CMD at the Museums Australia Conference 2010

Bryon, Paul and Laila  attended the Museums Australia Conference from the 28th September to the 2nd October. Bryon took part in a exhibition critique session of Screenworlds at ACMI and Paul delivered a paper, A designer’s perspective: sustainability in museums.

There were many interesting sessions and ideas circulating. Visiting the new exhibits at the Grainger Museum, Professor Richard Sandell’s keynote address ‘Museums and the good society’ and Professor Morris Vogel’s keynote ‘America’s enduring conversation about national identiy: The shifting view from New York’s Lower East Side Tenement Museum’ were a few of the highlights.
