Alberta Mayo

Between 1975 and 1978, Alberta Mayo was the director of the Manitoba Museum of Finds Art (MMOFA), an exhibition space in the waiting area of the directors’ offices at SFMOMA. Mayo, then assistant to Director Henry Hopkins and Deputy Director Michael McCone, directed her own museum within “the other museum,” turning her administrative space into the venue for a range of solo and group exhibitions by artists who — with a few exceptions, like Sol LeWitt — were largely under SFMOMA’s programming radar.
