la je nagradu za najbolju britansku zgradu u milenijumskoj2000. godini. Muzej Louri, koji sadrži dva izuzetnaamfiteatra i galeriju za decu, a takodje i stalnu zbirku igalerije za privremene izložbe, smešten je na kanalimakoji su prvi poveli napretku Mančestera, vodeći brodovekoji nose tekstilne proizvode Mančestera širom sveta uXIX veku. Sa druge strane sjajnog mosta preko kanala,još jedne kulturne atrakcije, grad je smestio Kraljevskiratni muzej severa, još jedan primer decentralizacijepošto je to ogranak Kraljevskog ratnog muzeja u Londonu.U centru Mančestera smo, u medjuvremenu, napraviliradnu skicu za proširenje i renoviranje Umetničkegalerije Mančestera koju je projektovala arhitektonskafirma Majkla Hopkinsa. Pomogli smo i da se razvijekoncept za Urbis, veoma zanimljivu instituciju XXIveka a to je muzej ideja o životu u gradovima. Konceptje samo delimično realizovan, i ostaje da se vidi da li ćeprvo ponavljanje ideje uspeti, ali je sigurno da mogućnostimuzeja o urbanom životu same po sebi obećavaju.Preporučio bih da razmislite o postavljanju serija ‘gradskih’izložbi koje možete razviti na gradskoj osnovi vlada–vladi: Taljin/ San Francisko, Taljin/Dakar ili Taljin/Šangaj,na primer, za koju možete da pozovete svakigrad da napravi reprezentativnu izložbu svoje istorijeumetnosti i savremene umetnosti pa da je izložite uvašem velikom novom muzeju, a za uzvrat možete da impošaljete da prikažu prošle i sadašnje estonske umetnike.Mnogi gradovi koji su posvećeni razvoju kulturnogturizma bili bi zainteresovani da razrade takvu razmenupozajmica na kratko vreme.U Beču je od nekadašnjih kraljevskih konjušnica,preko puta čuvenog Muzeja umetnosti i Prirodnjačkogmuzeja, napravljen kompleks muzeja i drugih kulturnihatrakcija, zajednički nazvan Muzejski kvart. Posao našefirme je bio da asistira austrijskim arhitektama Ordner&Ordner-una pretvaranju jedne od nekadašnjihzgrada štala u novi Kunsthol Beč, kao i da pomogne planiranjeZoom! - veoma uspešnog muzeja za decu čiji jeprvi direktor, Dr Klaudija Has, sada jedan od naših višihsavetnika.Medju azijskim gradovima, Hong Kong je posebnosvestan svog mesta kao destinacije u kulturnom turizmu,tako da ne iznenadjuje što smo i tamo bili aktivni,pomažući da se napravi predlog za nekoliko muzeja isličnih atrakcija koje su predložene da budu deo razvojazapadnog Kauluna, uključujući novi glavni Muzejmoderne umetnosti.Vlada Hong Konga trenutno razmatrapredloge i očekuje se da će objaviti svoju odluku dali ili kako da se uskoro nastavi. Jedna od mogućnostikoju smo planirali je da Centar Pompidu u Parizu vodinovi Muzej u Hong Kongu, opet kao primer decentralizacijezbirki, pošto bi Pompidu rotirao zbirku krozHong Kong na isti način kao što je Gugenhajm radio uBilbau. Kao gest u susret ovakvoj budućnosti , Pompiduje nedavno izložio Pikasovu ogromnu kulisu za Paraduiz 1917. godine u tri sprata visokom holu trgovačkogcentra – to je prvi put da je taj rad bio vidjen za tridesetgodina.NOVI TIPOVI MUZEJAPošto su prethodna tri veka muzejskog razvoja dovelado novih muzejskih tipova, ne čudi što će brojne promene,do kojih je došlo od kako smo ušli u XXI vek, takodjedovesti do generacije novih tipova muzeja.Jedan zanimljiv pravac predstavlja tendencija suprotnauniverzalnim muzejima umetnosti, kao što je Luvr,a to je težnja ka specijalizovanim muzejima umetnosti.Nedavno smo učestvovali u planiranju Muzejaumetnosti Rubin u Njujorku, to je tek otvoren muzej us-Meanwhile in downtown Manchester we producedthe Functional Brief for the expansion and renovationof the Manchester Art Gallery that the architecturalfirm of Michael Hopkins designed, and we helped to developthe concept for Urbis, a very interesting 21st-centuryinstitution that is an idea museum about the experienceof living in cities. The concept has been only partiallyrealized, and it remains to be seen whether thisfirst iteration of the idea will succeed, but certainly thepotential for a museum that is about urban living itselfis promising. I would recommend that you give considerationto mounting a series of ‘city’ exhibitions that youcould develop on an urban government-to-governmentbasis – Tallinn/San Francisco, Tallinn/Dakar or Tallinn/Shanghai,for example, in which you invite each cityto put together a representative exhibition of its arthistory and contemporary art, to be exhibited in yourgreat new art museum, in return for which you wouldsend them a show of Estonian past and current artists.Many cities that are committed to developing culturaltourism would be interested to work out such an exchangeof short-term loans.In Vienna the former royal stables across the road fromthe famous Kunsthistorisches and Naturhistorisches Museumshas been developed as a complex of museums andother cultural attractions called collectively the Museumsquartier.Our firm’s work here was to assist the Austrianarchitects Ordner & Ordner with the transformationof one of the former stable buildings into the new KunsthalleWien, and to help in the planning of Zoom!, the verysuccessful children’s museum whose first director, Dr.Claudia Haas, is now one of our senior consultants.Among Asian cities, Hong Kong is especially consciousof its role as a cultural tourism destination, so it is notsurprising that we have also been active there, helping toplan a proposal for several of the museums and relatedattractions that are proposed to be part of the West Kowloondevelopment, including a major new Museum ofModern Art. The Hong Kong government is currentlyconsidering the proposals, and is expected to announceits determination of whether or how to proceed shortly.One of the options for which we have planned is that theCentre Pompidou in Paris would operate the new Museumin Hong Kong, again an example of decentralizationof collections, since the Pompidou would rotate its collectionthrough Hong Kong in the same way that the Guggenheimhas done in Bilbao. In a gesture towards this future,the Pompidou recently displayed Picasso’s huge1917 stage curtain for Parade in the three-storey-highlobby of a Hong Kong shopping plaza – the first time ithad been seen in thirty years.New Museum TypesSince the previous three centuries of museum developmentled to new museum types, it is not surprisingthat the many changes occurring as we enter the 21stcentury are also leading to the generation of new typesof museums.One interesting development is a tendency awayfrom universal art museums like the Louvre towardsmore specialized art museums. We have recently beeninvolved in the planning of the Rubin Museum of Art inNew York, a museum focused exclusively on Tibetan andother Himalayan art that has just opened. And we arecurrently working on a major one-artist museum in Philadelphia,dedicated to presenting the work of AlexanderCalder, who is best known for his mobile sculpturesuspended from the ceiling.Idea museums, where the focus is on ideas ratherthan collections, began in the late 20th century but57
