55. David Glasser
David Glasser is the two decade Chairman & CEO of the Ben Uri Gallery and Museum in the U.K. and oversaw its recreation as the first full-scale virtual art museum and research center. Ben Uri Gallery and Museum was founded in 1915 in Whitechapel's Jewish ghetto in the East End of London, by émigré Russian artist Lazar Berson who previously exhibited with Chagall in Paris. In 2000, a new strategic direction was built around scholarship and expanding the remit from solely Jewish artists by incorporating the wider, diverse immigrant artist experience in Britain since 1900.
Glasser and Zuckerman discuss the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design and the founding goal, museum relevancy in the 21st century, defining distinctive strength, doing a collections audit, being a public benefit, women refugees to the UK post WWII, a safe house for artists, a 24% female artist collection, mainstreaming a museum strategy, how few people actually visit some physical museums, why a digital museum is so compelling, global as the new local, deaccessioning, and being brave enough!
