ABSTRACT

In her essay, “Intention Does Count” (NAME Exhibitionist, Vol. 21, No. 2, Fall 2002), Marlene Chambers challenged some of the ideas put forth in the publication of our first efforts (“A Tool for Judging Excellence in Museum Exhibitions”) in the Exhibitionist (Spring 2001) and in our first American Association of Museums conference panel discussion in the spring of 2002. In the intervening months, we had considered many of the same issues to which Chambers brought her attention and had drawn many of the same conclusions.
