Subject Matters: The Butterfly Effect of Curatorial Decisions
University of Michigan Museum of Art
Museums are full of singular curatorial choices that reverberate for decades. In this session, UMMA Curator Dave Choberka and Curator of Art in Public Spaces Jenny Carty will trace how decisions made 10, 25, 50 years ago continue to shape UMMA’s collection and programs today. This 90-minute program unpacks the long reach of curatorial judgement and the hidden ways it influences what we se in the galleries — and what stories museums are able to tell.
