Museums and art galleries appear to be and would claim to be open to all, and yet, in fact, they are visited only by a small segment of the population. Who are those whose love of art brings them into museums? What distinguishes them from the majority of people who exclude themselves or who are effectively excluded?
In this classic study, Bourdieu, Darbel and Schnapper address such questions on the basis of a wide-ranging survey of museum visitors throughout Europe. By examining the social conditions of museum practices, they show that cultivated taste is not a natural gift but a socially inculcated disposition which is distributed unevenly, and which predisposes some to distinguish themselves through their love of art, while others are deprived of this privilege.
Pierre Bourdieu was Professor of Sociology at the Collège de France.

原文摘录

The deliberate neglect of the social conditions which make possible culture and culture become nature, a cultivated nature with all the appearances of grace and talent but nevertheless learned and therefore 'deserved', is the condition for the existence of the charismatic ideology, which allows culture and especially 'the love of art' to be given the central place they occupy in the bourgeois 'sociodicy'. The heir of bourgeois privileges, not being able to invoke rights of birth (which his or her class historically denied the aristocracy) or the rights of nature, a weapon in the past levelled against nobiliary distinctions which would runt the risk of backfiring against bourgeois 'distinction', or the ascetic virtues which allowed the first generation of entrepreneurs to justify their succ...

Statistics show that access to cultural works is the privilege of the cultivated class; however, this privilege has all the outward appearances of legitimacy. In fact, only those who exclude themselves are ever excluded. Given that there is nothing more accessible than museums and the economic obstacles that can be seen at work in other spheres count for little here, it seems quite justified to invoke the natural inequality of 'cultural needs'. However, the self-destructive nature of this ideology is obvious. If it is indisputable that our society offers to all the pure possibility of taking advantage of the works on display in museums, it remains the case that only some have the real possibility of doing so. Aspiration to cultural practice varies in the same way that cultural practice doe... (查看原文)

The museum presents to all, as a public heritage, the monuments of a past splendour, instruments for the extravagant glorification of the great people of previous times: false generosity, since free entry is also optional entry, reserved for those who, equipped with the ability of appropriate the works of art, have the privilege of making use of this freedom, and who thence find themselves legi...

布尔迪厄(Pierre Bourdieu)指出博物馆“是一种虚假的慷慨,因为自由免费的进入也是一种选择性的进入,预留给了那些有能力欣赏艺术品的人,那些能够享用这种自由的人,而这些人也因此觉得自己合法地享有这些特权,也就是合法地拥有了这些文化商品的所有权,或者用韦伯的话说,就是对文化商品和文化救赎的体制符号的操纵的垄断权。

犀利直接,有理有据,解释博物馆开放性背后的虚假承诺。进入博物馆是有选择性的,理解博物馆是有文化区隔的,这种区隔又是服务于支配权的等等。量化数据、公式模型样样都有,让我这个统计渣看得头秃。
