Speaking at the London School of Economics, Neil MacGregor, director of the British Museum, and Sir Nicholas Serota of the Tate discuss the future of museums, touching on the evolution of museum from authors to publishers, the role of the internet, and the need for revolutionary improvements in transportation of museum objects. And, MacGregor notes, there will not be a future in which the Elgin Marbles return to Greece.
