Luminous Landscape: Are Museums Destroying Art?

By allowing photography inside a museum, I believe the museum should be held directly responsible for the premature destruction of priceless pieces. [snip] To add insult to injury, the people that appreciate art and are interested in viewing this and other famous pieces inside the Louvre cannot do so. The reason is that the red and green lights from autofocus assist mechanisms, combined with the rapid repetition of flash bursts are literally blinding.” At the very least, photography should be limited to certain hours of the day. The art is there to be experienced and appreciated, not trophy-photographed.
