The publication of the article at this moment is instrumental. But the contents are absolutely worth sharing, and they concern all art (including music) and not just in Italy. A must-read.

I like to think of a museum as a static, gray, and dusty place with middle-aged, slovenly guards in oversized uniforms. Today's dynamism makes the enjoyment of art something similar to an aperitif at a vernissage. I prefer to immerse myself without fanfare in the contemplation of art, a world in Black and White where colors only come to life if sought out.
