Behind the Scenes at "Exhibition" Journal, with Ian Kerrigan

What if there were a high-quality, peer-reviewed journal for the whole exhibition community? What if it featured the leading organizations, practitioners and ideas that shape the whole industry? What if back issues for the past 30 years were available — for free, right now?“Exhibition,” the Journal of Exhibition Theory & Practice, published by the American Alliance of Museums, is all those things. But who makes it? What has it taught us? And what’s coming next? Ian Kerrigan (Managing Editor of “Exhibition” and Senior Vice President for Exhibitions at National September 11 Memorial & Museum) joins Jonathan Alger (Managing Partner, C&G Partners) to go “Behind the Scenes at Exhibition Journal”.  Along the way: 1001 inventions, how fun helps even serious subjects, and why sometimes you might need to change your name.
