Neil, Director of the Chrysler Museum of Art<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Erik H. Neil came to the Chrysler Museum of Art in 2014. As director, he has reaffirmed the strong community focus of the institution with public programs and outreach and revitalized the exhibition program. The Chrysler has also enjoyed significant advancements in digital technology and diversity under Neil\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n\n<p>His commitment to employing the skills of the Museum\u2019s talented staff has resulted in several Chrysler-curated exhibitions, including Thomas Jefferson, Architect: Palladian Models, Democratic Principles and the Conflict of Ideals; Americans in Spain: Painting and Travel, 1820\u20131920; Alma W. Thomas: Everything Is Beautiful and upcoming exhibition Black Orpheus: Jacob Lawrence &amp; the Mbari Club. Each exhibition includes a catalog with new scholarship that provides a fuller understanding of these artists as well as their practices, contributions and connections to the present day. With the support of an anonymous donor, the Chrysler opened the Wonder Studio, its first interactive gallery for children, in 2018. Neil has also worked consistently to bring greater diversity to the Museum\u2019s exhibitions, programs, staff and Board of Trustees.<\/p>\n\n<p>Neil has been leading museums for more than 20 years and was first named director of Newcomb Art Gallery of Tulane University in 1999. Earlier in his career, he was an active curator and worked with many notable artists, including James Turrell, Carrie Mae Weems and Tony Oursler. He has also published books and essays in the History of Architecture, the History of Photography and Contemporary Art. He holds bachelor\u2019s, master\u2019s and doctoral degrees from Princeton and Harvard Universities and has been awarded numerous grants and fellowships from institutions such as the Getty Leadership Institute, the Mellon Foundation, Dumbarton Oaks and the Canadian Centre for Architecture. The breadth of his artistic interests, collaborative approach to work and leadership and ability to build community have cemented the Chrysler Museum as a forerunner in the museum world.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1392\" height=\"1496\" src=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/DeWitt_Lloyd_headshot.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/DeWitt_Lloyd_headshot.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/DeWitt_Lloyd_headshot-279x300.jpg 279w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/DeWitt_Lloyd_headshot-953x1024.jpg 953w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/DeWitt_Lloyd_headshot-768x825.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1392px) 100vw, 1392px\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n<p><strong>Lloyd DeWitt, Chief Curator and Irene Leache Curator of European Art of the Chrysler Museum of Art<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D. is recognized not only for his exhibitions, but for his scholarship, publications, and expertise as an educator.
