MOCA Los Angeles Brings In an Outsider's Eye to Lead the Museum

Jonathan Abbott, who most recently led the nonprofit GBH, has been named the new director of the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles. The appointment marks a departure from the museum's usual playbook, drawing its next leader from outside the traditional art-world track. MOCA's board will now look to Abbott to steer one of the city's defining contemporary art institutions forward.
