THE PRESIDENCY OF THE MONTREAL MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS IN 2020


THE PRESIDENCY OF THE MONTREAL MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS IN 2020
By Bernard Bujold - 
More and more media and Quebec personalities are calling for the resignation of the current president of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Michel de la Chenelière.
For one, Monique Jérôme Forget has publicly suggested that the Chairman of the Board be replaced at the MBAM; and La Presse columnist François Cardinal is one of the many columnists calling for a change of direction on the Board of the MBAM. 
According to observers, Michel de la Chenelière is a Chairman who, since his appointment, has been visiting the museum's offices every day to participate in management decisions. A Board Chair must inspire, but he is not the Director General... 
Personally, I had known former president Bernard Lamarre (1931-2016). Quite the opposite of La Chenelière! 
Bernard Lamarre became Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in 1983. He supervised the Picasso exhibition in 1984, consisting of personal works on loan from Jacqueline Picasso. He remained president from 1983 to 2008, a period of 25 years. 
De la Chenelière may have lasted only one year... 
To be continued!
