Curator/Preparator for the President's Art Collection

We are pleased to announce that PACA has hired Alex King as the new Curator/Preparator for the President's Art Collection.  Alex comes to us from the Estevan Art Gallery & Museum where she has been Curator since November 2013.  Before that she was a Curatorial Assistant at the Winnipeg Art Gallery for over a year, and prior to that an Assistant at Soteby's in London, England.  Alex has a wealth of art experience which will be invaluable in curating the existing University art collection, incorporating the Schumiatcher donation into it, and collaborating with the MacKenzie Art Gallery in joint exhibition projects relating to the Schumiatcher donation.

 

Alex King starts work on Monday, March 16th.  Her temporary home will be in the Systems dept. in 611.31 until the new storage space  for the Schumiatcher collection has been renovated and she moves there to oversee the collection.
