"The Delirious Museum is a work which gives a new interpretation of the relationship between the museum and the city in the twenty-first century. It presents an original view of the idea of the museum, proposing that it is, or should be, both a repository of the artefacts of the past and a continuation of the city street in the present. Storrie reviews our experience of the city and of the museum taking a journey that begins in the Louvre and continues through Paris, London, Los Angeles and Las Vegas, re-imagining the possibilities for museums and their displays and re-examining the blurred boundaries between museums and the cities around them. During his quest for the Delirious Museum he draws on multiple sources, from Walter Benjamin to Georges Perec and from Greil Marcus to Peter Ackroyd. Encountering on his way the museum architecture of John Soane, Carlo Scarpa and Daniel Libeskind and the exhibitions of El Lissitsky and of Frederick Kiesler, Storrie also surveys the work of artists as varied as Marcel Duchamp, Andy Warhol, Marcel Broodthaers, Sophie Calle and Mark Dion."--Jacket
