The Linbury Lecture at the National Gallery 2023: Inhabiting the Museum
Description
The Linbury Lecture at the National Gallery 2023 is the fifth in a series of annual lectures which bring distinguished personalities from the broad fields of culture, academia and museums to explore themes relating to the National Gallery’s history and its collections.
Beginning with the belief that art has power to transform lives, Annabelle Selldorf explores the relationship of architecture to art in museum settings. This relationship has adapted as the role of museums has evolved and expanded, but is still ultimately constrained by realities of scale, proportion, volume, light and materiality. By considering the interrelationship of art and architecture it is possible to imagine paths for museums and architects to engage existing and new audiences more impactfully.
Annabelle Selldorf gave this lecture at the Royal Academy, London, on 1 December 2023.
