She served as executive director of the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota from 2007 through 2017. CareerIn 2008 joined the Walker Art Center, leaving her post as Director of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden which she held since 2005. [1] She joined the Hirshhorn in 1995, working her way up from assistant curator. [2] Before that, Viso curated at the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach, Florida (1993–95) and at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia (1989–93). She is on the Board of Directors of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and belongs to the Association of Art Museum Directors.[3] Viso has curated many major exhibitions, including Ana Mendieta: Earth Body, Sculpture and Performance 1972-1985, a retrospective of about 100 works shown at the Hirshhorn and the Whitney Museum of American Art in 2004.[4] Another exhibition Viso curated was Jim Hodges: Give More Than You Take. This show traveled from the Dallas Museum of Art (October 6, 2013 – January 12, 2014) to the Walker Art Center (February 15–May 11, 2014) then on to the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston (June 5–September 1, 2014) and ended at UCLA Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (October 5, 2014 – January 17, 2015).[5] Viso resigned from her position as executive director of the Walker Art Center in 2017, and there was some speculation that her departure was related to the controversy surrounding Sam Durant's artwork Scaffold, though many museum professionals have publicly expressed support for Viso's handling of the work's reception.[6] References1. ^{{cite news|title=Olga Viso Appointed Director of the Walker Art Center|url=http://www.artforum.com/archive/id=15801|accessdate=3 October 2015|work=Artforum|date=October 2015}} {{authority control|VIAF=76532786}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Viso, Olga}}2. ^{{cite news| last = Abbe, Mary| title = Walker Art Center hires 'rising star' to take helm| publisher = Avista Capital Partners|work=Star Tribune| date = 2007-09-11| url =http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/art/11384796.html|accessdate=2009-06-02| archiveurl =https://web.archive.org/web/20071217091845/http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/art/11384796.html| archivedate =2007-12-17}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=National Endowment for the Arts Announces Three New Members of the National Council on the Arts|url=http://arts.gov/news/2013/national-endowment-arts-announces-three-new-members-national-council-arts|accessdate=3 October 2015|work=National Endowment for the Arts|date=21 November 2013}} 4. ^{{cite news|last1=Camhi|first1=Leslie|title=Art; Her Body, Herself|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2004/06/20/arts/art-her-body-herself.html|accessdate=3 October 2015|work=The New York Times|date=20 June 2004}} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Knight|first1=Christopher|title=Loss permeates Jim Hodges' art; prepare for heartbreak|url=http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/arts/la-et-cm-jim-hodges-hammer-museum-review-20141014-column.html|accessdate=3 October 2015|work=Los Angeles Times|date=13 October 2014}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.artnews.com/2017/11/17/announcement-olga-viso-will-step-walker-director-museum-professionals-largely-praise-handling-scaffold-controversy/|title=After Announcement That Olga Viso Will Step Down as Walker Director, Museum Professionals Largely Praise Handling of ‘Scaffold’ Controversy|last=Russeth|first=Andy Battaglia, Sarah Douglas, and Andrew|date=2017-11-17|website=ARTnews|language=en-US|access-date=2018-04-27}} 6 : 1966 births|Living people|Directors of museums in the United States|Women museum directors|Modern art museums in the United States|American people of Cuban descent |
