Last week Temple announced the hiring of Robert Blackson as Director of Exhibitions at Tyler School of Art. Today comes the announcement from the Contemporary Museum in Baltimore of Sue Spaid’s appointment as Executive Director of the museum. While in Philadelphia, Spaid headed up the Abington Art Center’s exhibition program and also taught Engineering Ethics and Aesthetics at Drexel University. She will join the Contemporary Museum Dec. 13. We should say here that we know Spaid and are big fans of her writing, curating and thinking.
Earlier this month ICA announced Jenelle Porter’s move to ICA Boston. As of January, 2011, Porter will step into the role of Senior Curator in Boston, under newly-appointed Chief Curator Helen Molesworth.
