A warm welcome to CIMAM to Eugenio Viola!
“Joining CIMAM's global network of art museum experts would provide me with an inspiring possibility for exchange and discussion with peers and colleagues about responding to the evolving needs of modern and contemporary art institutions. Enriching my visions, perspectives, and objectives would be an invaluable opportunity. At the same time, I believe my innovative ideas, experience, and professionality could support the organization".
