Trading spaces: There’s a quiet curatorial revolution going on at the Museum of Fine Arts in my city of Boston:

Rogers’ rallying cry was “One Museum,” where curators would work together to display artworks in different media and incorporate work from other cultures and historical periods that served as influences. Paintings, sculpture and decorative arts would be displayed together so that objects could “speak” to each other.

Now Rogers’ revolution is starting to evolve in the galleries.

With the groundbreaking for the new East Wing expected in about a year, curators have been quietly reconfiguring spaces that house the permanent collection to experiment with these ideas. Boston Herald
