Kevin Holden: A Tale of Two Museums

From Sina.com:

Visitors to MAM’s [The Millennium Art Museum‘s] new underground art center on western Beijing’s Chang’an Avenue, might be startled the first time the framed “still-lifes” on display start magically moving, speaking, and even swapping positions with other artworks meters away. In some cases, the near-instantaneous exchange might involve works from museums that are continents away. These “moving pictures” are not an illusion, nor are they something out of Harry Potter books. They’re part of the Millennium Art Museum’s wide-ranging plan “to make art more accessible to the public, more interactive, and more universal in appeal,” says Chaos Chen, one of the dynamic young curators behind the venue’s transformation into a global art space.
