Museums past self life

-

DOES anything scream 2017 more than news a selfie museum is coming?

That’s right, The Museum of Selfies is opening in Los Angeles next month – and charging visitors $32 a ticket. The attraction will show selfieinsp­ired art and, of course, have plenty of areas designed to look good when visitors want to take their own picture.

The vacuous reason for the owners to begin this exercise in selfie expression is they think the modern museum-goer doesn’t just want to look at art – they want to take pictures of themselves with it.
