| 讓這些館長(zhǎng)們頭痛的問(wèn)題是，絕大部分的美術(shù)館都存在資金不足問(wèn)題。李杰民館長(zhǎng)表示，館長(zhǎng)的首要工作就是要想方設(shè)法去籌集經(jīng)費(fèi)。如果一個(gè)美術(shù)館運(yùn)營(yíng)資金無(wú)法保障，當(dāng)然就舍不得掏錢去做宣傳推廣工作。以深圳為例，每年到了秋季，大街小巷四處可見(jiàn)音樂(lè)廳或劇院的各種宣傳廣告，相比之下，美術(shù)館展覽的宣傳廣告卻寥寥無(wú)幾。 |
The lack of promotion is often due to lack of money. Curator Li Jiemin said the main task of most museum managers is fund-raising. Museums that can barely cover their day-to-day running costs have no money to fund a promotions budget. In Shenzhen there are billboards advertising concerts and plays everywhere, but very few museum ads. |

館長(zhǎng)們還認(rèn)為，美術(shù)館自身還存在一個(gè)定位模糊不清的問(wèn)題。他們達(dá)成的共識(shí)是：美術(shù)館應(yīng)當(dāng)是一個(gè)綜合了研究、收藏、展覽、交流、教育、服務(wù)的藝術(shù)文化機(jī)構(gòu)。美術(shù)館應(yīng)該是“大眾的美術(shù)館”而非“專家的美術(shù)館”。但現(xiàn)實(shí)往往是，普通公眾無(wú)法理解一些展覽和作品的意思，參觀之后并未獲益，久而久之也就不再去看。而美術(shù)館也往往是重展覽，輕教育。

Another major problem is the confusion over the role of art museums. The curator’s consensus was that an art museum should conduct research, collect and exhibit art works, educates and serves the people. Everyone thought they should belong to the people not just a few experts. But the reality is that many people don’t understand or value art and are not interested in learning. If they visit once they will never return. So many museums are focusing on exhibitions and neglecting their educational role. |

| 為了在有限的資金下豐富美術(shù)館的展覽內(nèi)容，四川美術(shù)學(xué)院美術(shù)館館長(zhǎng)馮斌提出各美術(shù)館互相交換展覽。 “一個(gè)展覽籌備一年，花費(fèi)100萬(wàn)，每次展覽最多展出一個(gè)月就完了。但交換展覽的運(yùn)輸費(fèi)僅有幾萬(wàn)，很合算?！?/span> |
Feng Bin of Sichuan Fine Arts Academy Museum said swapping exhibitions was one way to use limited budgets effectively. “Exhibitions normally last about a mouth, but cost a million yuan and a year to prepare. Exchanging collections with other museums costs only a few tens of thousands of yuan in transport costs. It’s well worth it.” |
| 福建美術(shù)館館長(zhǎng)游光霖認(rèn)為，要建設(shè)所謂中國(guó)特色的美術(shù)館，實(shí)質(zhì)上就是要形成美術(shù)館自身的地域特色，而且地域特色與公眾生活關(guān)聯(lián)度比較大，這就要求美術(shù)館要注重相關(guān)作品的收藏，這樣不僅能辦有特色的美術(shù)館，還可以吸引到更多的普通觀眾。同時(shí)，美術(shù)館應(yīng)當(dāng)明確自身的定位，一定要注意美術(shù)館的教育和普及藝術(shù)功能。 |
You Guanglin of Fujian Art Museum said emphasizing regional art, closely related with people’s daily lives, is vital to building museums with Chinese characteristics. Museums should collect art works that are relevant and attract more people. But at the same time, they should pay attention to education and popularization of the arts. |
| 上海張江高科美術(shù)館館長(zhǎng)李旭則帶來(lái)了一些創(chuàng)新的概念——把美術(shù)館推到公共空間，讓美術(shù)館走向群眾。他為美術(shù)館請(qǐng)來(lái)很多藝術(shù)家，已經(jīng)創(chuàng)作了40多件藝術(shù)化的功能性作品，如湖邊的亭子和橋、公交車站等等，采用的都是永久性材料，可以永遠(yuǎn)留在張江。 |
Li Xu of Shanghai Zhang Jiang High Tech Park Art Museum is putting his faith in public art. His idea is to create museums in public spaces and let ordinary people freely interact with and touch the art work. Li has applied his idea in Shanghai. He invited artists to create 40 pieces of public art including functional items such as pavilions, bridges and bus stops. They will be on permanent exhibition in Zhang Jiang Park.
