Cleveland Museum Hires One Of Its Own

The Cleveland Museum of Art has filled a key curatorial post from within its existing staff. “Anita Chung, formerly an Andrew W. Mellon postdoctoral fellow at the museum, has been appointed associate curator of Chinese art. She is assuming responsibility for the Chinese collection, overseen for the past 6½ years by Ju-hsi Chou, who retired in June.” The Mellon Foundation has made a challenge grant to permanently endow the position of curator of Chinese art, which has yet to be filled.
