Nicole Berry departs The Armory Show for senior development position at Hammer Museum in Los Angeles
Nicole Berry is stepping down as executive director of The Armory Show after eight years to become the senior director of donor engagement at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles. Frieze is already searching for a new director for The Armory Show, following their recent acquisition of the fair. Berry’s departure coincides with the news of the museum’s current director, Ann Philbin, stepping down in November. Berry’s accomplishments include successfully relocating The Armory Show to the Javits Center in 2021 and navigating the fair through the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic. Her new role at the Hammer Museum marks a period of transition for the institution.
