| SMoCA gets new curator, sculptures | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Schneider, who will assume her new role at the museum this April, was previously the curator at the Albright Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York, for the past decade. She also served a stint as the adjunct curator at the Crawford Municipal Art Gallery in Cork, Ireland and was a curatorial intern at institutions including the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, the Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan and the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, Mass. Schneider holds a Bachelors Degree in Art History from Tufts University and earned a Masters Degree in Art History from Williams College. Meanwhile, the sculptural pieces were a donation from Karla Goldschmidt in the wake of a fall 2007 exhibit, “Good Form,” a tribute to the collection built by Goldschmidt and her late husband, Walter, a founding board member of SMoCA. “The Goldschmidts primarily collected sculpture of an intimate, domestic scale-with an eye for exquisite abstract from and a rare depth of knowledge,” the museum stated in a recent press release. No announcement was made as to whether the pieces would find some sort of public display in the immediate future. Contact Julie Janovsky by email, or phone (480) 898-6575. |
