Do you hate art museums? Why (and how) to take a 2nd look
The traditional art museum experience often leads to exhaustion and a sense of alienation due to the overwhelming abundance of artworks and the pressure to see everything quickly. This phenomenon, which affects even visitors to world-class institutions like the Vatican or the Uffizi, stems from a 'problem of abundance' rather than a lack of appreciation for the art itself. The author suggests that smaller, more intimate spaces and a slower approach to viewing would make art more accessible and less intimidating for the general public.
