A message from the Board of Artspace

We are writing to let you know that Artspace Chair, Peter Wilson, has advised the Board of Directors of his intention to step down as Chair and as a member of the Board. This decision follows his and his family’s commitment as much valued advocates and supporters of Artspace over many years.

The Artspace Board warmly thanks Peter for his service as Chair and as a director of the board. During Peter’s tenure as Chair, he has made significant contributions including:

  • Oversight of initiatives to augment Artspace’s profile and supporter base, demonstrated in part by the success of its first Gala Fundraiser and Benefit Auction

  • Commencing the process of Board renewal, with the appointments of Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran and Zoe Paulsen

  • Successfully leading the recruitment process for a new Director, culminating in the appointment of Victor Wang, who was previously Executive and Artistic Director of M Woods Museum, Beijing

  • Embarking on a program to consolidate and refresh Artspace’s strategic vision for the future

Peter said:
'Artspace is an important institution with a bright future. With Victor’s appointment, it is the right time for the Board renewal process to continue, including my role. I am very grateful for the support of my fellow directors and the team during my tenure and will watch Artspace’s progress with interest and affection.'

On behalf of the Artspace community, we express our gratitude to Peter for his leadership and commitment. The Board of Artspace extends Peter our very best wishes as we look to the future, equipped with the skills to execute an exciting and speculative vision of radical thinking and new partnerships.

Warm regards,
The Board of Directors of Artspace
