Artistic director of Malba steps down after one year in role

Rodrigo Moura is stepping down as artistic director of the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (Malba) after only one year in the role. His departure follows the museum's acquisition of the Daros Latinamerica Collection, which doubled Malba's holdings with over 1,200 works and triggered a major institutional restructuring, including the creation of a new chief executive position. Moura, a Brazilian curator who previously worked at El Museo del Barrio, Masp, and Inhotim Institute, will leave next month as the museum prepares for its 25th anniversary and a physical expansion to twice its current capacity.
