Lauren Hinkson joined the curatorial staff in 2008. She conducts permanent collection research with a focus on modern, contemporary, and time-based art.

Recently, she has begun curating presentations of the Guggenheim collection for venues abroad, including the forthcoming exhibition Il Guggenheim: l'Avanguardia americana, 1945–1980 at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome, which will open in February 2011.
