    <mods:abstract>This seminar will consider the various ways in which artists from Marcel Duchamp and Joseph Cornell through Claes Oldenburg, Andy Warhol, Louise Lawler, Fred Wilson, Mark Dion and the Atlas Group have made aspects of the museum a subject matter of their work. Alternatively engaged in a critique of museum practice or romantic evocations of the past, for the past seventy years manifold artists have addressed the staging devices that museums utilize to confer aura on the work of art, or natural history specimen, as well as the makeup of their collections, categorization and behind the scenes storerooms and archives. This history will be linked to an expanding body of writing that has emerged in the past four decades given to the differing discursive narratives that museums and their archives employ. Writers such as Sigmund Freud, Theodor W. Adorno, Walter Benjamin, Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, Rosalind Krauss, Douglas Crimp, Donna Haraway, Ralph Rugoff, and Susan Stewart will be considered.</mods:abstract>
