In 2007, Carol Huh was appointed the first curator of contemporary art at the Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, which together constitute the National Museum for Asian Art at the Smithsonian Institution. Through exhibitions and public programs, she is responsible for further developing the Galleries’ effort to present the works of artists who explore current environments of social change and artistic production related to Asia. Recent projects have included exhibitions of works by Y.Z. Kami, Anish Kapoor, and Hai Bo as part of the museum’s ongoing Perspectives series, as well as a new initiative entitled Moving Perspectives, a series of exhibitions featuring video art. A native Washingtonian, Huh is a graduate of Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences.
