Mini-Edit 1: What makes a work of art museum-worthy? With curator Laura Weinstein of the MFA Boston

The Indian Edit - A podcast by Nitasha Manchanda

Ever wonder how museums go shopping for art? What does a curator see when they look at a picture? What makes something special enough to spend a fortune on? Join me in this first mini-sode featuring Laura Weinstein, Ananda Coomaraswamy Curator of South Asian and Islamic Art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, as she gives us a ‘behind the scenes’ look at two recent acquisitions for the museum’s collection. We chat about Indian art under the British, William Dalrymple, and adorable squirrels!

P.S.
