Extremely excited to announce that I will be joining University Galleries as a new curator at the new 8,000-square-foot space. Though it is bittersweet to leave the amazing staff at @rockfordart museum, I am humbled to join the curatorial team comprised of director Barry Blinderman, senior curator Kendra Paitz and registrar Gabe Johnson.

New state-of-the-art electronic mobile storage carriages and art racks installed in our collection vault. From grant writing, bidding, construction, and completion, this was a huge project and it feels good to be done. @carrie_maebe @bursley_mack #artcollection #storagesystem #spacesaver #rockfordartmuseum (at Rockford Art Museum)

After an intense installation the Dzine exhibition is up. A lot of help from our curatorial interns and art student volunteers. If you are in the area stop through and see all the sparkle. (at Rockford Art Museum)

Hard to tell the difference between mall stores and galleries nowadays.

Just finished installing Dzine's massive mirror turntable on the painted wall. Everyone loves this piece, my back has a different opinion. See you at the opening this weekend. (at Rockford Art Museum)

@symbolsandnumbers lending a hand and his knowledge during the Dzine installation. Plus he is the only person nimble enough to jump into a wall and smart enough to make a neon piece come alive like it is an everyday occurrence. Thanks Jeremy! #neon #dzine (at Rockford Art Museum)
