2007 is so last year, but I’m still going to break down and create my top-10 list of my IMA experiences for ‘007 (very focused on New Media). You’ll notice I’m not numbering any of these entries – there is no #1 – it’s just top ten. I’m also one of over 300 employees at the IMA, so this obviously is not a consensus list.

For me, 2007 was an amazing year at the IMA. Here are just a few of my favorite moments from the last 12 months:

*Filming in Paris and Rome for Roman Art from the Louvre webisodes.
*Interviewing video artist Sam Easterson for the exhibition Nature Holds My Camera.
*The backyard barbeque on the lawn of the IMA for the opening of Emily Kennerk: Suburban Nation.
*The launch of the IMA’s new Web site.

As anyone who knows me will tell you, I’m not one for picking absolute favorites. However, this year, it’s an easy decision. Far and away, my favorite memory of 2007 was the opening weekend of the exhibition Maria Magdalena Campos-Pons: Everything is Separated By Water. I can’t remember a happier time at work.
