Malcolm A. Rogers, CBE (born October 3, 1948 in Scarborough) is an English art historian who served as the Ann and Graham Gund Director of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston from 1994 through 2015. An expert on portraiture, Rogers has published extensively on the subject. ==Career== A native of Scarborough, North Yorkshire, Rogers was educated at Oakham School and later went on to receive degrees from Magdalen College, and Christ Church of the University of Oxford, where he earned a B.A. with first class honors and a D.Phil. in English. Rogers served as deputy director at the National Portrait Gallery in London, and in 1994, he was appointed the Ann and Graham Gund Director of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where he remained until being replaced by Matthew Teitelbaum in 2015. A year after his appointment as director, Rogers undertook many building renovation projects including the openings of the museum's historic side entrances, which had been previously inaccessible. In addition, Rogers eliminated admission fees for children aged seventeen and under, and instituted a series of free public days. In 1999, Rogers helped launch the Nagoya/Boston Museum of Fine Arts in Nagoya, Japan as a sister museum in order to internationalize the museum's brand. Rogers led the fundraising campaign that raised over $500 million to build a new wing for the museum's American art collection, which was completed in 2008. The wing was designed by the London-based architecture firm of Foster and Partners. In 2010, a glass-enclosed courtyard was built adjacent to the new wing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Malcolm Rogers (curator)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
