Career Moves: Fresh Starts 

Several leadership changes were announced at Asia’s major art institutions. On April 1, Eugene Tan, the current director of the National Gallery Singapore (NGS) and Singapore Art Museum (SAM), took over as CEO of both institutions from Chong Siak Ching. He was also appointed head of the Visual Arts Cluster, comprising NGS, SAM, and STPI gallery.

In Hong Kong, M+ named Russell Storer as its new senior curator and head of curatorial affairs. Before joining the museum of visual culture in March, Storer was the head curator of international art at the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra. Departing Hong Kong, Xue Tan, the founding senior curator of Tai Kwun Contemporary, was appointed chief curator at the Haus der Kunst in Munich. As head of exhibitions and programs beginning in June, Tan will replace Emma Enderby, who is set to become the director of the KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin.
