Abstract

The Musée du Quai Branly Jacques Chirac (MQBJC) in Paris includes a commissioned ceiling mural by Australian artist John Mawurndjul. Neither the identity of the artist nor the cultural meaning of the work features strongly as part of the visitor experience for this work. Such interpretation is, in general, pushed to the margins in the museum's permanent exhibits. Paradoxically, the temporary exhibits are treated differently. The paper details how the power of John Mawurndjul's art is developed in relation to social activities on his own country as well as his cross-cultural engagements with the broader art world. Cultural meaning and strong principles of aesthetics are developed through this creativity. The paper presents these insights as interpretational possibilities for Mawurndjul's mural and questions whether an avowed museum of world arts can continue to ignore the development of a more cross-cultural definition of aesthetics and a relational approach to develop and interpret its permanent exhibits.

John mawurndjul在巴黎的艺术
位于巴黎的Jacques Chirac (MQBJC)博物馆包括一幅由澳大利亚艺术家John Mawurndjul委托制作的天花板壁画。无论是艺术家的身份,还是作品的文化意义,都不是这个作品的参观者体验的一部分。一般来说,这种解释在博物馆的永久展品中被推到了边缘。矛盾的是,临时展览受到了不同的对待。本文详细介绍了John Mawurndjul的艺术力量是如何在他自己国家的社会活动中发展起来的,以及他与更广泛的艺术世界的跨文化接触。文化意义和强烈的美学原则是通过这种创造性发展起来的。本文将这些见解作为对Mawurndjul壁画的解释可能性,并质疑一个公认的世界艺术博物馆是否可以继续忽视对美学的跨文化定义的发展,以及发展和解释其永久展品的关系方法。

期刊介绍: Museum Anthropology seeks to be a leading voice for scholarly research on the collection, interpretation, and representation of the material world. Through critical articles, provocative commentaries, and thoughtful reviews, this peer-reviewed journal aspires to cultivate vibrant dialogues that reflect the global and transdisciplinary work of museums. Situated at the intersection of practice and theory, Museum Anthropology advances our knowledge of the ways in which material objects are intertwined with living histories of cultural display, economics, socio-politics, law, memory, ethics, colonialism, conservation, and public education.
