The book offers a new interpretation of the relationship between the museum and the city.

'The Museum Out of Its Own' is a manifesto against the dull uniformity and one-dimensionality that often results from zealous control and order, and at the same time a treasure trove of stories and intimate facts. The reader will embark on an extraordinarily captivating and informative journey: they will discover London in the early 19th century, Paris in the 1840s, and Las Vegas in the 1990s, connecting them with the most striking European artistic and architectural projects of the 20th and 21st centuries. They will encounter the dreams and embodiments of paradoxical creators: John Soane and El Lissitzky, Marcel Duchamp and Robert Filho, Carlo Scarpa and Christian Boltanski, Le Corbusier and Rem Koolhaas, Alfred Hitchcock and Joseph Cornell... They will see how multidimensional and unpredictable the streets, buildings, windows, and entire neighborhoods of modern cities are. They will become convinced of the existence of 'that which already exists, but remains unnoticed, as if existing in a parallel universe.' In short, the reader will be forced to reconsider their relationship not only with the museum, but also with the city, and perhaps with themselves.
