Description:
This is an extraordinary tribute to an extraordinary place, one that will allow the MONA effect to resonate for years to come.






The inside story of Australia's most exciting museum.




Hailed as the most important addition to the Australian cultural landscape since the opening of the Sydney Opera House, MONA has shaken up the art world by breathing life and delight back into the museum experience. Visitors are flocking to MONA, but what is it about MONA that makes it such a transformative experience? And how on earth did an amateur private collector manage to set up one of the world's great art destinations on the edge of a remote island city?




This is the inside story of how MONA came to be. With a degree of access rarely granted to others, sociologist and design expert Adrian Franklin takes readers deep behind the scenes to reveal how MONA became what it is today- from its origins on the banks of the Derwent River, to the architectural and building process, to the branding and curation. Part modern art history, part biography of a place, The Making of MONA is for readers who are as fascinated by the MONA building and experience as they are by the collection and the man behind it all.




This is an extraordinary tribute to an extraordinary place, one that will allow the MONA effect to resonate for years to come.




'Much to my surprise, and thankfully, I'm rather enjoying MONA and me being put under the microscope.' David Walsh




'In Australia maybe the future has already arrived at a place that redefines the term art gallery . . .' Edmund Capon

Starts off very cool
I got this pillowcase for my husband because he is always hot at night and has trouble falling asleep because of it. The fabric of this pillowcase feels very similar to a cooling pillowcase that I have had for years and love (but is discontinued, so I can't get any more of them). It is a silky smooth, not-quite-satin fabric that feels initially very cool to the touch. It fits on a standard size pillowcase, and has a slight pocket end (not very much overlap, so it does come untucked during the night). My husband reports that this pillowcase is very cooling right when he goes to bed, but after a short while, it warms up and isn't really cool anymore. So if he doesn't fall asleep right away (and he usually doesn't), he has to flip it over. His head puts out a lot of heat at night though, so the pillowcase might stay cooler longer for others.

Doesn’t stay on the pillow.
Color: Gray, Size: Queen (2 Count)
The concept is there, but the pillow case doesn’t stay on. Every night the pillow case slides either half way or completely off the pillow. If it stayed on I would love it
