Description
"These essays make us reflect on why certain objects were deemed worthy of preservation at certain moments in time when others were not. The essays also have a great deal to say about the creation and reconfiguration of memories. Curators and collectors, rather than just preserving old artifacts as a timeless slice of the past, have been providing ingredients - ranging from flannel underwear to fine art - for the creation of new cultural forms and new cultural memories. it turns out that immersion in material culture is as much about creation as preservation. That irony is worth savoring as you dive into this thought-provoking collection.
