Chad Weinard is the Manager of New Media at the North Carolina Museum of Art. He studied art and design at Duke, interactive design at NYU’s ITP and earned a Doctorate (ABD, alas) in Art History from the Institute of Fine Arts. Chad’s worked with the curatorial departments at the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York; he’s a former GlaxoSmithKline Curatorial Fellow at the NCMA. Buy him a good cup of coffee and he’ll chat with you about his dissertation on Rauschenberg and Black Mountain College…or Twitter…or iPhones in the galleries…or vintage letterpresses…or museum collection websites.
