Lisa Phillips
Director, New Museum of Contemporary Art
The Bowery is officially a part of the 21st century, now that the NMCA has moved into its eye-catching, SANAA-designed new home there. Phillips, who spearheaded the New Museum's move, spent 23 years as a curator at the Whitney Museum before joining the New Museum as Director in 1999. She has overseen solo exhibitions by artists such as William Kentridge, Paul McCarthy, Carroll Dunham, and Andrea Zittel.
