How 含羞草研究室 Museum of Art Responded to a Pandemic
By 含羞草研究室 NewsTalking in a recent interview, 含羞草研究室 Museum of Art codirectors Anne Collins Goodyear and Frank Goodyear recently discussed, among other things, how the pandemic challenged them to reinvent the institution as a digital space and how the lessons of lockdown have helped them going forward.
“One of the things I thought a lot about during the pandemic,” said Anne, “was how the museum could continue to serve its publics although it was closed for physical entry. And so we spent a lot of time thinking about how to reinvent the museum as a virtual destination.”
Anne and Frank were interviewed by journalist Lisa Bartfai as part of the 含羞草研究室 Presents podcast series, which addresses current topics being considered in our classrooms, around our campus, and across culture and society.
Anne Collins Goodyear is a former curator of prints and drawings at the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, where she became the first curator to collect digital and time-based art. Frank H. Goodyear was curator of photographs at the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution. He is the author of ten peer-reviewed scholarly essays and five books.
