After a much anticipated wait, the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA) has announced today the appointment of Suzanne Cotter as the Museum’s new Director.
Lorraine Tarabay, Chairman of the MCA Board of Directors, said: ‘We are thrilled that an Australian of Suzanne’s calibre will be returning to our shores to lead the MCA’s exciting next chapter. The Board was impressed by Suzanne’s depth and breadth of experience, international networks, extensive expertise in dealing with multiple stakeholders and her demonstrated capacity for artistic and strategic vision, ideally placing her to lead the Museum at this critical time.
‘Suzanne has worked across several important contemporary art institutions in Europe, the United States and the Middle East,’ continued Tarabay. ‘She is greatly respected by artists and her peers globally … She brings to the MCA an outstanding network of connections and international best practice in contemporary art museum management, programs, thought leadership and curatorial excellence.’
