Museum of Contemporary Art Director Klaus Biesenbach will take on a new role as artistic director, the museum announced Thursday, in a restructuring that will bring on a yet-to-be-named executive director.
Together, MOCA said, Biesenbach and the executive director will join at the helm to oversee all aspects of the museum. Both will report to the MOCA board.
An email announcing the restructuring went out to MOCA staffers Thursday.
Biesenbach will focus on programming, collections and exhibitions, international and digital outreach as well as fundraising and development, the letter stated. He also will work toward “increasing the museum’s cultural visibility and artist relations, while at the same time growing the museum’s international profile and partnerships.”
