New Endowments, MFA

The Museum of Fine Arts announced two, newly endowed curatorial positions. (The endowments are new; the curators are not.)

Fidelity's Roger Servison, president of the MFA trustees, and his wife, Kristin, have endowed Carol Troyen's post as curator of paintings in the MFA's Art of the Americas department. (Troyen curated the upcoming Edward Hopper exhibition.)

William Pounds, ex-chairman of the trustees board, and his wife, Helen, endowed Anne Nishimura Morse's position, curator of Japanese art. Morse curated one of my favorite, recent shows, "Art of the Japanese Postcard."
