Examining committee chair: Dr. Janice RutherfordToday’s global economy facilitates and increasingly demands international collaboration worldwide. Throughout history there have been recurring short-term, and more recently longer-term, agreements of exchange among the world’s flagship museums and galleries. A growing number of partnerships are also occurring between institutions of lesser stature, often in locations outside of the world’s traditional cultural centers.
