ANNE BARLOW APPOINTED EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF ART IN GENERAL

Art in General has announced that Anne J. Barlow will be the organization’s new executive director. She will replace Holly Block, who left the downtown nonprofit last August to become executive director of the Bronx Museum of Arts. Barlow was most recently curator of education and media programs at the New Museum of Contemporary Art, a position she held for seven years. Her new position takes effect on January 8, 2007, just a few weeks prior to the reopening of Art in General’s sixth-floor gallery, newly redesigned by Steven Learner Studio.
