Spotlight: NYFA’s David Terry Up For Election To CAA Board

We are pleased to announce that NYFA’s Director of Programs/Curator, David Terry, has been nominated to be one of six candidates for election to the College Art Association (CAA) Board of Directors for the upcoming 2014-18 term. 

Susan Ball, Deputy Director, Bruce Museum, Greenwich, Connecticut; Executive Director Emerita, College Art Association, says of David:

 “David Terry is an ideal candidate for the CAA Board of Directors—he is an accomplished, active sculptor with a record of impressive peer award recognition, in addition to serving as director of programs at the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA). NYFA, despite the implication of geographic limitation, serves contemporary artists in all disciplines—visual, performing, and literary—around the world.

David would bring to CAA the vision of both an independent artist and an administrator, whose professional portfolio includes awarding fellowships and providing extensive professional-development programs and opportunities that include both hands-on training and vast online resources, as well as exhibitions, performances, and curatorial opportunities.

CAA has an impressive track record of providing professional-development opportunities; David would be a valued asset in furthering these goals. Likewise, he would add to the important roster of contemporary artists who have served on the CAA Board of Directors.”

The four candidates receiving the most votes by CAA members will be elected to the board during the Annual Conference next week in Chicago. CAA members: Cast your vote now!
