From `cabinets of curiosities' to assemblages of found objects and imitations of museum displays, artists have often turned their attention to the ideas and systems traditionally embodied in the museum - display, archiving, classification, storage, curatorship - which they have then appropriated, mimicked and reinterpreted in their own work. • Citing a huge range of examples, James Putnam shows not only the ways in which artists have been influenced by museum systems and made their works into simulations of the museum, but also how they have questioned the role of museums, observed their practices, intervened in them and helped to redefine them.

"One of my favourite books for my career so far ... – I found this book so useful in this year, I thought I had to come back and write a review. I was recommended this by an Art Tutor halfway through my Art Foundation, and I ended up enjoying it so much, that my entire final project was based upon it's contents. If you are an Artist who loves Found Objects/Museums/Collections, I cannot recommend this book enough- it has plenty of beautiful photos to inspire you, and so many resources which helped me to find artists I now love."
