Kent Roberts, exhibition design manager and chief preparator, SFMOMA

Contemporary art often defies traditional categorization, extending beyond conventional notions of painting and sculpture. As a result, many artworks pose unique challenges during installation in the galleries. Roberts discusses some of the creative behind-the-scenes solutions developed by the crew at SFMOMA, highlighting recent installations of large-scale works by Matthew Barney, Olafur Eliasson, and others.
