“While being faced with a seemingly inevitable and partially beneficial rise of web-based communication technology and human interaction, museums can and should offer an alternative for the exchange of artistic expressions on the web if only to maintain a much needed balance between the quantity and quality of art.”
Michiel van Iersel

“It is very likely that ‘the wisdom of crowds’ and ‘radical trust’ will increasingly affect museums, but I believe that as long as there are moral, economic and legal incentives to conserve our heritage, there will be agents – curators, programmers, critics – who will be rewarded for their expertise.”
Juha van ‘t Zelfde
