Village Books in Historic Fairhaven

Museum Legs is both an irreverent, warmly engaging collection of essays and a practical resource for people interested in the intersection of art, innovation, and creativity.  Museum Legs—taken from a term for art fatigue—starts with a question: Why do people get bored and tired in art museums and why does that matter? As Whitaker writes in these humorous and incisive essays, museums matter for reasons that have less to do with art as we know it and more to do with business, politics, and the age-old question of how to live.

Amy Whitaker has an MBA from Yale and an MFA in painting from the Slade. She likes teaching economic theory to artists and, teaching painting and a crash course in art history to businesspeople. Her work has appeared in Architectural Design and the New York Times.
