GET TO KNOW OUR NEW DIRECTOR
A Q&A WITH DAVID ODO
After an extensive national search, David Odo was named the new director of the Georgia Museum of Art. Coming to the museum from Harvard Art Museums, where he was director of academic and public programs, division head and research curator, Odo made a name for himself by leading numerous initiatives that connected departments and schools across the university with the museums. Odo is a visual and material anthropologist, an expert on 19th-century Japanese photography and has published and lectured widely on that subject and museum pedagogy. His research and teaching interests are in the anthropology of art, the body in art and material culture and the intersections of art and medicine. He has a wealth of experience in research, teaching and museum leadership roles. What will he bring to the table as our new director? We sat down with him to get to know a little bit more about him.
