Hello, I am a graduate student at the University at Buffalo and i am working on a thesis regarding racial and cultural hybridity in the museum. I am having difficulty finding sources of information for one of my chapters. The chapter is regarding museum consumption of the Other.I am interested in finding any books/articles/essay on museum restaurants and museum shops. My idea is that museums restaurants and shops displaying "ethnic" items are another way that the museum makes culture digestible and intelligible serving as a snapshot of other cultures. Through our purchases and consumption we participate in that culture while not abandoning the comfort of our own. I would appreciate any assistance anyone can offer. Thank you very much for your help.
