walsh makes compelling observations about gallery installations, signage, lighting, and design. and when it comes to the public trust, he should have the last word: "some curators are apt to complain that seats spoil the look of an installation," he notes, "but what is the installation for, anyway? if we are serious about extending the attention span of our visitors, seats are the simplest, cheapest means to do it. that, and coffee. and toilets."

- john walsh, director emeritus of the j. paul getty museum, quoted by robin cembalest, "a matter of trust," artnews december 2003
