ArtScience Museum forms int’l advisory board!
“You mean all this time, there wasn't any?!" Yeah, that was my first thought too.
But better late than never, right? Hopefully we can expect a smoother run of exhibitions from the museum for 2012.
According to their release, the six members of their International Advisory Board are:
- Stephane Pennec, a conservator and “UNESCO expert”. The board leader is also the chief of conservation of objects recovered from the Titanic wreck site.
- Michael Koh, National Heritage Board CEO.
- David Harvey, American Museum of Natural History’s senior VP for exhibition.
- Fumio Nanjo, Mori Art Museum director and familiar face to the local arts scene
- Sharon Ament, Natural History Museum, London’s director of public engagement.
- Tom Zaller, prez and CEO of Image Exhibitions, which has been a consultant company for the museum.
- Nick Dixon, ArtScience Museum’s incoming executive director (presumably taking over Mr Zaller, who’s been the helming the museum from the start).
