Beginnings

I am BY NO MEANS an expert on anything; museums are a passion and a side project for me.

I AM someone who will seemingly never leave school, someone who occasionally has the time to sit down at his computer, peruse the internet, and present what he finds, and someone who has taken much interest in museums and collections hidden away on college campuses.

I can't promise what I have to say will always be profound, or that it won't simply be a regurgitation of something I heard or read. But I will try to bring any unfortunate readers into the world hidden in these institutions within institutions. Hopefully, I will occasionally open people up to issues, ideas, or collections with which they weren't yet acquainted.

So if you have the time join me as I question whether Edmond de Goncourt would have made the assertion that, "A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world" if he had been able to foresee people like me having the ability to blog.
