Moderna Museet
Editing,Since late 2016 I have copy edited more than a dozen exhibition catalogues published by the Moderna Museet in Stockholm. In many cases, that work extends beyond ensuring the text adheres to the museum’s style guide, as when the essays were translated into English, for example, or written by people for whom English is a second language. My knowledge of modern and contemporary art also helps me to ask substantive questions that prod the authors to cite other scholars, close holes in their arguments, or consider alternate perspectives. After this work, I am now sufficiently trusted by the museum’s publications staff that I have recently been asked to edit one of the executive director’s major public statements.
