Mara Weiss is the lead curator of the Victoria & Albert Photography Centre, completed in 2023 in London. In this episode, we talked about her studies at Harvard and Princeton and her projects as Curator of Photography at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London since 2007. We discussed developments she has observed in the field of museum photography, such as the integration of photography into permanent spaces like at MoMA, but not yet at the V&A, and the importance of the acquisition group, which not only enables more acquisitions but also takes on new roles, such as organizing events and travels with patrons. She also gave us some advice for people who want to become curators in a museum like her. I hope you enjoy this episode!
