Anne, You are a national treasure. The competitive nature of the art world is an understatement. You handle that pressure with grace and passion. Look forward to more of your discussions.
Although I do not understand English, but I'm trying to learn I was watching until the end, I was delighted to see the works of Pablo Picasso. I loved the curator Anne Umland, a very kind and smiling person transmitting knowledge about art, waiting for more MOMA videos. A big hug from Recife, Brazil
It would be great to see live tours on the paintings as you did about Picasso today. It was super informative and so real though just on RUclips. Looking forward to seeing next videos. Best regards from Russia.
Wonderful talk. Loved this. Learned something and most of all got to meet one of the very smart people who make the walls and spaces of museums come alive.
That Gonzales-Torres piece is unforgettable. I first saw it at the Art Institute of Chicago. The action of taking a piece and knowing its deterioration and what it symbolized moved me to tears. Such a bummer about the Sophie Taeuber-Arp exhibition this year. :(
This was so helpful!! I’m in my senior year of my undergrad and am planning to study art history in graduate school and hope to obtain my PhD. I want to work as a museum curator and this answered a lot of questions that have been circling in my worried brain! Thank you.
This wonderful video just helped me shift my career path! Ms. Umland is so intelligent, passionate, and seems like a delightful human. For any curators or related art museum staff out there, would one recommend a double major in Marketing and Art History or Management and Art History to help aid in job competition?
Thanks so much for your question! Here's a response from Anne: "Dear Avery, I'm so glad you enjoyed the Live Q&A and shared your question. Having management, business, or marketing experience, in addition to an art history background, can never hurt. On the other hand, immersing yourself in one field and developing a specialty, exploring career possibilities via internships, and then going on for another degree in a different field with a clear sense of purpose regarding what you want to achieve might prove more satisfying in the long run. I wish you good luck, and thank you for being in touch."
How would you define the difference between modern and contemporary art beside the living aspect of the artist with regard to style, technique, projection, vision and objectives, for example?
To provide a bit of context to my question, I visited the British Museum recently which, while not strictly an Art Museum, had an interesting section of gallery space. While most of the museum was blank, leaving the focus solely on the artefacts, one of the sections was styled like the original 19th Century museum with bookcases, bringing the history of the museum closer to the fore. In the Louvre the ceilings often maintain the Rococo and gilded paintings, to again highlight the building's history pre-revolution. Does MoMA feature elements in this way that highlight the building or institution rather than the artwork?
As you said, "I wanted to be an Artist" but you were not anything good at that. Were you able to paint and what was the outcome? Do you have the photo of your work. Bec I am now painting but I dont know if my work is good at all, so I'm looking for gallery to send my work to, otherwise I may have to resort to solo exhibition
I am always astonished to think that the painting behind her is probably worth 300 million dollars and there it is just hanging up there on the wall for anyone to walk up to.
Listening to her giving the historical backdrop, I cant help but think how bland and uninspiring, unnecessarily materialistic 21st century life really is...
You can tell she really loves her job. Love it
her knowledge in all the pieces is so mind boggling. I barely remember what I ate yesterday. it's so nice to hear her talk passionately about art.
I can listen to her explain / interpret the works all day.
she's literally the cutest thing in the whole world and a smol bean 😆omg i love people who are really passionate about their jobs and profession
Anne, You are a national treasure. The competitive nature of the art world is an understatement. You handle that pressure with grace and passion. Look forward to more of your discussions.
Anne Umland you are a hoot! Thank you for doing the live stream. Who wouldn't want you to curate their museum shows?

Anne is enchanting! Thank you for this Q&A from someone who is about to make a career change more geared towards the art world.

She's so charming.
What a knowledge book and interesting lady

Very well done, nice camera work.

Great video!
My dream. My desire. My goal. To be a curator for the MoMA! - from an undergrad at NMSU.
goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood video!!! I'm a contemporary artist :) Greetings from Milan 🥰🥰🥰
If you have a chance to do live around 15:00 ny time, cuz it's too late in Europe) thank you!
How do you know a work of art is a masterpiece?
A question about a curating decision. Why is the object of the guitar placed so much higher than the paintings?
Hi I have a question, how do you find new contemporary artworks and new young talented artists?
You have to make large pieces.
MY FAVORİTE ERTİST PICASSO.
she's so cute
I wonder when we’re going to see something new
