National Galleries looks at national art museums globally and considers how - as pieces of architecture, curated spaces and collections of artworks - they entangle art and nation. Are national galleries different from other kinds of art gallery or museum? What value is there for the nation in a collection of international masterpieces? How are national galleries involved in the construction of national art? This is a book that travels the world and considers how art is made to perform differently in each place. It is a book about looking and thinking afresh.
