[Themaintainers] New Book on Maintenance and Art

[Fernando Domínguez Rubio]

Hello all,

I hope you can excuse a bit of self-promotion to share with you all the 
publication of my book */Still Life: Ecologies of the Modern Imagination 
at the Art Museum 
<https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/S/bo51203276.html>/*

The book is an in-depth ethnography of the backstage of the Museum of 
Modern Art in New York (MoMA).  In a nutshell, it is an attempt at 
describing the massive behind the scenes work and infrastructures of 
maintenance and repair required to keep art objects alive.

If your interest is piqued,  I will be a having a conversation tomorrow 
with three wonderful scholars:

*Shannon Mattern
