The Art of with- an original essay by Charles Leadbetter for Cornerhouse

There’s a lot of talk around where we go with the practice of collection, display and discussion of culture in a world that seems to be on the brink of providing free, unlimited access to information for all thanks to Web 2.0 technology.  At least those in wealthy nations.

One major topic of debate is how the elite towers of cultural power, such as ‘The Museum’ can evolve in this world and remain relevant.  In the wake of this discussion Cornerhouse have commissioned, Demos think tanker and author of ‘We think‘, Charles Leadbetter to write an essay The Art of With considering the topic with readers being invited to comment on the paper, via a Wiki of course, and to attend a seminar on the 24th June at Cornerhouse.
