"Archives are more prominent than ever, not only in art practice and theoretical discourse but also in popular culture. An archive is now understood to mean anything that is longer current but that has been retained. This paper considers how archival practice can be integrated further within current discourses of art history, theory and practice, at a time when the concept of the archive is at both more widely known and less fixed in its meaning." https://www.tate.org.uk/research/publications/tate-papers/09/perspectives-negotiating-the-archive

"For too long archives have been hidden and archivists overlooked. All sorts of unflattering stories have circulated about archives, as if to keep the general public out. Witness the way popular culture has painted the picture: dust, disorder and darkness." https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/august-2018/public-archives-relevant-today-ever/
