In this case, Gary Garrels, curator at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art:
Until last week, Gary Garrels was senior curator of painting and sculpture at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA). He resigned his position after museum employees circulated a petition that accused him of racism and demanded his immediate ouster.
So why is this noted here? Two of my favourite albums in my music offerings are those of Sister Juliana Garza. It wasn’t easy to get information on her for a long time; one of the first places that it turned up was on the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art’s website. Unfortunately I’ve lost the link to it, but it helped in reconstructing her life and the origins of her music.
Although I’m not sure Garrels had anything to do with this, it should not be held to his charge by anyone, because Sister Juliana was delightfully Hispanic.
