indicated that the Museum has significant influence towards neighboring residential transaction prices. However, the influencing ability was not high. The influencing scope have reached to the second level (400~800 meters).

In the recent years, every museums has hired docent for service. Kaohsiung museum of fine arts is the third National museum, it’s responsible for promoting the atmosphere of arts in southern Taiwan. Since 1994, it hired docents to be the communication bridge between curator and audience. They deliver the thinking and contents of the exhibits to people by their simple, accurate and emotional words; and make them have a pleasure learning and gain knowledge. Moreover, museum has accomplished its function of education. However, we have to evaluate that if the docent service has meets people’s needs or not. Our study is to investigate the effect of docent in Kaohsiung national museum. We use “Knowledge Acquisition”, “Attitute Change”, “Behavior Intension” and “Docent Experience” as our index of docent evaluation.

Abstract The global political economy changes rapidly, and government finances become more constrained by the day. Streamlining its staff, complying with world trends, the government promotes structural reform of organizations, to the extent that organizations have to reposition themselves, and questions of merger or dissolution gradually emerge. The issue of the positioning of museums is very important, as it concerns museums’ prospects for development, which is what prompted the author to study it. It has long been known that, in the management of museums in Taiwan, there has been little consideration of positioning. This has been especially true of public museums, which have always regarded the implementation of government policy as their business and seldom worried about business operations or positioning. Because their positioning has not been clear enough, however, the development of museums has been deficient in terms of clarity of direction and goals, and this has caused confusion and an overlapping of business functions. This research uses enterprise positioning and market segmentation theory and actual examples from the museum world, and corroborates the arguments of domestic and overseas experts and scholars about thinking and practice in this field. There were originally areas of clear overlap between the business or functions of Taipei Fine Arts Museum and those of Museum of Contemporary Art, Taipei. In addition, the deadline for the Museum of Contemporary Art, Taipei to demonstrate that it can operate under the management of the Contemporary Art Foundation is December 31st this year; If it is unable to do so, the question of whether the Cultural Affairs Bureau of Taipei will have to change its policy of contracting out such management services will force a reconsideration of the positioning issue on the part of the bureau and the two museums. In view of this, the author has selected the Taipei Fine Arts Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art, Taipei as her case studies, in the hope of discussing the positioning problem thoroughly. This study mainly adopts a substantive research approach, including a review of the literature, observation, and interviews. Following the appropriate ordering, summing up and analysis of results, and the discovery and discussion of questions, the overall conclusions were: First, positioning remains insufficiently clear; Second, image influences the positioning of museums; Third, position is decided by supervising authorities; Fourth, there is no overall positioning strategy; Fifth, market segmentation has not been carried out; Sixth, market goals have not been firmly established; Seventh, there is a lack of understanding of niche marketing. Finally, the author hopes that this research will become a source of reference for museum managements and prompt a greater emphasis on the positioning question on the part of museum professionals and managers. She also hopes that it will provide a direction and ideas to enable future researchers to expand the scope of this area of research.
