Meet Guggenheim's first black curator, Ashley James:
On November 14th, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum announced the appointment of Ashley James as Associate Curator, Contemporary Art. James’ work merges curatorial practice with an academic background rooted in African American studies, English literature, and women’s, gender, and sexuality studies. James will occupy her position as the first full-time black curator in the museum’s 60 year history, showing their commitment to diversity and inclusion.
Previously, James was an assistant curator of contemporary art at the Brooklyn Museum, where she was the driving force behind the acclaimed exhibition “Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power.” She also played a key role in development, public programs, and acquisitions at the Brooklyn Museum, including helping to bring works by Ed Clark, Arthur Jafa, Taryn Simon, and other key contemporary artists into the collection.
