We all know about the Met’s new director, but it seems director jobs are in flux throughout the museum world. Richard Armstrong, longtime director of a museum close to my heart and home, the Carnegie Museum of Art, has just recently been appointed director of the Guggenheim Foundation. The Carnegie has been a leader in contemporary and modern art for a long time (see my review on this year’s Carnegie International), so Armstrong is a logical next choice. I’ll be interested to see what the Guggenheim does under his direction — congratulations to him.
