An invitation from curator Orlando Hernández Ying to visit the museum’s collection of Precolumbian art on the third floor 👋

Hérnandez Ying is NOMA’s Lapis Curator of the Arts of the Americas, the first permanent curatorial role at the museum decorated to an expanded look at the arts of North, Central, and South America.

His research focuses on the art of the ancient Americas, the Spanish American viceroyalties, and modern and contemporary Latin America.

Over the next few years, Hernández Ying is working on a major permanent installation at NOMA that takes an expansive and inclusive look at “American art” over time—a project supported by the Terra Foundation for American Art.
