Do we trust ourselves, and our own capabilities so little? Is it the snobbery of “I can afford to get a person from overseas” the guiding or ‘misguiding’ factor? A friend of mine who has a gallery and had hired a person who was a 'whiter shade of pale' as the curator and director, when I asked him what her qualifications were, he mumbled and fumbled over his words. I filled in the gaps and said “you mean you hired her because she is white”! Of course, he was not pleased to hear this verbalized but am sure it played a huge, if not key role in her getting the position. Sad facts in our neck of the woods.
