Interview with Chris Dercon, director of Tate Modern London (frieze art 2011. The Year in Review, 12/2011)

Chris Dercon: (…) For the moment my favourite is Christoph Schlingensief’s opera village, a cultural centre in Remdoogo in Burkina Faso. Museums will become different – they will become community centres and art schools. You have to be radically different and to rethink the notion of the museum, not just in its physical substance but as a social organization.
