The National Gallery of Canada has named Kitty Scott as its new deputy director and chief curator.
Scott will return to the Ottawa museum, where she served as contemporary art curator from 2000 to 2006, to assume her new role on Jan. 6.
Director and CEO Sasha Suda says Scott is the first woman to permanently hold the chief curator position.
Scott boasts 25 years of experience at art institutions in Canada and abroad, most recently working at the Art Gallery of Ontario, where she worked with Suda.
“I am excited to lead a team that thinks about significant treasures from the past alongside important contemporary works of art from around the world, as a way to imagine our future,” said Ms. Scott. Read the full release here: <a href="https://t.co/w4FKGFLSrm">https://t.co/w4FKGFLSrm</a>
