IAN POTTER MUSEUM OF ART’S DIRECTOR RESIGNS
Kelly Gellatly, Director of the Ian Potter Museum of Art at the University of Melbourne, has announced her resignation after seven and half years in the role.
In a statement released on Friday, Gellatly said: ‘I am very proud of what we have accomplished under my leadership at the Potter. We have delivered an ambitious and engaging program of exhibitions and academic and public programs for the University community and beyond, supported by strategic partnerships and collaborations that have enabled the Museum to realise projects that would have otherwise been beyond its own capacity. To name but a few, these have included the Basil Sellers Art Prize, and landmark exhibitions such as EXIT, in partnership with the Cartier Foundation, Paris, presented as part of the ART+CLIMATE=CHANGE Festival and An Illumination: The Rothschild Prayer Book & other works from the Kerry Stokes Collection c.1280-1650.
