Martino Stierli, a Swiss art history professor, has been appointed chief curator of architecture and design at the Museum of Modern Art, Glenn D. Lowry, the museum’s director announced Tuesday.
Mr. Stierli, who will start next March, succeeds Barry Bergdoll, who stepped down last year to teach art history at Columbia University and remains a part-time curator at MoMA.

Another European academic. Shocking choice, Lowry.
Those billionaire trustees care little about current design thought, they just want to hear that accent, and exhibits like "architecture of hedonism" (actual Stierli program) about Italian villas that they are looking to buy. His interest in Venturi will be appreciated by those trustees that own casinos in Vegas (no joke).
