British Museum to get bigger
3 слайд
London’s British Museum is going to become bigger. Executives have decided it is too small to accommodate many of the world-class exhibitions they want to put on and have announced plans to build a $200m extension. The new galleries will house bigger shows and increase the museum’s status as one of the best in the world. In recent years, the museum has not been able to cope with the huge crowds wanting to see special exhibitions. In 2006, the demand for tickets was far greater than the number of tickets available for its exhibitions on Persia and Michelangelo. Neil MacGregor, the museum’s director, said: "For the Michelangelo we could have had three times as many visitors if we'd had space." The new 1,000 square metre space will allow more people to see these kinds of popular large-scale displays.
Unfortunately, the new complex will not be completed in time for September’s eagerly awaited exhibition, The First Emperor: China's Terracotta Army. The largest number of terracotta warriors from China’s Forbidden City ever to leave China will come to London. The museum has already sold over 30,000 tickets and has had to borrow exhibition space from its reading room. The British Museum had to turn down Tutankhamen and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs at the same time as the Chinese exhibition because it did not have enough space for both. If the new buildings were finished today, it could have considered running the exhibitions from China and Egypt at the same time. Instead, the Tutankhamen exhibition will be shown in another of London’s museums and is predicted to be the most popular show in British history.
