This talk goes deep into the development of “Translating American Stories,” the first initiative to bring multiple languages into the MFA’s permanent collection galleries. Led by Layla Bermeo, Kristin and Roger Servison Curator of Paintings, Art of the Americas, the presentation explores the project’s collaborative process, outreach to community members from diverse backgrounds, and fresh interpretations of historical art in the collection.
