The Perez Art Museum Miami has named Naiomy Guerrero as inaugural curatorial fellow for the #Museum. The fellowship is for a two year term and is endowed by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation, the program aims to offer curatorial training to young professionals from historically underrepresented groups in curatorial and museum leadership. Guerrero’s work primarily as a writer but also on Instagram has long highlighted the intersection of "blackness" with the larger discourse of Latinx and Latin American art in general, and how that intersectionality has often been marginalized.
This sounds like its going to be a wonderful program for the community and we all here look forward to watching its progress over her coming tenure.
