Episode 46: Veronica Roberts
from Art Scoping · host Maxwell L. Anderson
Art museum directors are caught up in competing travails, from financial shortfalls to racial reckoning to ill-advised deaccessioning. But talented curators across the U.S. are still managing to bring artistic talent to the fore, and Veronica Roberts, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Blanton Museum of Art, is among the museum field’s most imaginative, capable, and humane. We retrace her steps at the leading museums in New York to her adopted state of Texas, with detours to artists’ studios, including those of Ellsworth Kelly, Sol LeWitt, and Diedrick Brackens. And we touch on her use of Instagram to champion emerging artists as well as flora, fauna, and architecture.
